Cleaner Fuel for Cruise Ships and Other Big Vessels From Ingredients in Detergents, Medicines
American Chemical Society (ACS)Scientists today described development of a new fuel mixture to ease the major air pollution and cost problems facing cruise ships, oil tankers and container ships. These vessels tend to burn the cheapest and most highly polluting form of diesel fuel. Their report was part of the 244th National Meeting & Exposition of the American Chemical Society, the world’s largest scientific society, being held here this week.
