NREL Research Points Path to Higher Blends of Biodiesel

NREL researchers have identified strategies to blend more biomass-based diesel fuel into petroleum diesel. Barriers that are currently preventing the use of greater percentages of biomass-based diesel fuel blended into petroleum diesel have been identified, along with strategies to overcome them, according to researchers at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). The bio-derived diesel fuel

Federal Biofuel Policies Likely To Drive Demand For U.S. Corn, Soybeans

The supply of U.S. corn and soybeans has grown over the past decade and is projected to increase further in the coming years. In the past, large supplies have been partly absorbed by both export markets and biofuel production. However, going forward, exports are unlikely to grow sufficiently to offset projected supply increases. Instead, demand

Biodiesel And The Cummins X15: Low-Carbon Power For 2027 And Beyond

For nearly 20 years, biodiesel has been approved by Cummins for use in its on-highway diesel engines. Cummins’ iconic workhorse, the X15 diesel, is approved to run up to B20 which contains up to 20% biodiesel mostly obtained from soybeans. Fleets and owner-operators using biodiesel in the X15 have long-enjoyed greater lubricity, lower emissions and
