Biodiesel is a renewable fuel that allows reductions in GHG (Greenhouse Gas) of about 97% compared to conventional diesel and also reduces tailpipe emissions. This is a clean, non-toxic and biodegradable, made from renewable resources biofuel (oil plant, recycled cooking oil or animal fat) and serves as a substitute for petro diesel in diesel engines.

More specifically, it is a methyl ester obtained by chemical reaction (according to a method called transesterification) with a light alcohol and fats. It can be used 100% pure (B100) as an alternative fuel or blended with petro-diesel in concentrations of 2% (B2), 5% (B5) and 20% (B20). Unlike some other biofuels, there requires no modification or adjustment, either in the engine system components power system or fuel storage.
