How Has India Rapidly Rolled Out A Bigger Biofuel Blend?
The complex process of developing biofuel is one of the biggest growth markets for pressure relief valves, as the fermentation, processing, manufacturing and storage all require tanks that can manage the varying pressures and channel a mix of byproducts. As with a lot of sustainability drives, the adoption of more sustainable fuel blends varies by […]
Is Great Britain’s Biofuel Production Industry In Trouble?
Green energy is on the rise, not only in the form of batteries, solar and wind but also in the form of increasingly sophisticated biofuel manufacturing, which typically uses various forms of tanks with pressure relief valves in the production, refinement and storage phases. There are a lot of reasons for this; the joint concerns […]
Could Weeds Potentially Be Used As A Source Of Biofuel?
As the biofuel industry matures, there is a greater exploration of potential methods to make it more sustainable, less carbon-intensive and have less of an impact on existing agriculture. These advances affect every aspect of the manufacturing process, from harvesting biomass to production, refinement and storage in pressurised tanks with safety relief valves. As there […]
Why Was The Most Innovative Fuel-Saving Car Never Released?
The importance of versatile, robust fuel tanks with pressure relief valve systems has existed for as long as volatile chemicals have been transported, but a turning point for their use in fuel and biofuel can be traced to the 1970s. The Oil Crisis was a dramatic turning point, as a significant shortage and spiking price […]
Why Did Motorsport Start Using High-Pressure Rocket Fuels?
As the motoring world slowly moves away from fossil fuels, pressure relief valves have become more important than ever to allow for the safe creation and transportation of biofuels. These more environmentally friendly fuels, alongside similarly sustainable electrofuels, will see use even as consumer motoring transitions entirely to electric cars, as there will be a […]
Why Is Bioenergy An Essential Part Of The UK’s Energy Mix?
The UK government has committed to reaching net zero by 2050 and is working towards making the country a world-leader in renewable energy generation. While wind and solar power get many of the headlines, bioenergy is an important part of the UK’s energy mix. In fact, bioenergy is cited as one of the four main […]
What Does The Industrial Strategy Say About Bioenergy?
The transition to a greener energy sector and a low-carbon economy are both essential if Britain is to meet its Net Zero targets without undermining the industries that generate wealth and economic growth. That means the government’s new industrial strategy needs to deliver on both counts. A key section of the strategy is that relating […]
Is Sustainable Biofuel Crucial To The Future Of Aviation?
One of the biggest priorities in the transportation sector is sustainability, and a key to decarbonising carbon-intensive industries such as aviation and heavy freight shipping will be sustainable biofuels. This requires some adaptations in order to produce and store vast quantities of biofuel suitable for use as jet fuel or in blends with existing kerosene […]
What Are The Differences Between Biofuels And Electrofuels?
The future of transportation will consist of battery-powered electric vehicles and the use of sustainably sourced fuels such as biofuels, and the latter will require a range of relief valves and other safety systems to ensure it is produced, stored and transported safely. Whilst biofuels are the most commonly known, they are not the only […]
What Are Drop-In Biofuels & Why Are They Vital For Industry?
For many industries, the transition away from fossil fuels will be somewhat fragmented, and instead of there being a perfect one-size-fits-all replacement, there will be a wide range of different sustainable fuel sources, each of which has different production and safe storage needs. The transportation sector is moving at different speeds and in different directions […]
