Learn More: Biodiesel
Biodiesel is a renewable and biodegradable fuel that offers numerous environmental benefits. The first diesel engine was developed in 1895 by German engineer Rudolf Diesel and used peanut oil, a fuel entirely of plant origin. Therefore, biodiesel is a substance used since the 19th century but was gradually replaced by petroleum diesel over time. Biodiesel can be obtained through processes such as cracking, esterification, or transesterification. The main raw materials are sunflower, babassu, peanut, soy, castor, palm, in addition to animal fats. In biodiesel production, transesterification is widely used; it is a chemical reaction between the raw material and ethanol or methanol, catalyzed by a specific agent.
Once the oil (biodiesel) is obtained, it can be used pure or blended with petroleum diesel in different proportions. For example, fuel containing 10% biodiesel is called B10, and so on, up to pure biodiesel, B100. Higher proportions of biodiesel in fuels emit fewer greenhouse gases during combustion. However, vehicle engines must be adapted to receive blends with over 20% biodiesel.
In March 2024, the biodiesel blend percentage in diesel was increased from 12% to 14% (B14). Starting in March 2025, this blend will be raised to 15% (B15), with annual increments of one percentage point until reaching 20% (B20) by 2030.
