Producer Packages - Testing B100 by ASTM D6751
The standard specification for biodiesel fuel blend stock (B100) is ASTM D6751. This specification is comprised of 15 tests. These tests define the required properties of biodiesel fuel at the time and place of delivery.
ANA Labs offers two testing packages to enable biodiesel producers to show that their product meets these industry standards.
Premium Producer Package -- Our premium package is designed to ensure strict compliance with ASTM D6751. Strict compliance is achieved by performing all 15 tests exactly as specified. This package also enables producers to evaluate their product for sale or use.

Basic Producer Package -- If strict compliance is unnecessary or cost-prohibitive, we also offer a basic package designed to meet the key specifications of ASTM D6751 at a greatly reduced cost. This cost reduction is achieved by replacing three tests with cheaper alternatives and by not performing the three least mission-critical ones. This basic package also enables biodiesel producers to evaluate their products for sale or use.
