Sprague Biofuel
Improving our air quality, reducing our dependency on foreign oil and taking advantage of the available tax incentives have all played a key role in the rising interest of biofuels. And for good reason...
What is biofuel? Biofuel is a renewable, non-toxic, biodegradable fuel and its feedstocks are grown here in the United States. Biofuels have shown reductions in the majority of regulated emissions.
Renewable Resource The most common feedstock for biofuel is soybean, however other feedstocks including corn, canola, rapeseed, yellow grease and inedible tallow/greases can be used to create biofuels. Many of these feedstocks are grown in abundance throughout the United States.
Biofuel Applications Biofuels contain no petroleum, but they can be blended at any level with petroleum diesel to create a biodiesel blend for a variety of applications. Biodiesel can be used in its pure form as B100 and it has been commonly used in on-highway diesel engines as B20 (20% biodiesel and 80% petroleum diesel). Additionally, a B2 or B5 blend has been successfully blended into #2 heating oil for home heating. Sprague Commitment Sprague has been marketing, handling and supplying premium fuels and ultra low sulfur fuel during the past decade. To compliment our clean fuels program, we are adding biofuel to our product mix. Sprague markets biofuel to a variety of fleets including government, municipal, and school buses throughout the Northeast.
