HCOBIG10500 - Biofuels and Fuel Substitute Assurance: Testing

Introduction

We expect that anyone producing biofuels or fuel substitutes commercially will have their fuel analysed and tested on a regular basis as a part of normal quality control.These tests should show a breakdown of the composition of the fuel and give the sulphur/ester content.

It is possible for some SVO to qualify for the biodiesel rate, and there is SVO (such as rapeseed) with a predisposition for fuel production. A German standard (E DIN 51 605) has been used by some producers to confirm that their fuel has met the “diesel quality*” part of the fiscal specification. It should be noted that this standard is exclusively for biodiesel made using rapeseed.
