Optimal Hedging Strategies in the Low‐Sulphur Bunker Fuel Landscape
ABSTRACT The IMO2020 regulation for the green transition in shipping turned the industry into using two compliant bunker fuels: very low‐sulphur fuel oil (VLSFO) and low‐sulphur marine gas oil (LSMGO). VLSFO futures contracts introduced in late 2019 and other energy‐related futures contracts indicate that the VLSFO contracts trading on the Singapore ...

Abstract Despite growing recognition that countries around the world must transition to a low‐carbon economy, global greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise. One way that decarbonization has been obstructed, we argue, is by fossil fuel firms intentionally conflating their agenda with ‘the people’, evoking notions of national identity, security and ...

PURE PALM OIL SPRAY CHARACTERISTICS OF DIESEL FUEL INJECTOR
Diesel engines are widely used in many sectors due to their advantages of high energy density. To reduce emissions in diesel engines, a step that can be taken is to use renewable biofuel such as pure palm oil, which has a high viscosity and is difficult ...

This show the biodegradation of spent lubricating oil by Bacillus sp. and a marine bacterial consortium. The consortium showed higher growth, biosurfactant production and oil removal efficiency than the isolated strain, highlighting its potential for bioremediation ABSTRACT Spent automotive lubricating oil contains complex hydrocarbons and heavy metals,

The Biofuels Blueprint: Understanding the U.S. Renewable Fuel Standard
ABSTRACT We provide a comprehensive review of the U.S. Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS), synthesizing nearly two decades of program evolution, market outcomes, and economic analysis. The RFS mandates minimum volumes of renewable fuel blending through a nested structure based on life‐cycle greenhouse gas reductions, enforced via tradeable Renewable ...

Palm oil as a fuel for agricultural diesel engines: Comparative testing against diesel oil
Due to unstable oil price situation in the world market, many countries have been looking for alternative energy sources to substitute for petroleum. Vegetable oil is one of the alternatives which can be used as fuel in automotive engines either in the form of straight vegetable oil, or in the form of ethyl or methyl ester.
