Subject | biodiesel for construction diesels |
Comment | Since biodiesel is far less polluting than diesel, I feel a good solution would be to require construction and farm diesel operators to either install emissions equipment or use biodiesel instead of diesel which may require a cheaper fuel line retrofit. My preference would be to install both the emissions equipment and use biodiesel (B99 or B100). This would definitely make a huge impact on diesel particulate emissions but biodiesel use alone would greatly impact air quality. No biodiesel available in your area? That is something that needs work because oil companies are denying some fuel station owners the right to sell biodiesel. If there is anything the Air Resources Board can do to help this, please do so. I made the switch to biodiesel which I use in my BMW thanks to the owner of a private fuel station. As of yet, no commercial stations are allowed to carry biodiesel. |
