Import Tips
• Verify compliance with ASTM D6751 standards and provide certificate of analysis confirming B100 purity and no petroleum content
• Include feedstock origin documentation (e.g
• soybean oil) for RIN generation and biofuel incentive programs
• Avoid misclassification as mixtures by confirming <70% petroleum via lab testing; common pitfall is residual solvents
