Wärtsilä Exhaust Treatment

#HotOffThePress - Wärtsilä will supply its latest carbon capture and storage-ready scrubber systems - CCS-Ready scrubbers - for three container ships owned by German operator Leonhardt & Blumberg. A CCS-Ready solution will assure Leonhardt & Blumberg that it has continued regulatory compliance for SOx emissions today and opens the door to a smooth CCS system adoption in the future. The Wärtsilä solution significantly reduces a vessel’s operational expenses by enabling it to operate with less costly and more readily available fuel (HFO). At the same time, it significantly reduces the ship’s carbon footprint in line with the industry’s decarbonisation targets. “This project highlights and strengthens Wärtsilä’s commitment to deliver sustainable solutions for our customers. Our CCS-Ready scrubber technology has been proven in extensive testing over the past two and a half years. It is based on our deep experience and in-house know-how and will deliver a significant contribution to the industry’s efforts to reduce shipping’s environmental impact,” - Sigurd Jenssen, Director, Exhaust Treatment, Wärtsilä Marine.  Following a number of newbuild orders for CCS-Ready scrubbers, this will be one of the first retrofit projects prepared for CCS in the marine industry.

#HotOffThePress - Wärtsilä will upgrade the exhaust treatment system onboard four vessels in Norwegian operator Color Line's fleet. As maritime's drive for energy efficiency and emissions reductions become ever more urgent, ship owners and operators are seeking solutions which will help them to optimise vessel performance and reach sustainability targets. The upgrade to a hybrid scrubber system onboard these ships will give Color Line control over any abatement from the scrubber wash water, ensuring its vessels remain compliant with tightening regulations.  “Through adopting a modular approach, continuous research and development, as well as prioritising innovation, we are fully committed to developing abatement solutions which support the industry in its goals for reducing its emissions footprint. We have worked closely with Color Line in the past and are pleased to continue to support them with ensuring their assets operate safely, efficiently and sustainably.”  - Kashif Javaid, Director of Sales, Exhaust Treatment, Wärtsilä Marine.

#HotOffThePress - Wärtsilä has signed a six-year Lifecycle Agreement with Malaysia based Nautica Ship Management. The agreement covers two vessels, the MTT Saisunee & MTT Senari, and is designed to ensure that the ships’ exhaust gas treatment systems operate at maximum efficiency. The scope of the agreement includes remote access capabilities. This feature enables seamless monitoring and troubleshooting of the Exhaust Gas Cleaning (EGC) systems installed on the two vessels, ensuring prompt response and minimal downtime. “We are pleased to recognise Nautica’s professional approach to maintaining and future proofing their fleet and are proud to support them with this agreement. We constantly upgrade and improve our solutions in line with the latest and best available technology. Our 24/7 service, and especially the remote access feature, gives us the opportunity to provide immediate support and troubleshooting for these vessels, while delivering important cost savings,” comments David Zhongwei Xu, Wärtsilä Area Sales Manager in Singapore.

We are proud to share this insightful article by Sigurd Jenssen, Director of Wärtsilä Exhaust Treatment, which sheds light on the pivotal role of onboard carbon capture and storage (CCS) in shaping shipping's carbon-neutral future. With regulatory initiatives driving increased investments and proactive measures to incentivise CCS adoption, the journey towards net-zero shipping is becoming a reality. At Wärtsilä, we're accelerating the deployment of CCS for shipping, with the world’s first full-scale installation set for the summer of 2024. Our upcoming pilot onboard Solvang ASA’s ethylene carrier, Clipper Eris, demonstrates the technical viability of retrofitting CCS technology, marking a significant milestone in our commitment to climate neutrality. But it doesn’t stop there. Through extensive testing and collaboration, we're overcoming challenges in designing and integrating CCS systems onboard ships. Our CCS feasibility studies and CCS-ready scrubbers are empowering shipowners to embrace decarbonisation initiatives, ensuring a sustainable path forward for our planet and economy. By integrating CCS technology with our proven scrubber systems, we're not only meeting regulatory requirements, but also pioneering solutions that address broader environmental challenges.

A recent article by Ruth Herbert MPhys FEI, CEO of the Carbon Capture and Storage Association, highlighted the urgent need for a robust CO2 transport and storage infrastructure between the UK and EU, as well as the key challenges and opportunities this effort would involve. Herbert emphasises the role of technical measures, such as a mutual recognition of standards, to facilitate cross-border projects, despite political uncertainties. She also sees optimism in the European Commission's industrial carbon management strategy, which outlines a vision for CO2 transport and storage in Europe. At Wärtsilä Exhaust Treatment, we recognise the crucial importance of developing cross-border CO2 transport and storage infrastructure to achieve net-zero targets, and we are committed to providing future-proofed compliance solutions to support the industry in meeting its climate goals. As we work toward reducing maritime CO2 emissions, our CCS-ready scrubbers are leading the way in achieving immediate decarbonisation benefits for ship owners and operators, in the near future.

Some fascinating insights were shared at Riviera Maritime Media Ltd’s recent Maritime Decarbonisation Conference, in Asia. Which emphasised the continued importance of scrubbers, well into the 2040s. Donald Gregory, EGCSA Ltd Director, highlighted the critical role scrubbers play in reducing harmful emissions from ships that burn high sulphur fuel. Gregory pointed out that high sulphur fuel has a lower carbon footprint than processed low sulphur fuel, something that is often overlooked. Gregory emphasised that ships will continue to burn fuel onboard for the next two decades, and without scrubbers, many would still contribute emissions that may otherwise have been avoided. As leaders in exhaust gas abatement solutions, Wärtsilä Exhaust Treatment is committed to providing future-proofed compliance solutions. Our work to bring onboard carbon capture and storage (CCS) to market will enable us to continue to contribute to a more sustainable shipping industry. Stay tuned as we continue to pioneer CCS technologies, aiming for a major impact well ahead of 2030. Read more: https://lnkd.in/eqnRR4A3 #Shipping #Scrubber #CCS
