Wastefront’s updated Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) by independent auditor DNV has found that “the plant’s environmental benefits are now even more pronounced than before”. Top-line environmental improvements include the following.
Michelin reports that its inflatable Wing Sail Mobility (WISAMO) system has been installed on the Compagnie Maritime Nantaise ro-ro container ship MN Pelican. The vessel is testing the inflatable system’s endurance and use on its weekly rotations between Bilbao, Spain and Poole, UK. Feedback generated by these tests will support the giant wing sail’s ongoing development.
Wastefront recently appointed Norwegian international accredited registrar and classification society DNV GL to conduct a Life Cycle Assessment for Wastefront’s proposed tyre to hydrocarbon plant in Sunderland. The Sunderland plant, which was announced last summer and which will be delivered in association with Devaltec LLC, is due to be completed in 2023. Now Wastefront’s Sunderland plant is roughly two years away from operation, the company has shared some of the primary base-case scenario findings from the report with Tyres & Accessories.
