NOx Emissions
Discussions on standardization of clean fuel ammonia
Ammonia fuel for glass production demonstrated in Japan
Asahi Glass Corporation announced it has successfully used 100% ammonia fuel to produce architectural glass over two days of testing at its Yokohama Technical Center, with NOx emissions below environmental thresholds. The news follows successful ammonia co-firing tests to produce cement clinker by Mitsubishi UBE Cement Corporation.
Maritime ammonia: fuel delivery, emissions mitigation systems near readiness
This week, we explore three new onboard systems: the Mitsubishi Ammonia Supply and Safety System (MAmmoSS®), Singapore-based C-LNG Solutions’ new ammonia low flash point fuel supply system, and a new NOx emission mitigation system developed by Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering and Hyundai Heavy Industries.
Creating Ammonia Value Chain for the Smooth Transition toward Carbon Neutrality
The integrated role of clean ammonia in maritime strategy
Learn how Japanese shipping giant Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL) is establishing a key role for clean ammonia in its holistic group strategy: and not just as an alternative maritime fuel.
Safety and the marine ammonia engine
Explore the critical topic of engine room safety, and what design considerations would be needed on a future, ammonia-fueled vessel. What learnings can we apply from running prototype engines? What lessons can be learned from current ammonia-handling industries like refrigeration? And what training will be needed to build confidence in seafarers?
NoGAPS vessel project enters next phase
The second phase of the NoGAPS project is well underway. Led by the Maersk Mc-Kinney Møller Center for Zero Carbon Shipping, a detailed plan for the design, operation and business case for the future MS NoGAPS vessel will be developed. Construction and delivery is expected in 2024-25. Also in Scandinavia, Viridis Bulk Carriers has been awarded AiP from Bureau Veritas for its ammonia-fueled, short-sea, bulk carrier design.
