DOES THE TAIL-PIPE EXHAUST FROM THE COMPRESSION-IGNITION OF BIODIESEL EMIT A BIG BLACK PLUME?
Nope! The bad reputation of diesel engine in the 70’s and 80’s was caused by black clouds coming from the vehicles at the time. It nearly was a death-blow to the entire diesel passenger vehicle market. ASTM D6751 biodiesel emits dramatically cleaner emissions. One of our test vehicles is a 1981 Mercedes 240D. If you rev the engine to high you will produce a small amount of white exhaust. Another one of our test vehicles is a 2006 Hummer H1 Alpha. We run it on a 50/50 blend of biodiesel and petrol diesel #2. There are virtually no noticeable emissions when we run this vehicle. It is truly amazing how clean biodiesel really burns.
