I was talking to someone about biodiesel vs diesel and he is confused (so am I) about the costs of producing bio.
I am hoping that people much smarter then I can help sort this out.
crude oil prices are at $32/bbl
current soybean oil prices are at $0.20 per pound (roughly being $70/bbl)
Just based on those numbers alone how can soy make biodiesel at the same cost as diesel?
I am sure I am missing lots of info on how its actually produced but I cant seem to find comparisons anywhere and really want to find out.
