B20 Biodiesel Blend No. 2 Diesel Fuel (15 ppm S)
A blended No. 2 fuel oil with 20% biodiesel and 80% ultra-low sulfur petroleum distillate, meeting HTS 2710.20.10.05 criteria for light fuel oils (API ≥25°, viscosity <45 sec, ≤15 ppm S). Designed for on-road diesel engines, it complies with EPA low-sulfur mandates while incorporating renewable biodiesel. The petroleum oils exceed 70% by weight as the basic constituent.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If pure petroleum without biodiesel
Absence of biodiesel moves it to non-biodiesel distillate fuel oils with similar specs.
If sulfur exceeds 15 ppm but ≤500 ppm
Slightly higher sulfur content places it in the next sulfur tier for low-sulfur fuels.
If marketed as prepared biodiesel additive
If emphasized as a chemical preparation rather than fuel, it may classify under fatty acid esters.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide B&D (soybean or other feedstock) origin certificates for biodiesel portion to qualify for potential renewable credits; test for oxidative stability per EN 15751
• Avoid pitfall: incomplete blend ratio disclosure leading to reclassification
