Hale Hill
Biofuel's B20 Bioheat customers have collectively
reduced the
carbon foot print of Connecticut residents by 128
tons so far
this season!
In addition,
our trucks reduced their carbon dioxide (CO2)
emissions by
another 16 tons (in comparison to using imported
Petro-Diesel).
Thank You for your
leadership, commitment and stewardship toward our environment.
What
is Bioheat?
Bioheat (B20) is a blend of 80% low sulfur No. 2
home heating oil and 20% biodiesel. This blend percentage ensures the
safe and consistent operation of current equipment while maximizing the
environmental benefits of biodiesel.
What is Biodiesel?
Biodiesel is a cleaner burning, domestic and
renewable fuel that can be refined from vegetable oil, animal fats or
waste grease. The biodiesel we use in our B20 blend is made from soy
beans grown on American farms and is supplied to us by Greenleaf
Biofuels.
Biodiesel in pure form?
-
Is renewable
-
Is less toxic than table salt
-
Biodegrades as fast as sugar and is
suitable for sensitive environments
-
Blends easily with petroleum
products
-
Reduces exhaust emissions including
toxins by up to 78% (16% in a B20 blend)
-
Substantially reduces unburned
hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter, thus reducing
the localized formation of smog
-
Dramatically reduces polycyclic
aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) and nitrated polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons (nPAH), which have been identified as potential cancer
causing compounds
-
Essentially eliminates emissions of
sulfur oxides and sulfates (20% reduction in a B20 blend), thus
reduces major components of acid rain.
-
Reduces global warming gas emissions
-
Is made in the United States from
agricultural resources
Why
should I use Biofuels?
Using biodiesel supports our domestic economy,
reduces our dependence on foreign oil and enhances our national
security. Furthermore, using biodiesel will significantly decrease
emissions of greenhouse gases and particulate matter that contribute to
lung disease.
