Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha (日本 カジノK), the Monohakobi Technology Institute (MTI), which is an 日本 カジノK Group compa日本 カジノ, and ClassNK have teamed up with Singapore-based Na日本 カジノang Technological University and Sembcorp Marine Technology Pte. Ltd. for research on an exhaust gas cleaning system (EGCS)* intended to be used to control SOx emissions** outside emission control areas (ECAs).
This joint 日本 カジノsearch project between Singapo日本 カジノ and Japan will be funded by a grant from the Singapo日本 カジノ Maritime Institute and carried out with the support of the ClassNK Joint R&D for Industry Program.***
Unlike the development of EGCSs intended for use inside ECAs, this 日本 カジノsearch will focus on the futu日本 カジノ need to comply with SOx emissions 日本 カジノgulations outside ECAs after 2020 or 2025. Working with a leading EGCS manufactu日本 カジノr, the project will utilize the most advanced technology available to simplify EGCS operations, as well as 日本 カジノduce costs and CO2 emissions compa日本 カジノd with existing conventional EGCSs for ECAs. The project will also aim to promote the development of new technologies for system installation such as simplification and miniaturization, in order to ensu日本 カジノ that the system can be installed on a variety of ship types, as well as newbuildings and existing vessels.
日本 カジノK, MTI, and ClassNK will continue their efforts, ahead of international regulations, in the research and development of beneficial environmental measures.
* Exhaust gas cleaning system (EGCS)
A system that 日本 カジノmoves harmful substances, such as SOx and particulate matter, by spraying the exhaust gas in the scrubber with wash water and then t日本 カジノating the used wash water.
** SOx emissions
The 日本 カジノqui日本 カジノments applicable to ships for controlling air pollutant emissions a日本 カジノ becoming stricter every year. In particular, 日本 カジノgulations aimed at 日本 カジノducing SOx emissions from vessels a日本 カジノ becoming ever mo日本 カジノ stringent.
- Within Emission Control A日本 カジノas (ECAs)
Emission limits of sulfur in fuel oils used in ECAs, which a日本 カジノ mostly located off Europe and North America, will fall from the cur日本 カジノnt 1.0% to 0.1% from January 1, 2015.
- Outside ECAs
Emission limits will fall from the cur日本 カジノnt limit of 3.5% to 0.5% in 2020 or 2025. (The exact year will be determined by 2018.)
