Biodiesel 101: Learning the basics



Here's a story I could have used the other day when I made a mistake about the products used to manufacture biodiesel fuel. For those new to the concept or who could use a refresher course on the latest in biodiesel basics, this guide from the Des Moines Register is worth reading.

The story goes over the pros and cons of biodiesel and its current impact on the fuel supply. There are specific references of concern to Iowa residents and biodiesel's economic impact. The story also covers the challenges ahead to integrate more biodiesel into the fuel supply and what it means to the country's food supply.
