Biodiesel ¿Mejor choice? - Biodiesel ¿Best Option? - Biodiesel ¿Best Option?

English version:


Today day, it seems that the ultimate energy source, oil's days are numbered in the medium to long term. In addition, their preparation is becoming more difficult and therefore more face. This led to the search for new cleaner energy sources to substitute, such as biofuels. Among the highlights biofuel biodiesel, which reduces emissions of gases and particles harmful to health and the environment (greenhouse gases like CO 2, SO 2 also particles such as heavy metals) and Moreover, in its pure state is biodegradable.

Biodiesel can be produced from used oil, leading to yet another byproduct, glycerin, which is used for various purposes such as production of cosmetics.

However today, large biodiesel plants do not use used oil, if corn or soybean seeds or, alternatively, unused oil (which is obviously more expensive than used).


situation in Spain

According to a report the Association of Renewable Energy Producers (APPA) that provides information on biofuel production plants English dated March 31, 2010, in our country there are 46 biodiesel plants and 4 bioethanol. In the first, 4 are in Galicia: 2 in Ferrol, 1 Cerceda (A Coruña) and 1 in Begonte (Lugo). Of bioethanol, there are only 1 and is in Curtis (A Coruña).

This report states that 75% of English biodiesel plant stand, while an avalanche of Argentine imports flooding the market (61% of imports from this country).

This is due to Argentina's policy of differential taxation (TEDs) that provides an artificial incentive to export biodiesel, imposing lower taxes to finished product to raw material, soybean oil. In addition, Argentina, along with other leading biodiesel producers like Malaysia and Indonesia, have the "Generalized System of Preferences of the EU" which offers duty-free access to EU market. ( Report Infinita Renovables).


Biodiesel from the ecological point of view ... and economic development.

Peru and Argentina especially are two of the countries largest importers of biofuels today. The substrate used is mainly oil from soybean and corn among others, from large areas of plantations of this type of plant exclusively dedicated to this purpose. This causes serious ecological and economic problems: firstly destroyed native forests and natural ecosystems and on the other, each time further increases the price of staple foods, may increase the possibility of reaching a global famine according to some experts. Therefore, the problems that can lead to mismanagement in biofuel production can be much more negative than those who try to solve (climate change). So, ecological and Greenpeace called on politicians to strict environmental controls are established for the production of biofuels as well as a minimum quality standard that enables a 60% reduction in greenhouse gases compared to fossil fuels they replace.

So, here lies the importance of the fate of used oil for biofuel production: it is true that the quality would be somewhat lower, but if we can sensitize the public to make enables the collection and management of used oil, we can obtain a cost biodiesel production Mucho smaller and at the same time would avoid the destruction of the disappearance of natural spaces destinarlos exploring corn and soybeans.


version Galego:


Nowadays, it seems that the energy source for excellence, the oil's days are numbered in the medium or long term. Moreover, obtaining it is increasingly difficult and therefore more face. This led to the search for new sources of cleaner energy that sustitúan, such as biofuels. Within biofuels highlights the biodiesel, which reduces emissions of gases and particles harmful to health and the environment (greenhouse gases such as CO 2 , SO 2 also particles such as heavy metals) and, furthermore, in its pure state is biodegradable.

Biodiesel can be produced from used oil, giving rise also to another byproduct, glycerin, which is used for various purposes such as the production of cosmetics.
However at present, the large production of biodiesel does not use used oil, otherwise seeds of corn or soybeans, or, failing this, oil without using (which obviously is more expensive than the used).


Situation in Spain

According to a report the Association of Producers of Renewable Energy (APPA) that provides information on the plants to produce biofuel English dated March 31, 2010, in our country there are 46 biodiesel plants and four of bioethanol. From the first, four are in Galicia: two in Ferrol, in a Cerceda (Sao Paulo) and in a Begonte (Lugo). Of ethanol production, there is only one and is in Curtis (Sao Paulo).
This report announces that 75% of English biodiesel plants are stopped, since an avalanche of Argentine imports flooding the market (61% of imports come from this country).
This is due Argentine politics of differential taxation (TEDs) that provides an artificial incentive for the export of biodiesel, less imposing taxes for the finished product the raw material, the soybean oil. In addition, Argentina, along with other major biodiesel producers like Malaysia and Indonesia, have the "Generalized System of Preferences EU", which offers duty free access to the EU market. ( Report Infinite Renewable ).



Biodiesel from point ... ecologically and economically.

Peru and Argentina especially two countries are importers of biofuel currently most important. The substrate is using oil obtenido mainly of soya and corn among others, who are from large tracts of plantations of this type of plant dedicated exclusively to this purpose. This causes serious ecological and economic problems: firstly destroy native forests and natural ecosystems and, secondly, each time further increasing the price of staple foods, may increase the possibility of reaching a situation of world hunger some experts said. Therefore, the problems that can lead to poor management in biofuel production can be much more negative than those who try to solve (the effects of climate change). Therefore, environmental groups like Greenpeace are calling on politicians to establish strident environmental controls for the production of biofuels as well as a minimum standard of quality that enables a 60% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions in fossil fuels it replaces.

So here lies the question of the fate of the oil used for biofuel production: it is true that the quality would be somewhat lower, but if we can educate the population to make possible the collection and management of used oil can produce biodiesel with a much lower production cost and at the same time, we are avoiding the destruction or disappearance of natural spaces destinal exports of corn and soybeans.



English version:


Nowadays, it seems that the ultimate energy source, oil, has counted days and to get expired sooner or later. In addition, it’s obtaining process is becoming more difficult and therefore more expensive. This led to the search for new cleaner energy sources to substitute, such as biofuels. Among the biofuel there highlights biodiesel, which reduces gases emissions and harmful particles for health and environment (greenhouse gases like CO2, SO2, also particles such as heavy metals) and also in its pure state  is biodegradable. 

Biodiesel can be produced from used oil, giving the place to another biological product, glycerin, which is used for various purposes such as production of cosmetics.
Actually, large biodiesel plants do not use used oil, if corn or soybean seeds or, alternatively, unused oil (which is obviously more expensive than used).
