other seed oils and tallow— animal fats "It’s not com and it's not diesel Because of the food for fuel controversy the biodiesel we offer is not made from com Algae is also being studied as another possible biodiesel source” said Dan Sims Cardwell's Technical Services engineer and Marketing manager Sims answered questions for farmers and others regarding the benefits and perceived problems associated with biodiesel usage diesel tends to “cloud” or gel at lower temperatures Biodiesel suffers from the same problem It is an excellent warm weather fuel It should not be used when temperatures dip below 50°F biodiesel with Blending up to 20 regular diesel averts the gelling problem "Biodiesel takes on the characteristics of diesel when blended It won't “Cloud" experts any
