MAN Energy Solutions has introduced the manufacturing of an enormous Cluster 5 Double Layer Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) converter to MITSUI E&S.
The cluster comes ammonia-ready and is the biggest such unit that the corporate has ever constructed.
Such methods are sometimes used aboard cruise ships and cargo ships to cut back nitrogen oxide emissions by 90%.
“As the very first SCR for an ammonia engine anywhere in the world, this is a historic moment. As the largest, high-pressure SCR we have ever built, this marks a new milestone for our business. The new equipment also passed its factory acceptance test without any major issues and I congratulate everyone involved in this groundbreaking project,” mentioned Daniel Struckmeier, Head of Sales & License Turbochargers & Exhaust Gas Treatment APAC.
The Cluster 5 Double Layer has a diameter of three,900 mm, a complete weight of 28 metric tons, and can shortly be out there for sequence manufacturing.
The high quality of the product was confirmed in the course of the closing inspection by MAN Energy Solutions and MITSUI E&S, after which the part was subsequently shipped from Dalian, China to Tamano, Japan.
Exhaust fuel after-treatment methods from MAN Energy Solutions optimise ship efficiency, not solely when it comes to emissions but additionally economic system and operation, in line with the corporate.
MAN SCR (selective catalytic discount) management methods are built-in into the general engine-control system and tailored to the fuel-injection system and turbocharger, enhancing the effectivity and reliability of your entire system.
Up to 2.5 g/kWh of fuel-oil consumption might be saved due to the mixing of MAN SCR and optimised management methods in comparison with using an SCR system supplied by a third-party provider.
Besides lowering NOx emissions by as much as 90%, in addition they ship IMO Tier III compliance and elevated effectivity in respect to gasoline and urea consumption.
