Green Star Products has announced that the Inland Empire Oilseeds Biodiesel Facility in Odessa, Washington is completed. Its initial continuous acceptance run produced 36,000 gallons of spec biodiesel to complete GSPI's contractual obligations.

The biodiesel fuel was tested by an independent certified lab. The certificate of analysis No. 111208030 reported that all ASTM 6751 specifications were met.

All new US biodiesel production plants must submit an independent analysis of produced biodiesel fuel to the US EPA in order to receive a certificate to sell biodiesel fuel. The Odessa biodiesel facility received its certificate from the US EPA last Friday, November 21, 2008.

The Odessa Plant's initial rated capacity is 8 million gallons per year with essential equipment, already installed, to expand capacity to 16 million gallons per year.
