A containerized 600 kWh marine battery system will be installed in a trial on board the Maersk Cape Town in December 2019 to improve vessel performance and reliability while reducing CO 2 emissions. Propelling marine vessels with battery power alone is still years away from being a technically- and economically-viable option, Maersk says.

The solution ensuring compliance with the IMO Tier III limits is MAN Engines’ modular exhaust gas aftertreatment (EAT) system, which was exhibited at the SMM trade fair last year. Two of the variants that are possible due to the installation flexibility of MAN Engines’ modular exhaust gas aftertreatment system.

In response to the growing demand for more efficient and reliable marine propulsion that serves the needs of an increasingly environmentally sustainable industry, WinGD (Winterthur Gas & Diesel Ltd.) The X82DF engine has an integrated gas pressure regulation unit (iGPR), replacing the standalone GVU.

French shipping line CMA CGM, based in Marseille, has selected Winterthur Gas & Diesel’s (WinGD’s) largest, 92 cm bore, dual-fuel low-speed engine to power what are presently the largest containerships ever ordered. The 12X92DF engines will be rated 63,840 kW at 80 rpm, making them the most powerful gas and dual-fuel engines ever built.

Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) system for marine diesel engines that use C heavy oil. have jointly developed a DPF system for marine diesel engines, which run on C heavy oil. The filter collects particulate matter (PM) when exhaust gas goes through it. Click to enlarge.

Wärtsilä has already introduced tug designs featuring liquefied natural gas (LNG) fuel technology as an efficient means for complying with environmental legislation. Using less engine power also decreases exhaust emission levels and, therefore, the environmental impact.

This is due to raw, externally premixed fresh charge comprising air, fuel and lube oil being short-circuited into the exhaust during the scavenging process. Even with the move to four-stroke engines, additional complexity will be necessary—possibly exhaust after-treatment—in order to fully meet regulations. Oh and Plante.

OP engines are propelling ships, driving locomotives, powering natural gas compressors, running chillers and pump drives, and producing electricity in a variety of marine and stationary applications. The benefits of two-stroke, opposed-piston designs are well-known: fewer moving parts, less maintenance and reduced operating costs.

The design aims to be fuel-efficient and maintenance–friendly, with high operational flexibility. Design variants are available for fuel switching systems, installation of selective catalytic reduction and exhaust gas scrubbing systems and, in the near future, the use of LNG as fuel. This equates to about 1,000 ships.
