In recent years, LNG has made great progress in reducing carbon dioxide emissions. LNG is a cleaner alternative to coal and oil and reduces carbon dioxide emissions by 25-40 percent. However, the recently launched project It relies on biomethane, which is produced from manure obtained from local dairy farms..
According to the organizations, this renewable fuel has huge potential for factories and ships. MOL believes that biomethane can be seamlessly integrated into existing infrastructure. In addition to all this, biomethane production could also help better manage organic waste. Biomethane will be tested on ferries operated by Sunflower, a subsidiary of MOL. Of course, Japan is not the first country to test fuel produced from cow dung, as other countries are already testing this alternative fuel.
Takanashi Dairy Company has been contracted for milk products.
