Posted: December 22nd

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.
