How safe is biodiesel?
Most people are familiar with gasoline, so they rarely question its safety. However, people who are unaccustomed to renewable fuels may have misconceptions or doubts about their safety in vehicle applications.For more information on Biodiesel Production and Quality (28K), provided by the National Biodiesel Board. Biodiesel is made from natural, renewable resources such as vegetable oils, animal fats and recycled cooking oils. It is less toxic than table salt and as biodegradable as sugar. In its pure form it can be handled, stored and transported with the same guidelines as vegetable oil. As with all renewable fuels, adequate training is recommended to operate and maintain biodiesel vehicles.
