Biodiesel gets a real-world workout

摘要

COULD BIODIESEL be a logical alternative fuel for off-road machinery in highway construction and forest operations? That's the underlying question behind a $1.7-million study in British Columbia by Natural Resources Canada and FPInnovations, a not-for-profit forest-products research institute. Researchers want to gain better understanding of the economical and technical issues related to renewable diesel, as well as identify the best means and methods required to overcome likely challenges to biodiesel implementation in Canadian operations.
