Recently, the first bunkering of biomassmethanol marine fuel for inland vessels in Shanghai took place at Luodong Container Terminal. The green methanol used was produced using the BESTm (Biogas Energy Science and Technology to Methanol) technology, jointly developed by ECUST and partner institutions. This marks a successful demonstration application of original technology from ECUST in marine fuel bunkering, following validation at a thousand-ton-scale pilot plant.Supported by a special project
