IMO / MARPOL Annex VI regulation 13 (NOx )

What are the 2-stroke engine relevant NOx emission limits?

Effective date reviewed in 2014

• The global Tier II NOx limit is 14.4 g/kWh

• The NOx ECA (NECA) limit will be 3.4 g/kWh

• Effective date (keel lay of ship) 1.1.2016 for American NECA, others after designation

SCR experience EGR experience• Wärtsilä > 550 units ordered / installed

(marine & power plants, 4s, 2s)

• SCR allows lower investment and maintenance costs

• SCR has no impact on in cylinder performance (piston running parts and combustion) – ‘dry’ system

• Combustion is changed impacting engine reliability – ‘wet’ system

• Sophisticated and cost intensive cleaning device (on engine and in vessel) to keep reliable operation and long lifetime of components

SCR principle: the same for HP and LP

1. Urea solution is dosed into the exhaust gas, to produce ammonia (NH3)ORInlet from external ammonia generator

2. It passes porous, catalytic elements…

3. NOx are reduced to nitrogen (N2) and water (H2O)

Conclusions – SCR / EGR

• SCR technology development started some 20 years ago, succesfull applied in automotive industry.

• SCR technology has matured and proven in many medium-speed engine installations, experience available also with low-speed engines

• Big number of SCR- and Ceramic Suppliers in the market

• Urea supply logistics will be ready in 2016

• EGR technology development started some 10 years ago. Still several technicalchallenges to be solved. Ready for market introduction in 2017/8

Low-pressure DF concept

The Principle: • Pre-mixed ‘Lean burn’

technology (Otto process)

• Low pressure gas admission at ’mid stroke’

• Ignition by pilot fuel in prechamber

CO2 and SOx reduced in gas operation due to fuel composition

NOx very low with LP technology due to lower peak temperature

PM further reduced by the DF technology with lean-burn Otto combustion with pre-chamber ignition

The 2s DF reduces the total CO2(including methane slip) footprint compared to HFO

The benefit of our concept

1) Meets IMO Tier III requirements without exhaust gas after-treatment due to lean burn Otto combustion process

2) Low CAPEX due to low pressure gas supply system• Low pressure equipment (pumps, compressor, evaporator,

piping, sensors, …. )• No exhaust gas after treatment required

3) Competitive OPEX due to high overall efficiency • Lower electrical power demand• Lower maintenance cost• Lower gas leakage risk

4) Full Wärtsilä Package - Complete and modularized solutions for LNG fuelled ships

5) Low pressure - The industry standardwith 4s gas engines: MAN, Cat/MAK, Rolls Royce, MTU, Mitsubishi, ...
