Leader Briefing Tamara de Gruyter of Wärtsilä discusses the challenges of balancing footprint, solvent and energy requirements when marinising carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology.

12

Regulation

Will IMO acknowledge carbon capture’s potential in reducing a ship’s carbon intensity when the topic is discussed at MEPC80? Paul Gunton reports.

40 Design for Performance

FuelSave is patenting an innovative new development for EGR solutions that promises to not only reduce NOX emissions but also reduce CO2 emissions in an after treatment process.

Medium & Low Speed products discusses changes that are affecting the wider maritime propulsion market, and Accelleron’s response in an exclusive interview.

22 Green Ray

New advanced combustion technology designed to reduce methane slip is being developed for Wärtsilä’s large bore engine platform after earlier success with smaller engines.

Biomimetics offer a way

Kongsberg Maritime’s Rune Garen poses some difficult questions of Paul Gunton, and sees opportunities to learn from nature.

34 EGR expansions

MAN Energy Solutions’ Two-Stroke Business has seen the scope of EGR solutions expand since research began in 2004, as it has become a cornerstone in modern engine design and optimisation.

35 California Dreaming

The tanker industry is monitoring the development of regulations produced by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) that will affect the segment from 2025.
