The Biodiesel pHLip Test

Biodiesel, the fastest growing renewable fuel in the U.S, must be made to meet the quality specifications of ASTM D-6751. The pHLip test was developed by Randall von Wedel, Ph.D., to give the buyer a tool to visually, quickly, and inexpensively determine quality. The Biodiesel pHLip Test is the easiest, lowest-cost, most accurate and fastest biodiesel field test available today.

 



The Biodiesel pHLip Test can accurately detect traces of biodiesel characteristics:

  • Catalysts
  • Glycerins
  • Soaps
  • Acids
  • Aged (oxidized) fuel

The Biodiesel pHLip Test was developed for low-cost field sampling, screening, and testing of pure biodiesel(B100/B99).

"Best of the Tests: Tests for Finished Biodiesel:This is the most thoroughly and analytically vetted test we have short of ASTM testing to tell if we have high quality biodiesel. It has been compared against ASTM testing repeatedly by dozens of firms. My Opinion - I think it's a really good test." -Rick Boggan, B100 Supply
