Says Poor Quality Fuel Could Bring FinesWashington,DC,USA -Transport Topics News, by Sean M. McNally -12 Nov 2007: -- The Environmental Protection Agency issued a warning to biodiesel producers they could face fines of up to $32,500 a day if their product does not meet quality standards... In a guidance document sent to producers and blenders last late month, EPA said it plans to increase enforcement to ensure that biodiesel producers are complying with quality and technical standards set by ASTM International... For example, the ASTM standards set the flash point for biodiesel at 199.4 degrees Fahrenheit, and limits glycerin content to 0.24% of the total volume... Jenna Higgins, a spokeswoman for the National Biodiesel Board, said the industry group worked with EPA on the guidance document, which was part of a larger industry outreach program to raise awareness about biodiesel quality...
