Biofuel Products:
Biodiesel:
- Biodiesel is a clean burning, biodegradable, non-toxic alternative fuel produced from
renewable resources such as agricultural seed oil, recovered used vegetable oil, yellow grease, and tallow;
- Biodiesel significantly reduces most regulated vehicle emissions, including lifecycle greenhouse gases;
- Biodiesel is completely miscible with petroleum diesel, can be used in existing diesel
engines with little or no system modifications required, and its use increases fuel lubricity and reduces engine wear;
- For more details and facts about biodiesel, including environmental benefits, visit the Canadian
Renewable Fuels Association website at:

Ethanol:
- Ethanol is a renewable fuel produced by fermenting and distilling simple sugars from agricultural
crops and feedstocks, and it can also be made from cellulosic materials such as forestry waste and municipal solid waste.
- Ethanol molecules contain oxygen, allowing automotive engines to more completely combust
fuel, thereby resulting in fewer emissions;
- Fuel ethanol blends can be successfully used in all types of vehicles and engines that
require gasoline;
