MAN engines has achieved quite an important result in terms of emissions reduction. Thanks to the use of biofuel, a Jan De Nul vessel obtained remarkable 85 percent CO2 reduction. In particular, its trailing suction hopper dredger, ‘Alexander von Humboldt’, has completed 2,000 hours operation on 100...

Diesel algae and LumoFuel. We mentioned this smart approach to biodiesel almost ten years ago (biofuels? Read more…). Now it’s time to talk about LumoFuel. What is this? It is a washing machine sized household ‘bioreactor’ which uses algae to turn CO2 and sunlight into a usable diesel th...

Most recent data available evaluating California’s Low Carbon Fuels Standard has demonstrated that diesel engines and equipment using advanced biofuels, including biodiesel and renewable diesel fuel, have delivered more greenhouse gas reduction benefits than vehicle electrification and even ethanol....
