Scope*1.1 This specification covers four grades of biodiesel(B100) for use as a blend component with middle distillatefuels. These
3、 grades are described as follows:1.1.1 Grade No. 1-B S15A special purpose biodieselblendstock intended for use in middle distillate fuel applica-tions which can be sensitive to the presence of partially reactedglycerides, including those applications requiring good lowtemperature operability, and al
4、so requiring a fuel blend com-ponent with 15 ppm sulfur (maximum).1.1.2 Grade No. 1-B S500A special purpose biodieselblendstock intended for use in middle distillate fuel applica-tions which can be sensitive to the presence of partially reactedglycerides, including those applications requiring good
5、lowtemperature operability, and also requiring a fuel blend com-ponent with 500 ppm sulfur (maximum).1.1.3 Grade No. 2-B S15A general purpose biodieselblendstock intended for use in middle distillate fuel applica-tions that require a fuel blend component with 15 ppm sulfur(maximum).1.1.4 Grade No. 2
6、-B S500A general purpose biodieselblendstock intended for use in middle distillate fuel applica-tions that require a fuel blend component with 500 ppm sulfur(maximum).1.2 This specification prescribes the required properties ofdiesel fuels at the time and place of delivery. The specificationrequirem
7、ents may be applied at other points in the productionand distribution system when provided by agreement betweenthe purchaser and the supplier.1.3 Nothing in this specification shall preclude observanceof federal, state, or local regulations which may be morerestrictive.NOTE 1The generation and dissi
8、pation of static electricity can createproblems in the handling of distillate fuel oils with which biodiesel maybe blended.

33、the U.S. EPA as a fuel and a fuel additive underSection 211(b) of the CleanAirAct (40 CFR Part 79). There is,however, other usage of the term biodiesel in the marketplace.Due to its EPA registration and the widespread commercial useof the term biodiesel in the U.S. marketplace, the termbiodiesel wil
34、l be maintained for this specification.3.1.1.2 DiscussionBiodiesel is typically produced by areaction of a vegetable oil or animal fat with an alcohol such asmethanol or ethanol in the presence of a catalyst to yieldmono-alkyl esters and glycerin, which is removed. The finishedbiodiesel derives appr
35、oximately 10 % of its mass from thereacted alcohol. The alcohol used in the reaction may or maynot come from renewable resources.3.1.2 biodiesel blend (BXX), nblend of biodiesel fuel withdiesel fuel oils.3.1.2.1 DiscussionIn the abbreviation BXX, the XX rep-resents the volume percentage of biodiesel

Requirements4.1 The
39、 biodiesel specified shall be mono-alkyl esters oflong chain fatty acids derived from vegetable oils and animalfats.4.2 Unless otherwise specified, samples for analysis shall betaken by the procedure described in Practices D4057 or D4177.4.3 The biodiesel specified shall conform to the detailedrequi
40、rements shown in Table 1.NOTE 2A considerable amount of experience exists in the U.S. witha 20 % blend of biodiesel, primarily produced from soybean oil, with80 % diesel fuel (B20). Experience with biodiesel produced from animalfat and other oils is similar. Experience with B20 and lower blends in o
41、therapplications is not as prevalent. Although biodiesel (B100) can be used,blends of over 20 % biodiesel with diesel fuel (B20) should be evaluatedon a case by case basis until further experience is available.NOTE 3The user should consult the equipment manufacturer orowners manual regarding the sui
42、tability of using biodiesel or biodieselblends in a particular engine or application.5.
