Bioheat fuel is a combination of ultra-low sulfur heating oil and biodiesels that create a cleaner burning fuel, which helps the environment. Additionally, Bioheat fuel is better for your heating system as well as your bank account!
We’ve put together some common questions people have about Bioheat fuel so you can learn more about it.
The biodiesels in Bioheat fuel are natural and renewable, such as:
Biodiesel alternatives are being developed. According to new research from Michigan State University, switchgrass, a biofuel crop, may help protect the environment when grown on low-value agricultural land.
This helps our nation’s farmers, as it offers a new source of biodiesel used in Bioheat fuel and may help them earn more money by growing crops on portions of their land that were previously unproductive.
Bioheat fuel not only benefits the environment but also in multiple ways. The most prominent way is by significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions. As the quantity of biofuels increases, the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions becomes greater. Bioheat fuel is a significant component of the effort to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by the year 2050 in the heating oil sector.
The more biodiesels are utilized in Bioheat fuel, the less we rely on oil drilling both here and abroad.
By taking these products and converting them into biodiesels for Bioheat fuel, we are keeping waste out of landfills.
The only distinction among Bioheat fuels is the level of biodiesels in them. Here’s how to have an idea of how much of your Bioheat fuel is biodiesel.
A Bioheat fuel supplier will often provide a letter B followed by a number indicating the percentage of biodiesels in their product. The amount of biodiesel in the fuel is represented by this figure. There are also different names for each level of biodiesel content.
Bioheat® fuel: Blends ranging from 2% to 5% biodiesel (B2–B5)
Bioheat Plus® fuel: Blends ranging from 5% to 20% biodiesel (B5–B20)
Bioheat Super Plus® fuel: Blends with 20% biodiesel and above (B20+)
