This book presents and evaluates the latest techniques for measuring, evaluating and controlling NOx and CO2 emissions from marine diesel engines. The book also provides a reference guide for the effective selection and implementation of these techniques. It discusses innovative methods for acquiring and estimating the required engine-related parameters in a more accurate manner than with conventional approaches, and provides photos and illustrations of real-life examples to elucidate the book’s content. Chapters examine topics including the legislative framework of NOx emissions; marine CO2 emissions and global warming; simple and direct on-board emission measurement techniques; the determination of engine operation parameters; the estimation of NOx emissions through modeling; and NOx reduction techniques. An invaluable resource for marine and mechanical engineers, engine manufacturers and service engineers, this book is also intended for marine industry professionals and manufacturers of exhaust gas measurement equipment.

The effectiveness of selective non-catalytic (SNCR) gas-phase reaction processes for NO(x) removal from combustion products at elevated pressures was investigated in a combined experimental and modeling research program. Calculations using existing chemical models for SNCR indicate that the temperature window for NO(x) removal by SNCR widens as pressure increases, resulting in NO(x) removal at higher temperatures than at ambient pressure. The calculations also show a significant reduction in the reaction time scale with increasing pressure. These observations suggest the possibility of utilizing SNCR for reducing NO(x) emissions from marine gas turbines and Diesel engines by direct injection of a reductant species into the combustion chamber, possibly as a fuel additive. Initial experiments were carried out at atmospheric pressure to allow comparison with previous measurements in order to verify the experimental approach. Following these validation tests, experiments were conducted at elevated pressures. Results from these tests, confirm the model predictions that the SNCR window for NO(x) removal widens as the pressure increases. In addition, a project was initiated, to develop compact, robust, solid-state microsensors for pollutant species for use in control systems for reduction of pollutant emissions. The sensor concept is based on integrated circuit fabrication technology that allows the integration of a metal-oxide sensor with associated electronic circuitry on a single chip. Initial efforts focused on development of a sensor for NO(x).
