Rather than releasing the gas into the atmosphere causing odours and damaging the environment, we use it to power this vehicle. Specifically, cow manure is digested creating natural gas and a soil amendment. This new vehicle essentially runs on the same type of fuel with the same benefits except it comes from cows. We use natural gas because it is clean burning, plentiful, and it makes our trucks a lot quieter. Because RNG is chemically identical to fossil-derived conventional natural gas, it can use the existing natural gas distribution system but must be compressed for use in vehicles. It is produced by purifying biogas, which is generated by the anaerobic digestion of organic materials such as waste from livestock.
Alternatively, renewable natural gas (RNG), also known as biomethane, is a pipeline-quality vehicle fuel. Natural gas is a fossil fuel because it is made from biogenic sources formed over millions of years by the action of heat and pressure on organic materials. Renewable natural gas allows us to improve our environmental performance even more.
As a side benefit, our vehicles are also 90% quieter when collecting in your neighbourhood and this is accomplished while remaining fiscally responsible since using natural gas costs significantly less than diesel. It has enabled us to reduce smog generating emissions by 90% in those vehicles. The Bluewater Recycling Association has been using compressed natural gas (CNG) to fuel most of its fleet since 2014. The answer is simple, it's how we power this new vehicle.
GREEN GARBAGE TRUCK POWERED BY NATURAL GAS CODE
You have likely reached this page after scanning the QR code on the side of our newest vehicle and you are wondering why we have chosen to display a cow's posterior on the side of our trucks.
