low-carbon, clean air trucking. There are three compelling reasons why RNG is helping sustainable companies decarbonize their transportation today. RNG IS THE LOWEST CARBON TRANSPORTATION
FUEL AVAILABLE RNG is derived from organic material found in green waste, food waste, landfills, sewage treatment and livestock manure. These organic wastes naturally decompose into methane.
Methane that leaks into the atmosphere is a potent short-lived climate pollutant and greenhouse gas. Rather than releasing into the atmosphere, methane can be captured and converted into a
drop-in replacement fuel for conventional natural gas. TO CONTINUE READING THIS ARTICLE... ALREADY HAVE AN ACCOUNT? SIGN IN CREATE A FREE ACCOUNT No payment required NEED HELP? CONTACT US
