White Jennings Jersey -

The new ASTM D6751 cold Soak Filtration test is leaving many Biodiesel producers White Jennings Jersey and consumers out in the cold. In Response new products are presenting new technology designed specifically to ensure that biodiesel products conform to the ASTM standard for cold flow properties.

What is this new test all about? The American Society for Testing of Materials has recently added the cold soak filtration analysis and defined it as: the time in White Jennings Jersey seconds that it takes for cold soaked biodiesel to pass through two 0.8 micron filters and the amount of particulate matter expressed in milligrams per (mg/l) collected on the filter. Why is this new test important? The problem is when biodiesel is stored in temperatures below 40 White Jennings Jersey degrees F. for extended time periods, certain particles within the fuel solution will fall out of the fuel to the bottom of the storage tanks. This particle fall out will build into an ever thickening layer of build up at the bottom. Generally the colder the temperature and the longer the fuel stays at that temperature, will induce even more material to fall out.
