Which fuel is more environmentally friendly, vegetable oil fuel or biodiesel?
Because its source is entirely plant material, SVO fuel captures the full benefit of the carbon cycle. It is 100 percent carbon neutral and does not make any net contribution to greenhouse gases. On the other hand, biodiesel is usually blended and sold commercially as B-5 or B-20, meaning that it is mixed with 80 to 95 percent petrodiesel, a main contributor to greenhouse gases.
