Canada, Quebec announce BioMer biodiesel project The governments of Canada and Quebec announced BioMer--a $563,000 (CAD) project to demonstrate biodiesel as a cleaner and viable alternative fuel for cruise ships. The project will run from June to October 2004 in two tourist- intensive areas in Quebec: the St. Lawrence River and Lachine Canal. In addition to measuring emissions, the BioMer project will highlight the impact of biodiesel on marine engine performance and river ecology. During the project, 254,000 liters of biodiesel will be required to fuel the BioMer fleet: 11 boats on pure biodiesel (B100) and one on a 5% biodiesel blend (B5). The Government of Canada will allocate a total of $323,000 to the project. At the provincial level, the Quebec Environment and Transport departments support the project with a total of $25,000. http://www.newswire.ca/en/releases/archive/July2004/28/c6642.html ------------------------ Yahoo!
