Posted: December 22nd
The federal Renewable Fuel Standard program (RFS-2) has mandated significant use of “biomass-based” diesel in the United States. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has concluded that the volumes of biodiesel blended in the Texas Low Emission Diesel (TxLED) market to meet these requirements will have no measurable negative impact on Texas’ air quality. Consequently, TCEQ now allows biodiesel to be added to any TxLED compliant fuel, at any ratio, without additional additization.
