Scrubber System Fabrication
STEP was invited to draw and fabricate an exhaust gas pipes system to complete an existing onboard scrubber system.
Situation:
The compliance with the new IMO (International Maritime Organization) regulations about the sulphur content in fuel (IMO 2020 – limit 0,50% m/m , since 1st Jan 2020) used in vessel locomotion, requires that vessels clean theirs exhaust gases by using exhaust scrubbing systems.
Scrubbers or Exhaust Gas Cleaning Systems (EGCS) are used to remove Sulphur and others oxides particulates from the exhaust gases generated by the combustion process in marine engines.
