The exhaust gas of marine diesel engine contains a lot of NOx, SOx and PM, that is, it contributes to global warming and air pollution, and the IMO has regulated the NOx emissions for the vessels built after January 1st, 2000.
KHI has the experience of research about DeNOx methods, for example, timing retard, EGR, fuel-water emulsion, natural gas and methanol ignited with pilot fuel oil, and SCR with NH3 or HC.
This paper introduces the test results of DeNOx system for marine diesel engine by SCR with liquid hydrocarbon extracted from marine diesel oil, which has the advantage in cost, treatment and supply compared with troublesome NH3 system.
