  • Interesting how LNG has taken off. I assume that it is because it is supposed to be cleaner than existing diesel. The question I have is, has LNG actually been tested for particulates, have not seen any results of the “supposed” tests or who have actually conducted them.
    Personally I would agree with the WHO’s recent pronouncements on LNG, until test results are published together with the testing companies names.

    Our small company has tested biofuels a number of times, these fuels were supposed to be much cleaner than dirty old diesel. We were put up against the different biofuel companie’s testing agents, who it transpired had only tested their biofuels in a test lab – wonder whether it was similar to Volkswagen? The results obtained for CO2 were not but better than dirty diesel, however the particulates were far worse.
