Fuels Compatibility Statement
All steel tanks are compatible with all blends of fuels meeting ASTM standards. Ethanol blends from E10 to E100 and blends of biodiesel from B2 to B100 can be stored in steel tanks. Recent work has been performed to assess the viability of fuel blends using Isobutanol.
