Shells from cashew nuts are being used to make biofuel for shipping in a new project involving Norwegian car carrier outfit UECC.
The company is part of a new collaboration with technology firm Wartsila, Lloyd’s Register’s fuel business and Netherlands-based biofuel supplier ACT Group.
The aim is to blend ACT’s biofuel, a liquid made from cashew nut shells, with a regular ISO-grade maritime diesel to power a UECC vessel.
