Exhaust Gas Pressurized Boiler for Large two-stroke Marine Engines

The aim of the project is to reduce the CO2 emission of large ships up to 7%, through integration of a new gas boiler.The new boiler results in higher efficiency due the use of heat recovery from the ship engine.

Project description

The aim of this project is to develop a new boiler (EGP) for large two-stroke ship engines. The EGP can reduce the CO2 emissions by 4-7% from seagoing vessels by improving the total energy efficiency of the engine, the heat waste recovery system and the steam system on board sea going vessels, with large TIER III compliant or EGR two-stroke marine diesel engines. The activities in the project include
- Installation, testing and demonstration of an EGP boiler on board a 4500 teu Maersk container vessel.
- Designing an EGP boiler for integration on a TIER III compliant or EGR two-stroke diesel engine.
- Design modification of a two-stroke diesel engine with an EGP-boiler installed in the EGR system of a MAN B&W two-stroke Tier III diesel engine.
- Develop a calculation tool that will provide necessary information on parameters for optimization of WHR with EGP boiler.

The project will result in a new product which matches the ship owners’ demand for energy efficiency and environmental friendly operation of ships. The EGP boiler in combination with EGR will comply with the IMO NOx TIER III criteria’s valid from 1.1.2016.
