Depending on the percentage of biodiesel included, combustion of biodiesel emits lower levels of hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter. Compared to conventional diesel, emissions of nitrous oxide increase gradually as the percentage of biodiesel in the blend increases, up to about 10 percent greater at B100.
