What is the difference between Biodiesel and Ethanol?
Biodiesel is a renewable fuel for diesel engines derived from natural oils like soy oil. (90 percent of biodiesel is produced from soy, 10 percent from recycled cooking oil.) Ethanol is an alcohol product produced from corn, sorghum, potatoes, wheat, sugar cane and biomass such as cornstalks and vegetable waste. When combined with gasoline, it increases octane levels while also promoting more complete fuel burning that reduces harmful emissions such as carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons.
