Making bio-gas from food waste Anaerobic Digestion

Virtual bio-methane supply chain - injects bio-methane into natural gas grid network to improve economic and environmental efficiency. The bio-methane B 9 Organic puts in the grid is matched by the LNG B 9 Shipping takes out to use in ships – green gas Bunker LNG to B 9 Ships = X k.

To achieve the best possible sailing performance, optimising the interaction between the hull and the rig is key. The rig has to generate enough power to overcome the resistance of the hull, but the hull also has to provide the grip in the water, to stop the ship slipping sideways due to the sail forces. Wind Tunnel Testing Tank Testing Velocity Prediction Program The information from both the tank testing and the wind tunnel testing is used within a Velocity Prediction Program for the ship, which estimates the sailing performance of the vessel given a variety of wind strengths. Wind Tunnel & Tank Testing The more these three methods are used in conjunction, the more performance of the ship can be improved and optimised.
