Talks from industry specialists at METSTRADE Holland Yachting Stage

‘Green’, ‘sustainability’, ‘eco-friendly’, ‘hybrid-propulsion’, these are just a few of the buzzwords currently circulating the yachting industry. Propelled into overdrive by the pandemic, regulations are tightening and industry specialists are searching for new ways to reduce their yacht's environmental footprint before it's too late.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/38749/image/large-87e5047e510a12cdeb8644a02576e2c7.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/38749">Emission control specialists, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5712" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Emigreen (Company)">Emigreen</a>, can supply a solution to reduce these troubling Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) emitted by your yacht’s engine – introducing their Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/200359/image/large-8ae9618347d6a116a3cee396aa1608e2.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/200359">How to reduce your yacht's environmental footprint?Industry leaders and yacht owners alike are looking for new solutions to make their yachts more environmentally-friendly, whether that be by introducing innovative hybrid-propulsion systems, or other methods. However, emission control specialists, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5712" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Emigreen (Company)">Emigreen</a>, have a solution adaptable to all yachts to help you start reducing emissions today.&nbsp;An SCR is an exhaust aftertreatment process that minimises the harmful NOx emissions produced by diesel engines. By injecting a urea water solution into the exhaust stream, the urea is converted into ammonia, which bonds to the NOx, before the catalytic converter reduces the toxic components into harmless nitrogen and water vapour, which is then safely released into the atmosphere. These systems are easily installed and maintained and most importantly, future-proof your yacht for emissions standard compliance to allow your yacht to meet IMO Tier III emission levels. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/200362/image/large-d3db5173aa630566d21ce23f4a3e800f.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/200362">What are the latest IMO Tier III regulations?In January 2016 maritime law ruled that engines above 130 kilowatts on vessels over 500 GT and 24 metres in length had to control their NOx emission levels. At the time, these regulations only applied in Emission Control Areas (ECAs), which included North America and the Caribbean. However, as of January 2021, these regulations and ECA’s were extended to the Baltic Sea and North Sea, as well as any sub-500 GT vessels which are 24 metres or longer in length. Ultimately, this now means many new superyachts being built need to control their emission levels to be Tier III compliant.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/200363/image/large-bb1c119063d44f0d3a8e758771410251.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/200363">What does this mean and how can&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5712" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Emigreen (Company)">Emigreen</a>&nbsp;assist?&nbsp;Many sub-500 GT superyachts 24-metres or longer recently built or still under construction, now have to undertake the task of reducing their NOx levels to comply with IMO Tier III. An SCR system is essential to ensure compliance with these regulations. Unfortunately, SCR systems can often be bulky and take up lots of space in the engine room, however <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5712" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Emigreen (Company)">Emigreen</a> has found a way to create a compact and small SCR system compatible with almost all modern marine diesel engines aboard your superyacht.<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5712" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Emigreen (Company)">Emigreen</a> systems are cleverly tailored to make the best use of available space. Every aftertreatment system can be custom engineered to engine-specific settings, specifications and performance, however if a standard system fits, then a standard system will be used. Depending on the engine load and temperature of the exhaust gasses, the SCR unit is programmed to inject the exact amount of urea needed to reduce NOx emissions below the required level. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/200360/image/large-a6213203323dabd32003c276259bfaa4.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/200360">Furthermore, their silencer is integrated into the unit, cancelling the need for a bulky, space consuming silencer. The <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5712" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Emigreen (Company)">Emigreen</a> SCR system is easy to install, simple for crew to maintain, and an absolute must for your superyacht. They are smaller than many alternatives, making them more suitable for your superyacht. The SCR can also be installed as a retrofit, even in spaces that look too small.So if you are ready to take the first step in making your superyacht IMO Tier III compliant, and more importantly, environmentally-friendly, then get in touch with <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5712" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Emigreen (Company)">Emigreen</a> to discuss your very own Selective Catalytic Reduction system.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/200361/image/large-cf80a847724dea74e3c6e384c279766d.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/200361">

Emigreen and your yacht's environmental footprint

Here, SYT speak to emission control specialists Emigreen on how to reduce your yacht's environmental footprint

