Biodiesel Fuel and Hydrogen Fuel Compared

If you are one of those that is feeling devastated because of the rising costs of fuel, you must have been checking out the net for alternative types of fuels. The two most popular fuels that are prevalent today, apart from the fuels like gasoline, diesel, propane and some others that are commonly uses, are biodiesel and hydrogen fuels. Ask anyone who is thinking of converting their car for being adaptable to alternative fuels and you will find them answering about biodiesel fuel and hydrogen fuel.

In fact there are many fuel producing organizations that are slowly converting their plants in order to manufacture and cater to the fuel needs of the future. The end user need not be concerned too much. There are various conversion fuel kits available on the net and in shops that sell car hardware where they can find conversion fuel kits that will permit their car to run on either hydrogen fuel or biodiesel.

There are some people who go in for hydrogen based fuels because they have been conned by ads of special converters for this fuel. Most readers are led to believe that if they use this converter fuel cell, their car will run on water. This is not true and one should always read the fine print before purchasing such products. These converters require that you mix a fixed proportion of water along with the normal diesel. This means that you are still dependant on diesel. This is not the case with biodiesel.
