摘要

RME or Rapeseed-oil-methyl-ester was the first type of Biodiesel fuel produced commercia in 1988, characterised as a single-feed-stock product of then questionable quality. Tremendo progress has be,en made in the past 12 years by 1) broadening the feedstock basis beyo rapeseed oil, 2) improving process technology through high flexibility in processing multi-feed stocks (MFS) at highest yield levels, 3) developing sophisticated fuel standards thus assuri highest fuel quality, 4) establishing Biodiesel production capacities in many countries all over world, 5) intelligent product positioning in defined fuel market segments, 6) obtaining numero warranties from Diesel engine producers and 7) implementing a number of different supportive le measures and voluntary regulations.