How to reduce your yacht's environmental footprint

In the age of global warming, climate change and plastic pollution, now is the time to be evaluating the industry’s efforts in being efficient and sustainable. The ways to earn the accolade of being ‘green’ are many and varied - but one easy solution is to clean exhausts and emissions. As the International Maritime Organization (IMO) is actively working to reduce vessel waste, new legislations are changing the way superyachts are being built. <img src="https://d3w3pid64ak8v.cloudfront.net/photo/89330/image/large-4ef399917e6c5f1b998ef136b123ba1d.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/89330">More often than not, new-builds will now include a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) and/or a Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system. These future-proof systems eliminate 98% of expelled soot, reduce NOx to below IMO Tier III levels and attenuate noise by up to 45dB(A). As this state-of-the-art technology becomes an essential asset in the engine room, SuperYacht Times asks the system manufacturer <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5712" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Emigreen (Company)">Emigreen</a> how these exhaust gas after-treatment systems work.<img src="https://d3w3pid64ak8v.cloudfront.net/photo/167807/image/large-3a570106e9c3aaa9f4fda6e2e1387b96.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/167807">By catching 98% of the visible particles from exhaust pipes, a DPF exhaust gas cleaning system ensures that no carbon particles are left on the deck or in the surrounding waters. With their next-generation systems, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5712" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Emigreen (Company)">Emigreen</a> has made a compact and reliable solution with various options to incorporate SCR and DPF systems either together or independently into one silencer housing - meaning that harmful NOx and noise emissions are a thing of the past, as is the smell of engine exhaust and soot. <img src="https://d3w3pid64ak8v.cloudfront.net/photo/75894/image/large-9a7b9fda1f42b993a60427ed8ed0b762.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/75894">A high-performance exhaust silencer is integrated inside the system and can be controlled on a user-level base by a touch screen in the engine room and monitored remotely on the bridge. This is where simple settings such as a forced regeneration can be used to pre-schedule ash removals. Whatever the preferred method of maintenance is, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5712" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Emigreen (Company)">Emigreen</a> can tailor the system to suit the project at hand. <img src="https://d3w3pid64ak8v.cloudfront.net/photo/167808/image/large-903b514fdaee521b8bdfaf672a10f59d.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/167808">A vacuum cleaner and compressed air work together to remove ash easily from the system. On the rare occasion the elements need to be outed from the structure, the mounting frame is simply lifted out of the housing. To ensure that the superyacht can keep cruising with noise attenuation in place, the solution can be supplied with optional additional acoustic elements. <img src="https://d3w3pid64ak8v.cloudfront.net/photo/83140/image/large-1bd4812cde95cf59a2987633528dc6ed.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/83140">The solution can fit any superyacht project - whether it be for a refit or a new-build - a system can be incorporated into the design at any stage. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5712" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Emigreen (Company)">Emigreen</a>’s after-treatment systems are custom designed to merge seamlessly into any engine room; as proven on board one of the world’s largest sailing superyachts, which features four of the systems. Here, the yacht’s general arrangement instantly benefited as the compact system requires only a fraction more of space than the silencer in the engine room. Plus, the system works in replacement of the yacht’s silencer which also frees up space and lessens the load. <img src="https://d3w3pid64ak8v.cloudfront.net/photo/167806/image/large-442098f2efd32336bc2fd56aef948dd5.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/167806">To grow the positive reputation for the industry, owners and their teams can play their part and install more and more eco-friendly innovations onboard. With <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5712" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Emigreen (Company)">Emigreen</a>’s DPF and SCR system combination packages, the aim is to eliminate damaging practices which have negative connotations on the industry; such as fouling in ports or the image of black smoke trailing behind superyachts. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<img src="https://d3w3pid64ak8v.cloudfront.net/photo/120040/image/large-b1a03256e48bb862dd298d4d2494f129.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/120040">As more and more ports opt to keep yachts without exhaust gas cleaning systems anchored outside, get ahead of the game and find out exactly how one can be installed on your superyacht via the contact details found below.
