Renewable Fuel Standard Prcess Tracking system t measure RFS2 cmpliance Each qualifying galln f renewable fuel has its wn unique number called a renewable identificatin number (RIN) Every galln f B100 prduced generates D4 class RINs The RIN value is determined by the market as they area tradable cmmdity Fuels (nt just bidiesel) have different energy levels. A bidiesel D4 galln has 50% mre energy than ethanl and is wrth the value f the D4 RIN x 1.5 Obligated parties meet their EPA-regulated vlume bligatin by blending renewable fuel r instead accumulating (buying) RINs RINs are detachable and trade actively amng prducers, bligated parties, and traders RIN prices are a mechanism t balance supply and demand.

Des nt help an engine Bidiesel has a lw cetane, s less pwer, pr perfrmance Bidiesel is limited t summer mnths Reality Almst all d: OEMs making diesel engines cver engines 100% when using up t a 20% blend f bidiesel t diesel N truth t this. Als, 70% f bidiesel is made frm waste cking ils and waste animal fats, fish il and inedible crn il etc. N truth t this. Many types f grease can be cnditined t make the highest quality bidiesel. Sme at very lw cst. N truth t this: During the first mnth f use all fuel line filters shuld be checked as the bidiesel will be cleaning build-up in lines, tank and injectrs... and leaving it in the filters. N truth t this: Bidiesel acts an engine lubricant supplanting sulfur when diesel fuel cntained 2000 ppm sulfur, nw its belw 15 ppm by law N truth t this: Bidiesel has a 47 t 51 cetane vs. diesel at abut 40. Engines run smther N truth t this: A 20% blend (B20) Bidiesel can be used all year, and dwn t temperatures as lw as- 30 F
