naboo Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 I read in the other newspaper that the price of diesel will be subsidised by the fuel fund to keep it under 30B/litre. The article mentions B20 Biodiesel will be/is available. B20 is blended with 20% methyl ester or crude palm oil, though B7 is still available at petrol stations. B20 will be roughly 3B/litre cheaper than B7. This brings a few questions I don't know the answers to. The article doesn't make it clear whether B20 will be available at retail pumps, just that it will be the alternative fuel for transport and logistics systems. Will B20 be available for retail to the general public? Does B20 have any long term effects on the engine? My research suggests more frequent changes of fuel filter. Will the B7 be pegged at 30B/litre, or the B20? If so, will the B20 remain 3B/litre cheaper? If the B20 is pegged at 30B/litre, will the price of B7 float freely? I don't know if the answers are all available yet, but as and when we find out the answers it would be good if people could share them here.

E20 is petrol I use it because it's 98 octane, as for diesel it doesn't matter whether there's more ethanol some have a petrol additive so what's the matter if it has ethanol, it will have a higher octane rating.

"In Thailand, the government is calling on consumers to look towards using B20 as a way to combat higher fossil diesel prices that have increased significantly over the past few months, reflecting higher global oil prices. B20 is offered at a 9 cent discount to fossil diesel at the pump that is blended with just 7% bio-diesel. The blend is expected to rise later in the year to 10%. There have been some complaints, however, that B20 is only available to buses and trucks rather than to the public at large." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anon2736434 Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 You would think with the oversupply of palm production here someone would be using it more for fuel production. But unless fuel prices rise above a certain point its not really a viable solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, won't use the local ones. Price gouging mafia. Run all the small operators out of town. However, on the occasional long motorway trips, they are our go-to service station - clean bogs and a 7-11 selling cheese & ham toasties.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lacessit Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 It's another rort, just like ethanol. Biodiesel contributes to environmental degradation the same way ethanol derived from sugar cane does. Mono-culture, cost of fertiliser and pesticides, runoff, conversion costs - these fuels are simply not competitive with fossil fuels unless production is subsidised. The common expression is "Robbing Peter to pay Paul". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just filled up my CRF at PTT with E20 velly velly good who cares who owns em. Maybe PTT will be the first to sell B20 diesel.

owl sees all Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 (edited) Did a nut cut yesterday and today's price is 2.60 Baht a kilo. In August 2016 the price was 6.5 Baht. 15 years ago, one of Thaksin's stated aims for Thailand, was to have ALL diesel sold in Thailand, to have 15% oil palm by 2021. This government has not helped the Thai palm farmers by importing millions of tonnes of oil from Malaysia.
