Summer Vacations Powered By Biodiesel
Welcome to summer! We've heard from several of you that your vacations this year are being "Powered by Biodiesel" and we couldn't be happier for you! From short camping trips to cross country adventures, your Biodiesel powered rigs are saving you money by the mile!
With Biodiesel still being able to be made for about a buck a gallon, we think it's an awesome way to power your fun this summer! Whether you're traveling to exotic locations, or just around the block, saving money with Biodiesel just plain rocks!
So, with all that money saving going on, we've thrown together another issue of Biodiesel review to keep the savings going strong!

| 6th Annual Collective Biofuels Conference | 
If you have time in your schedule at all, we would love to see you at this years Collective Biofuels Conference! Not only will we be there, but the speaker list continues to get more & more impressive! It's like a mini National Biodiesel Board conference only a heck of a lot cheaper and with a much cozier atmosphere! Even Dr. Jon Van Gerpen is speaking!!!
Check out some of the impressive speakers on tap!
Dr. Jon Van Gerpen a.k.a. The Biodiesel God in my book. You know that thing called the ASTM Standard for Biodiesel? Much of the research that it's based on was done by this guy. Yeah. He's THAT guy! If you've ever wanted to know ANYTYHING about Biodiesel, this is THE MAN!
Dr. Gerhard Knothe a.k.a. The Biodiesel Chemist God. This guy is so smart he's probably forgotten more than I'll ever know about the chemistry involved in making Biodiesel. He's also the editor of The Biodiesel Handbook, which is considered by many as the bible of Biodiesel.
Jeff Fetkenhour - Jeff owns and operates a premier ASTM Lab in Hood River, Oregon. His knowledge of Biodiesel is amazing! He's become rather famous among commercial Biodiesel producers as the go-to guy when they have an ASTM related question or when they're trouble-shooting their ASTM test results. He has helped numerous commercial Biodiesel plants get their Biodiesel quality programs going in the right direction. He's my go to guy for really technical questions on the ASTM Standard because of how well he knows it and can explain it. His pricing on testing services rocks too!
Rod Yawn - Rod is a Biodiesel dry wash ion exchange guru! The guy REALLY knows dry wash and how to implement it correctly! If you've been kicking around the idea of dry washing, this is the guy you want to hear & work with! The folks I refer to him always call back to say what an incredibly guy he is to work with.
Dr. Jonathan Meuser - Jonathan is the Algae Biodiesel Master! His research into making Biodiesel from Algae is incredible! He's been researching it for years and knows the industry incredibly well! His no-nonsense approach to everything algae is awesome as he doesn't sugar coat it & goes right to the meat of the issues. If you want to get a REAL answer about Algae & Biodiesel, this is the man to talk to!
Jason Burroughs - Jason is the king of Biodiesel when it comes to rules & regulations. The guy has mastered what it takes to get certified, get registered, get signed up & sell RIN's, and how to do it all in the best way possible. He owns DieselGreen Fuels and will be sharing some of his vast knowledge of how to get up & running in the commercial Biodiesel market!
We'll also be speaking as well as several other awesome speakers. You can check out the full speaker list here. If you have room in your schedule at all, we would LOVE to see you there! With the amazing speakers set to speak, it's going to be one of the best conferences they've ever put on!

| Stainless Steel Micron Ratings | 
We get asked all the time what the difference between two different micron ratings are. We figured it's such a common question that we decided to write an article dedicated to what the different micron ratings look like.
We collected several stainless mesh samples of different micron ratings, laid them next to each other and under a bright light.
It was really cool to see just what the different micron ratings really looked like & how they stacked up at letting light pass through! We also added a handy chart to help you go between Micron & Mesh ratings too!
