Idaho researchers compare biodiesel stability additives

Researchers at the University of Idaho recently released the results of a study that aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of four different oxidative stability additives for biodiesel. The project, sponsored in part by the USDA National Biodiesel Education Program, addressed the impact of antioxidant additives on both new and degraded fuels under U.S. and European specifications. According to Joe Thompson, research support scientist and manager of the university's biodiesel lab, his team was especially interested in determining whether it is possible to effectively bring a degraded fuel back into specification using oxidative stability additives. "We were trying to figure out if this was a possibility, and ... we were able to actually get a passing score on all of the fuels with at least one [of the four] additives [evaluated]", he said.
