B11 Biodiesel
What if you could help reduce our country's dependence on foreign oil by doing what you do every day?
You can, whether you're buying, selling or distributing fuel, just by choosing American-made biodiesel. And now biodiesel blends like B11 are even easier to find. So the next time you're refueling, look for a pump with a biodiesel label!
Why B11 Biodiesel?
Most major engine companies say using blends up to B20 (20 percent biodiesel mixed with 80 percent petroleum diesel) won't void their parts and workmanship warranties. B11 (11 percent biodiesel) is the most commonly used blend in Illinois, because the state legislature created favorable tax implications for those who sell and use biodiesel blends above 10 percent in Illinois. B11's comparable cost to #2 diesel fuel and increased benefits for consumers have also made it widely accepted among fuel retailers.

American-Made Biodiesel
Quality American soybeans make quality American biodiesel, and that means purchasing less foreign oil. Every gallon of biodiesel you put in your vehicle puts us one step closer to energy independence.
Renewable Security
Biodiesel is made from renewable feedstocks that are grown every year in the United States. Unlike petroleum diesel made from earth's steadily depleting fossil fuel resources, we can continue to raise more feedstocks for biodiesel.
Green Energy
Not only is biodiesel renewable, which helps protect our environment, it's cleaner-burning and an excellent source of alternative fuel. Research shows running biodiesel in your engine produces 50 percent less pollution than petroleum diesel.
