Oops! DOE goofs difference between biodiesel and renewable diesel
In Washington, the DOE’s Energy Blog identified the Diamond Green renewable diesel project as “a biodiesel refinery that will triple America’s domestic biodiesel production.”
US biodiesel capacity, which is at 2.2 billion gallons, will not in fact triple with the completion of the 137 million gallon Diamond Green project, which doesn’t make biodiesel (a/k/a mono-alkyl esters), in any case. Smooth.
