Your Single Source for Biodiesel Quality Testing in Compliance with ASTM D 6751 & EN 14214
Oct 28 2008
FAMEs are produced during a transesterification process, where organically derived oil are combined with methanol and chemical modified. FAME can be blended with petroleum diesel (mostly 5% = B5), 20% for B20 or used as pure biodiesel (B100).
FAME as blending component for fuels needs to comply with the fuel
specifications EN 14214 or ASTM D 6751.
The presence of free glycerol and glycerides in FAME used as diesel fuel may lead to injector deposits, clogged fueling systems, filter plugging, and adversely effect cold weather operation. Linolenic and poly-unsaturated esters display a strong effect on oxidative stability of the FAME.
