Brief Project Summary:

This Quality Assurance program assists with supplemental efforts to address questions on fuel quality, storage and handling, fuel tank corrosion, immediate marketplace concerns, and items outside the scope of the other technical programs. This program works to minimize barriers to growth and higher volumes of soybean oil and biodiesel (biodiesel and renewable diesel) consumption. Growing industry volumes and addressing market barriers requires targeted research, communication, education, and outreach activities.
