Biodiesel: What is it?
A clean burning, oxygenated diesel fuel madefrom vegetable oils or animal fats that is capable ofreplacing part or all of your diesel needs!
Biodiesel: How is it made?
By reacting alcohol with natural fats, oils orgreases through a conventional chemical processknown as transesterification!

Biodiesel: How is it used?
As pure (100%) = B100
As a blend with petroleum diesel (20%) = B20
In low levels (1% - 5%) = B1 B5
Any blend concentration requested = B1 B99

Legislative Drivers
Excise tax credit (Code Section 6426) Passed within (JOBS) Act, Jumpstart Our Business
Strength
One penny per percentage of biodiesel per gallon for
agri-biodiesel made from virgin vegetable oils andanimal fats, and penny per percentage of biodieselmade from other feedstocks.
The benefits are available to fuel blenders/distributors.

Biodiesel: Costing
*Based on December, 2002 DOE Estimates.
Biodiesel blends cost per gallon at a 20% blend:
20% biodiesel @ $1.95/gal ($2.95 - $1.00 / galBlenders credit)
+ 80% #2 diesel @ $2.30/gal
= Decrease cost 20% blend = $0.07/gal
B20 can now be sold at parity or a discount to #2diesel.

Biodiesel: Currently40 MM gallon market ProjectedTo Grow to 1.0 MMM gallons (Diesel Market 55 MMM gals)
How will it grow:
$1.00 / gallon federal excise tax credit on soy based Biodiesel
$0.50 / gallon federal excise tax credit on RVO Biodiesel
CCC Program through 2006
RFS, Renewable fuel standard in proposed Energy Bill
Energy Bill was signed August 8th 2006, RFS & blenders creditthrough 2008.

Storage Tank Challenges
Distribution chain storage tanks create a challenging maintenanceprocess
Improper placement of water draw off
Lack of attention to water evaluation, electronically or physically
sticking tank with water paste Sticking before and after each fuel delivery

Maintaining Your Fuel Quality
Begin by specifying ASTM designed fuels, 6751 and 975
Reference cold weather performance and other special needs prior
to ordering Be proactive with general housekeeping practices
Maintain optimum storage conditions
Execute a quarterly fuel analysis program to ensure a good preventdefense

Cold Weather Performance
Wax, water and fuel contaminants in a vehicle fuel system is apotential source for operational snafus
A fuels CFPP, cloud point and pour point requires your attention as
well your storage tank Focus on the absolute bottom-line operability level Blends of Biodiesel (>20%) will impact cold weather operability in
direct relationship to the independent base analysis of your dieselfuel

Cold Flow Improvers
Used seasonally to providecold weather protection
Alters wax crystal growth
Dosage level varies on wax
content and temperature Tests used to monitor cold flow
are pour, cloud, cold filterplugging point and lowtemperature filterability test
Must be added to fuel beforefuel reaches cloud pointtemperature to be effective
Dont over additized, more is
not better..

Splash Blending
Biodiesel is slightly heavier than petroleumdiesel with a gravity value of 0.88 versus 0.85,ideally, the biodiesel should be introduced
second to the generic diesel fuel and should beagitated or recirculated in the storage tank
Storage and use of pure biodiesel should be attemperatures above 55F
Blends will not separate in the presence of waterhowever execute proactive tank management
Terminal options have been developed

Biodiesel: Additional Questions
2005 Existing Capacity: 150 MM gallonsNew 2006 Capacity: 100 MM gallonsOhio: PCNA 30 MM gallons, others planning to build 2006Where B100 distribution: Western Reserve Farm Co-op Jefferson, OH Town & Country Co-op Ashland, OH Blanchard Valley Findlay, OH McWherter Petroleum Delaware, OH 15 other distributors in Ohio
Pricing Prediction: ~$1.00 / gallon over #2 - $1.00 blenders credit =parity to dieselLong term Biodiesel will be an extension of the diesel fuel supply = 2% 55
