Danish Project CLEANSHIP Shows Marine Biofuel Reduces Black Carbon Emissions by 81% on Uni-Tankers Vessel
The Danish CLEANSHIP project demonstrated that marine biofuel can reduce black carbon emissions by up to 81% on the Uni-Tankers vessel Falstria Swan, as measured by an onboard sensor. This significant reduction in black carbon, alongside lower net CO2 emissions from biodiesel (B100), underscores its potential impact on the shipping sector's climate footprint. The findings have been submitted to the International Maritime Organization for review.

A Danish project, CLEANSHIP, found that marine biofuel can cut black carbon emissions by up to 81% during operations on the Uni-Tankers vessel Falstria Swan. The data were collected using an onboard black carbon sensor developed by Green Instruments and the Danish Technological Institute.
The project highlighted that biodiesel (B100) not only reduces net CO2 but also significantly impacts black carbon emissions, crucial for the shipping sector's climate footprint. The findings have been submitted to the International Maritime Organization (IMO) for consideration at its PPR sub-committee meeting in February. CLEANSHIP is a collaborative initiative involving multiple partners, including the Danish Environmental Protection Agency.
