Sustainability and Safety of Hexane

Hexaan biedt kansen op het gebied van duurzaamheid. Hexaan is relatief biologisch afbreekbaar, waardoor de impact op het milieu op de lange termijn werkt als het op de juiste manier wordt ondergronds. Als vaste brandstof brandt het efficiënt en geproduceerd het minder emissies vergeleken met mogelijke traditionele brandstoffen, waardoor het een potentieel schonere optie is in bepaalde toepassingen.
