 International Biodiesel Day is celebrated on 10th August every year, with an objective to turn the concentration to non-fossil fuels. This day also respects the research experiments by Sir Rudolf Diesel in 1893 who ran an engine with peanut oil. 

History of International Biodiesel Day 2022

Biodiesel is a wonderful source that has the great capability of being made from old, vegetable, and animal oils. It is obtained after getting the oil with alcohol to produce fuel. That fuel is capable of burning and gives power to many things like passenger buses and heat furnaces. In 1853, a process called transesterification was first done by a man named Patrick Duffy. This experiment took place before the first diesel engine was produced.

International Biodiesel Day Quotes

Here are some of the quotes for International Biodiesel Day.

  • The use of plant oil as fuel may seem insignificant today. But such products can in time become just as important as kerosene and these coal-tar-products of today.-Rudolf Diesel.

  • Ethanol and biodiesel allow people to burn a cleaner form of energy. - Mark Kennedy

  • The growing use of biofuel will be an inestimable contribution to the generation of income, social inclusion and reduction of poverty in many poor countries of the world.- Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.

  • We've got to control our own energy. Now, not only oil and natural gas, which we've been investing in; but also, we've got to make sure we're building the energy source of the future, not just thinking about next year, but ten years from now, 20 years from now. That's why we've invested in solar and wind and biofuels, energy-efficient cars. - Barack Obama

  • Better biofuels are a really big deal. That means we can precisely engineer the molecules in the fuel chain and optimize them along the way. So, if all goes well, they're going to have designer bugs in warm vats that are eating and digesting sugars to excrete better biofuels. I guess that's better living through bugs. - John DoerrFavorite
