Title: What is the difference between renewable diesel and traditional biodiesel?
Post by: Tom Reed on October 25, 2022, 12:35:46 PM
I'm posting this article because many people are not familiar with Renewable diesel. I learned about it from a friend who drives truck for a petroleum distributor. Renewable is molecularly identical to regular diesel and is a drop in replacement. It's also very low to no carbon. So why don't we here more about this instead of electric cars???

High-quality renewable diesel (also known as Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil or HVO) and traditional biodiesel (also known as Fatty Acid Methyl Ester or FAME) are often confused. They are, however, different products, even though both are made from organic biomasses. The differences can be found, for example, in their production process, cleanliness, and quality.
