Alcoholates
Biodiesel has become an important component of modern fuels. For good reasons: it is sourced from renewable materials (incl. waste) and ensures reduced GHG emissions. The utilization of biodiesel reduces the use of fossil fuels. Today's biodiesel blends satisfy engine manufacturers' call for high-quality, powerful and economic fuels. Such Biodiesel is made from vegetable oils, animal fats or used cooking oils (besides other waste materials). These conversion processes require catalysts. BASF's high-quality sodium and potassium methylate are ideal to convert these renewable materials into high performing biofuels.
