Marine Biodiesel
LOWER IMPACT ON MARINE ENVIRONMENT
Water pollution should also be reduced by using Biodiesel in boat engines since there will be more efficient burning of the fuel mixture, less carbon (soot) accumulation and particulate (smoke) emissions. Faster starting and smoother operation also should reduce the discharge of unburned fuel. Any accidental discharges of small amounts of Biodiesel should have relatively little impact on the environment compared to petroleum diesel, which contains more toxic and more water-soluble aromatics. Nonetheless, the methyl esters could still cause harm.
