Biodiesel, crafted from a mix of palm oil, palm fatty acid distillate, and used cooking oil, represents a sustainable alternative to traditional diesel. By utilizing both plant and animal-derived oils, biodiesel significantly reduces carbon emissions compared to conventional diesel usage. In South Korea, regulations mandate a 4% biodiesel blend in diesel, which is set to increase to 8% by 2030, underscoring a national commitment to greener fuel options.
