FREMONT,
Calif., June 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Power Knot
Ocean, the market leader for onboard organic waste management
solutions in the marine environment, announced today that Enesel
has deployed multiple units of the LFC biodigester across their
fleet. This strategic move underscores Enesel's commitment to
sustainable practices and environmental stewardship within the
maritime industry.
Enesel, a prominent global shipping company, is known for its
dedication to operational excellence and environmental
responsibility. With a diverse fleet of vessels operating
worldwide, Enesel continuously seeks innovative solutions to
enhance efficiency and minimize environmental impact.
The LFC® biodigester is a machine that digests food waste. These
machines are usually installed in a galley or recycling center and
reduce the expense, inconvenience, mess, and carbon footprint of
disposing of food waste that would otherwise be taken off in a
tender. Power Knot Ocean has nine different sizes that digest from
10 kg (20 lb) per day to 6000 kg (13200 lb) per day of food waste.
With many hundreds of installations globally on land and on the
ocean, the LFC biodigester has proven to be reliable, safe, and
cost effective.
Enesel's decision to install the LFC biodigester is driven by
several key benefits, including the elimination of mess and odors,
and ensures environmental protection in protected waters. The
biodigester simplifies operations by eliminating the need to
dispose of food waste ashore, thereby reducing logistical
challenges. Furthermore, digesting food waste onboard significantly
reduces the volume of waste sent to landfills, mitigating harmful
methane emissions.
This initiative aligns with Enesel's Environmental, Social, and
Governance (ESG) goals and helps in earning Emissions Trading
System (ETS) credits, enhancing its reputation among charterers who
prioritize sustainability and environmental awareness. Lastly, the
integration of the LFC biodigester streamlines food waste-related
operations, improving overall efficiency onboard.
Enesel's deployment of the LFC biodigester exemplifies the
company's proactive approach to environmental sustainability and
operational excellence. Power Knot Ocean is proud to support Enesel
in this initiative, providing innovative solutions that contribute
to a cleaner and more sustainable maritime industry.
