Hello QueSeanians,
Let me share hereby an intresting white paper by CIMAC about the CCUS – Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage.
This white paper includes the current piloting plans in the maritime industry.
Wärtsilä is developing a solvent-based carbon capture system to fit into funnel casing for commercial shipping
Alfa Laval has executed a CCS test with Japan’s National Maritime Research Institute (NMRI) in the lab. The tests showed that a scrubber, the modified PureSOx system, could perform the CO2 capture from the auxiliary diesel engines in port, while operating in a closed loop.
Samsung Heavy Industries received an approval in principle (AIP) from the Korean Register of Shipping about the onboard CCS developed together with Panasia for LNG fulled vessels.
Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME) obtained a basic approval for a liquified carbon dioxide carrier from ABS. The vessel will have LNG propulsion engine and a carbon dioxide capture unit using ammonia-water sorbent and mineral carbonation technology developed by Hi Air Korea.
Mitsubishi Shipbuilding is piloting their CCS solution together with K-line and Class NK.
Value Maritime introduced a concept of exhaust gas “filtration” for engine sizes of 3-15 MW, where SOx, particulates and CO2 are captured.
