This system exactly measures the loaded and discharged volumes by mass measurement technology.

Biofuels are an ‘umbrella name’ for a wide variety of fuels that are made out of bio mass. Liquid renewables are mostly produced to replace fossil fuels such as gasoline, diesel and kerosene.

Some examples of renewable biofuels are bio-ethanol, bionaphta, biodiesel, biobuthanol, biomethanol, bio-ETBE and synthetic biobenzine. Sustainability has become an integrated part of (our) modern business and renewable fuels are becoming a substitution for fossil fuels. Our modern and sophisticated fleet offers the best sustainable transporting solution for our clients.
