Alternative fuels for marine applications: Biomethanol-biodiesel-diesel blends

Recent emission related limits imposed on marine fuel are causing the ship owners to look for alternative fuels to comply with the new limits. Depletion of fossil fuel raised the attention of researchers to investigate renewable energy sources such as biodiesel and alcohol. Methanol blends as marine fuel leads to drastically reducing sulfur and particle emissions, adopting methanol also shows lower nitrogen oxide emissions and, when produced...
