There are really three of issues (that I can recall) he
1) A diesel will run on any hydrocarbon fuel that it can pump and meter.
2) Different seals and hoses are compatible with different
chemicals--although it would be no surprise to find that all were compatible
with biodiesel.
3) Certified aircraft/engines require fuels authorized in the type
certificate and/or an STC.

4) Biodiesel supposedly thickens at temperatures that pilots fly in.

Though it can be corrected with additives, I would rather have heated
wings (thus tanks) to avoid additives and gain de-icing capability for
the same feature.

Has this been done before, or do de-icers only heat the leading edges
of the surface?
