Biodiesel has a number of standards for its quality. Main article: Biodiesel Biodiesel sampleThe European standard for biodiesel is EN 14214, which is translated into the respective national standards for each country that forms the CEN (European Committee for Standardization) area e.g., for the United Kingdom, BS EN 14214 and for Germany DIN EN 14214. It may be used outside the CEN area as well. The main difference that exists between EN 14214 standards of different countries is the national annex detailing climate related requirements of biodiesel in different CEN member countries. Other international standards published by ASTM International include:
There are also DIN standards for three different varieties of biodiesel, which are made of different oils:
The standards ensure that the following important factors in the fuel production process are satisfied:
Basic industrial tests to determine whether the products conform to the standards typically include gas chromatography, a test that verifies only the more important of the variables above. Tests that are more complete are more expensive. Fuel meeting the quality standards is very non-toxic, with a toxicity rating (LD50) of greater than 50 mL/kg. From Wikipedia under the
GNU Free Documentation License I want to make biodiesel to sell on the open market...how much can I expect to get for it per gallon? Q. My biodiesel would be ASTM-certified, made from waste cooking oil only, and would comply with BQ-9000 standards. How much could I expect to wholesale it for, to brokers or retailers, per gallon please? Thanks!! Asked by windnsea - Sun Jul 22 03:14:45 2007 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. The cost for equiptment till profit far outways this venture in the current marketplace, unless it's for personal use. People are still weary about putting used frying oil in their 60,000 Benz. And when it does become more mainstream you can forget about getting the free cooking oil from fast food joints, they will catch on and pretty soon there will be Mcdonalds brand bio-fuel, and bye bye profits.

Q. Alright, if i was in congress, i would implement a bill that would eliminate ethanol subsidies and give it to petroleum based diesel (to get food prices down), also we would implement more nuclear, wind, and water turbine power plants for home power (to cut down on oil usage and stop coal usage for home power..), after that we would use coal to oil technology to get 50% of gasoline and 25% of diesel to be from coal ( i know its not "green", but with the home power coming from mostly "green" sources i feel that it would offset), we would also subsidize biodiesel to the point that we could blend bio to make B25 biodiesel for standard use. So, home power is from mostly "green" sources, transportation fuel (gas and diesel) is 50% made in… [cont.] Asked by texasfan_16 - Mon Mar 31 01:47:29 2008 - - 7 Answers - 0 Comments A. You're correct except for the coal power. Coal can be used cleanly. You just have to put in scrubbers and bag houses, which takes emissions down below legal requirements. How do you get gasoline and fuel from coal (coal to oil technology)? You left me in the dust on that one. Your plan is a good one, you just have to refine it. Go for it baby! Help us all out of this horrible mess. Nuclear, coal and hydro are the ways of the world and very efficient. But you have to convince the environmentalist treehuggers to back the hell off and deal with some truth instead of looking for causes that aren't legitimate. Their issues with the coal power plants was WAY overstated and you can blame them for the closing many of those plants.
