What is Exhaust Emissions and Control about?

Marine engine designers in recent years have had to address the challenge of tightening controls on noxious exhaust gas emissions imposed by national, regional and international authorities responding to concern over atmospheric pollution and its impact on human health and climate change. Curbing emissions has stimulated unprecedented co-operation between rival marine enginebuilders/designers, most notably in the European Union-sponsored Hercules Project, which aims at developing new technologies to significantly reduce gaseous and particulate emissions from engines while raising their efficiency and reliability. Among the R&D tasks are thermodynamics and mechanics of 'extreme' parameter engines, advanced combustion concepts, multistage 'intelligent' turbocharging, 'hot' engines with energy recovery and compounding, internal emission reduction methods and advanced after-treatment techniques, new sensors for emissions and performance monitoring and adaptive control for electronically controlled engines. Exhaust gas emissions from marine diesel engines largely comprise nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide and water vapour, with smaller quantities of carbon monoxide, oxides of sulphur and
