BES Low Cloud Point Biodiesel Made from Palm Oil

La Fabril S.A. and Biodiesel Energy Systems Announce Cold Flo Biodiesel, a Sub-Zero Celsius Biodiesel Made from Palm Oil. La Fabril and Its Marketing Partner Make This Their Premier Product for the United States and the European Union

WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--La Fabril, one of the largest producers of biodiesel from Palm Oil in the world and currently the largest exporter of biodiesel into the United States, announced today that it is commercially producing a biodiesel product made from Palm Oil that has a sub-zero Celsius cloud point. Palm Oil has been widely recognized as being the premier feedstock for making biodiesel. The only negative that has been attributed to biodiesel made from Palm Oil has been its relatively high cloud point. The new “Cold Flo Biodiesel” erases the negative. The product is not an additive but a biodiesel fuel that meets ASTM 6751 in the U.S. and EN 14214 in the European Union. The cloud point (the point at which liquid starts to gel) of the palm biodiesel produced by La Fabril and others to date has typically been above 13º Celsius. The “Cold Flo Biodiesel” has consistently been tested to -3° Celsius, and is being sold with a guarantee of 0° Celsius.

The biodiesel will be marketed by Biodiesel Energy Systems, Inc., La Fabril’s marketing partner for the United States and Europe. It will be sold to a variety of customers that will put it into transportation, marine, heating oil and power generation applications.
