Clean air, clean water<br />

Green technology from Aalborg Industries.<br />

To comply with new international<br />

requirements concerning lower sulphur<br />

emissions from ships – Emission Control<br />

Areas – shipowners must switch to fuel<br />

with low or no sulphur content, or clean<br />

their vessel’s exhaust gases.<br />

Based on proven in-house technology,<br />

Aalborg Industries develops new and costsaving<br />

sulphur emission abatement<br />

technologies to clean exhaust gases from<br />

ship engines.<br />

With Aalborg Industries’ exhaust gas<br />

scrubber it is possible to clean the<br />

exhaust gas from a ship’s main and<br />

auxiliary engines by washing the<br />

exhaust gas with sea or fresh water<br />

added to caustic soda.<br />

The cleaning of exhaust gases is a vital<br />

and cost-saving alternative and a<br />

supplement to using fuel with low or no<br />

sulphur content. Apart from cleaning SOx<br />

emissions, the exhaust gas scrubbers<br />

have also proven to be more effective in<br />

removing harmful particles from exhaust<br />

gases of diesel engines when compared<br />

to switching to low sulphur fuels.<br />

Aalborg Industries’ AquaTriComb is<br />

designed to clean ballast water without<br />

the use of chemicals while keeping<br />

energy requirements relatively low.<br />

The system offers outstanding<br />

efficiency combined with low operating<br />

costs and a small footprint for onboard<br />

installation. Ballast water is cleaned<br />

using UV light in combination with<br />

ultrasound for disinfection on a<br />

continuous and waste-free basis. Thanks<br />

to the use of ultrasonic technology the<br />

system is self-cleaning and almost<br />

entirely maintenance-free.<br />

To be in full compliance with IMO<br />

legislation, the AquaTriComb is active<br />

during deballasting where the water is<br />

again passed through the system for<br />

cleaning and filtration.<br />

This ensures that bacteria and microorganisms<br />

in the inaccessible ballast<br />

tanks and channels of the ship are<br />

effectively eliminated and only clean<br />

water is returned to the sea. �<br />

The MKN range of catering equipment<br />

can handle the toughest demands.
