  2. 1. Remote Measurements of Ship Emissions

    Author : Niklas Berg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; airborne; Ship emissions; sulphur dioxide; nitrogen dioxide; DOAS; in situ measurements; carbon dioxide;

    Abstract : The combustion of sulphur-containing fossil fuels gives rise to emissions of sulphurdioxide. Nitrogen oxides are also emitted when fuels are burned. The InternationalMaritime Organization (IMO) has ratified regulations regarding Sulphur Fuel Content(SFC) and NOx emissions from the shipping sector. READ MORE

  4. 2. Particle Emissions from Ships

    Author : Maria Zetterdahl; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LNG; marine fuel; fuel sulphur content; particle emission; sulphur emission control area; aromatics; SECA; heavy fuel oil; marine diesel oil; liquefied natural gas; ship emission;

    Abstract : Since 1st of January 2015 ships operating in sulphur emission control areas (SECAs) have to use marine fuels with a fuel sulphur content less than 0.1 %m/m. This regulation forces the ship owners to make a fuel shift and use low-sulphur marine fuel oils, use alternative fuels or use scrubbers on-board their ships. READ MORE

  5. 3. Reducing ships' fuel consumption and emissions by learning from data

    Author : Fredrik Ahlgren; Marcus Thern; Maria E. Mondejar; Cecilia Österman; Ann-Charlotte Larsson; Erik Dahlquist; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; shipping; energy efficiency; orc; machine learning; emissions; Sjöfartsvetenskap; Maritime Science;

    Abstract : In the context of reducing both greenhouse gases and hazardous emissions, the shipping sector faces a major challenge as it is currently responsible for 11% of the transport sector’s anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. Even as emissions reductions are needed, the demand for the transport sector rises exponentially every year. READ MORE

  6. 4. Remote Measurements of Gas and Particulate Matter Emissions from Individual Ships

    Author : Jörg Beecken; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; pollution; compliance monitoring; shipping; ship emission; particle emissions; identification of polluting ships; emission factors;

    Abstract : Shipping significantly contributes to the world's anthropogenic emissions of sulfur, nitrogen species and particulate matter. These species affect the global radiative forcing as well as local acidification, eutrophication and human health. READ MORE

  7. 5. A Generic Model for Simulation of the Energy Performance of Ships - from Early Design to Operational Conditions

    Author : Fabian Tillig; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; uncertainty analysis; ship design; ship operation; energy systems modelling; ship energy efficiency; fuel consumption;

    Abstract : Forecasts show a doubling of the world’s transportation needs until 2050. Shipping today accounts for 90% of all freight transport. Simultaneously, shipping must become cleaner and more energy-efficient to meet the target to more than halve 2005 greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. READ MORE
