I do not understand this: "The challenge in the San Joaquin Valley is "ground level ozone" and therefore biodiesel has to be combined with tailpipe filters and sparkplug combustion effieciency changes."
Biodiesel would reduce the need for tailpipe filters. And what would it have to do with "sparkplugs"? = = = Original message = = = Joe - I helped a large biodiesel company with finding site location of biodiesel fueling terminal in San Joaquin Valley of California. Majority of regulations and similar information you need is public domain. Some public government organizations will assist you. Depends on your area. As Peggy said, it depends on what you want to do. Sell direct to end-users? Act as a distributor? Wholesaler? In our case, the plan was to simply ship the biodiesel by railcar from Eastern United States to San Joaquin Valley, California. Typically the biodiesel is premixed and comes in those big cylindrical tanker cars. We looked for an industrial type area with a rail spur with access to heat. Why heat? Because commercial biodiesel has a certain "wax point" and coagulates when it reaches a certain temperature. So for large commercial volumeso you need to keep in warm if standing still in one place and exposed to cool temperatures. The challenge in the San Joaquin Valley is "ground level ozone" and therefore biodiesel has to be combined with tailpipe filters and sparkplug combustion effieciency changes. Good luck to you.
