Alfa Laval wins groundbreaking marine environmental order from MAN Diesel & Turbo

Alfa Laval – a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid
handling – has won the first commercial order from MAN Diesel & Turbo to supply
Alfa Laval PureNOx water treatment systems to be integrated in a process to
reduce harmful nitrogen oxides (NOx) emission onboard vessels. The order is
worth approximately SEK 7 million and delivery is scheduled for 2013.
“This is a groundbreaking order in many ways; It is our first commercial order
for Alfa Laval PureNOx water treatment system and it will be integrated in a new
solution on the market which fully complies with the upcoming regulations – and
the order is from the world’s leading provider of low speed diesel engines”,
says Lars Renström, President and CEO of the Alfa Laval Group. “The order also
confirms our position as an innovative supplier of marine environmental
solutions.”

The Alfa Laval PureNOx Water treatment system (WTS) is developed together with
MAN Diesel & Turbo to be integrated in their Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR)
process to reduce the NOx emissions from the main engines of the ships. The Alfa
Laval WTS will clean the circulating scrubber water to protect the EGR system –
and also clean the excess water formed during combustion – before it is being
discharged overboard.

The International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) convention for the reduction of
nitrogen oxides (NOx) will come into force in 2016 demanding NOx emissions to be
reduced by 80 percent relative to 2000 levels – and it will affect newly built
ships sailing in the special Emission Control Areas (ECAs) defined for NOx (as
per today defined as large parts of the coastline of Canada and the US).

Did you know that… there are two main technological alternatives to meet the new
requirements for nitrogen emissions: Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) and
Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR)?
