Biodiesel Testing

To become certified by the National Biodiesel Accreditation Commission (NBAC) as a BQ-9000 producer or seller, biodiesel fuel producers, distributors and retailers may be interested in putting into practice a fuel testing program.

Key to BQ-9000 certification is compliance with the ASTM D6751 specification for B100. The ASTM D6751 sets limits on a number of properties of biodiesel fuel:

• the combined mass concentration of calcium and magnesium
• the closed cup flashpoint
• the combined volume concentration of water and sediment
• and many more properties.

In order to meet the biodiesel regulations set in many states as well as of the BQ-9000 certification process, biodiesel testing in accordance with ASTM D6751-07b is a vital component offered by Midwest Labs.

When meeting these specifications through a testing process, you can guarantee a quality biodiesel fuel for your customers.

At Midwest Laboratories, we’re happy to work with you to whether you need an individual biodiesel testing kit or are interested in a package to continuously test biodiesel.
