Sulphur
oxides as major pollutants from the burning of marine Heavy Fuel Oil
are a great deal reduced nowadays. Apart from the fact that permitted
percentage of sulphur in fuel in Emission Control Area (i.a. Baltic Sea)
is 0,1%, IMO has specified limit of 0,5% for whole world from 2020.
This must be taken into account by all of the ship owners and operators.
The
simplest solution is to shift into low-sulphur marine gas oil. However,
MGO is approximately three times more expensive than HFO. This
situation is likely to be even worse when it comes to growing demand.
Exhaust
Gas Cleaning Systems so-called „scrubbers” are getting more and more
popular as long-term cheaper, adequately reliable and approved
alternative.
Naval-Tec
has designed hybrid Scrubber concept project designeted for cruise
vessel. Any installation like that requires significant works on vessel
systems i.a.: piping, electric, fire integration and structural.
Naval-Tec is able to provide you with all necessary engineering
documentation as well as support during selection of scrubber supplier,
shipyard, installation and commisioning.
