Anyone using Propel HPR fuel in their Diesel?

Federal government definition of biodiesel
Biodiesel
Biodiesel is diesel fuel made from vegetable oils, animal fats, or recycled restaurant greases. It's safe, biodegradable, and produces less air pollutants than petroleum-based diesel.
Biodiesel can be used in its pure form (B100) or blended with petroleum diesel. Common blends include B2 (2% biodiesel), B5, and B20.
Most automakers approve blends up to B5. Some approve blends up to B20. Check with your owner’s manual or automaker to determine the right blend for your vehicle. Using the wrong blend could damage your engine and/or void the manufacturer's warranty.

HPR WEBSITE STATES;
Diesel HPR is a premium fuel engineered to maximize clean diesel engine performance. Diesel HPR meets the ASTM D975 diesel specification (ULSD) for use in all diesel engines. Refined from recycled fats & oils, Diesel HPR outperforms both petroleum diesel and biodiesel in performance, emissions and value. Diesel HPR does not contain biodiesel.
SO it is made from recycled fats and oils but is not biodiesel.
This does not pass my sniff test
