domestically from vegetable oils, animal fats, or recycled restaurant grease. Biodiesel meets both the biomass-based diesel and overall advanced biofuel requirement of the <a href="/laws/RFS">Renewable Fuel Standard</a>. <a href="https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/renewable_diesel.html">Renewable diesel</a> is distinct from biodiesel.</p> <p>Biodiesel is a liquid fuel often referred to as B100, pure, or neat biodiesel in its unblended form. Like petroleum diesel, biodiesel is used to fuel compression-ignition engines. See the table below for biodiesel's physical characteristics.</p> <p>Biodiesel performance in cold weather depends on the blend of biodiesel, the feedstock, and the petroleum diesel characteristics. In general, blends with smaller percentages of biodiesel perform better in cold temperatures. Typically, No. 2 diesel and B5 (up to 5% biodiesel) perform about the same in cold weather. Both biodiesel and No. 2 diesel have some compounds that crystallize in very cold temperatures. In winter weather, fuel blenders and suppliers combat crystallization by adding a cold <a href="/glossary.html#FlowImprovers" class="glossary">flow improver</a>. For the best cold weather performance, users should work with their fuel provider to ensure the blend is appropriate.</p> <div style="text-align:center;"> <table class="table table-bordered"
