- 23/09/2009, Soot Deposits and Fires in Exhaust Gas Boilers
- The demand for the highest possible overall fuel efficiency is reflected in developments in the propulsion market for oceangoing ships. Today, this market is dominated by highly efficient two?stroke low speed diesel engines which run on low quality fuels and utilise (recover) the exhaust gas heat by means of an exhaust gas boiler/economiser.
- 15/06/2009, Improved Efficiency and Reduced CO2
- One of the future goals in the marine industry is to reduce the impact of CO2 emissions from ships in order to meet the coming stricter International Maritime Organisation (IMO) greenhouse gas emission requirements.
- 15/06/2009, Ambient Temperature Operation and Matching
- This paper will outline operation possibilities with a standard matched engine in any extreme temperature environment and describe the possibilities for special matching of engines for more permanent operation under such conditions.

- A Technical, Operational and Cost-effective Solution for Ships Fuelled by Gas This paper is about the latest developments in ME-GI dual fuel MAN B&W two-stroke engines and associated fuel supply systems. The discussion and interest in lowering CO2, NO, S and particulate emissions have increased operators’ and shipowners’ interest in investigating future fuel alternatives. The ME-GI engine offers the opportunity of utilising such an alternative.
- 28/05/2009, Influence of Ambient Temperature Conditions
- Two-stroke diesel engines used as prime movers in ships are exposed to the greatly varying climatic temperature conditions that prevail in different parts of the world and must therefore be able to operate under all ambient conditions from winter to summer and from arctic to tropical areas.
