The successful completion of its sixth test period of 'no harm' tests for oxidation stabilisers and additional products has been announced by the Association Quality Management Biodiesel (AGQM).
The tests make sure that the chemical and physical properties in biodiesel are not affected by the use of oxidation stabilisers, there are no inadmissible reciprocal effects occurring with diesel fuel stabilisers and the additive has security datasheets.
These results mean biodiesel manufacturers can chose a total of 36 products from a total of 22 manufacturers as the following oxygen stabilisers passed the tests: Ensolant TB 1, Biostable 501, Baynox Solution 50%, INSA B30 NH and Agidol-12B.
The AGQM have said the next round of 'no harm' testing will begin in November.
