Hydrotreated vegatable oil (HVO) is stable, renewable, sustainable and of high quality and therefore offers better combustion, filterability and cold temperature performance than fossil diesel, while significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions when burned.
Every day at Van Waveren Transport we are working on greener alternatives for less harmful emissions from our trucks. We want to leave a healthy planet for future generations and guarantee the well-being of humans and animals. By reducing emissions, we keep a balance between the growing demand for our tank transport and protecting the environment.
All tank trucks on HVO or Bio-LNG
In addition to Bio-LNG, Shell now also offers an alternative to diesel and thus responds to the ever-growing demand for more sustainable fuels. All tankers at Van Waveren Transport now run on HVO or Bio-LNG. This way we can go greener and reduce CO2e emissions. Reductions of up to 90% are possible compared to normal diesel.
Cleaner burning alternative
Shell Renewable Diesel, as HVO is called at Shell, is a cleaner burning alternative to EN590 diesel fuel. Due to the high cetane number, Shell Renewable Diesel also reduces local emissions (NOx and particulate matter) and also lowers engine noise. This fuel also improves the cold start of the engine.
