As a term for automotive fuel, e100 means that there's no 
petroleum/gasoline whatsoever in the mix:

Similarly, I take "biodiesel" to mean b100, as is sold at at least one 
servo in Sydney.  b5 and b20 are more commonly-available grades of Diesel.

Except that it's understood that Australian servos will sell 91 octane 
ULP, whereas that fuel is excluded by default on www.osmfuel.org - only 
the European grades (95 and 98 octane) come up unless 91 is explicitly 
added.
