B99 biodiesel blend heading back to the pumps in US northwest

US-based Sequential Pacific Biodiesel (SPB) is to return supplying a B99 biodiesel blend to over 30 local retail outlets throughout Oregon and Washington.

The return to the higher blend ratio marks the conclusion of SPB’s winter blending period, where it produces a B50 blend as the fuel demands for effectiveness.

 ‘Our winter blending policy eliminates concerns about engine problems caused by gelling and provides a worry-free experience for our customers,’ says SPB sales director Gavin Carpenter.

SPB makes its renewable fuel from recycled cooking oil taken from over 7,000 restaurants and businesses in the northwest of the US.
