IMO Secretary-General Kitack Lim reiterated his request to countries

that have not already done so, to ratify the BWM Convention as soon

as possible in order to establish a certain date for entry into force,

which will facilitate the work to make any necessary amendments

to the BWM convention

EGCS - Certification

MEPC.259(68) - 2015 Guidelines for exhhaust gas cleaning systems

Scheme A: is a Type Approval

Requires the EGCS to grant the Certified Value of abatement

in the whole allowable range of operating parameters:

• % Sulphur in fuel

• Ehaust gas mass flow rate

• Power of the connected oil combustion unit

• Washwater flow rate

• Exhaust temperature

• Exhaust gas pressure

• Washwater salinity

Requires daily spot checks of SO2/CO2 ratio

Scheme B: continuos measurement &

recording

Requires continuos SO2 / CO2 ratio measure-ment & recording in the

exhaust gas at the Scrubber outlet.

The certification mainly concerns

• Analyzers

• Data recording and processing

The scrubber itself is seen as a «black box»

Requires daily spot checks of ECGS operational parameters

EGCS - Certification

Water discharged into the sea following the scrubbing process is to be

monitored and recorded.

Sensor for monitoring:

• turbidity,

• pH (acidity),

• Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH) and

• nitrate concentration

Residual sludge generated by the cleaning process needs to be delivered

ashore to adequate reception facilities, not discharged to the sea nor

incinerated on board.

EGCS Discharge water pH

pH > 6.5 at 4m from the discharge

point, with the ship stationary

EGCS – EU Sulphur Dir

Article 3a

Maximum sulphur content in marine fuel

Member States shall ensure that marine fuels are not used within their territory if

their sulphur content exceeds 3,50 % by mass, except for fuels supplied to ships

using emission abatement methods subject to Article 4c operating in closed mode.

EGCS – DL 112/2014

Marine fuel

S >3,5 %

Exception for closed type SCRUBBERs

Ship using not closed type

SCRUBBERs

Marine fuel S up to 3,5 %

EGCS – DL 112/2014

6-bis. Fermi restando i limiti di tenore di zolfo previsti ai commi 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 e 8, e'

vietato, nelle aree soggette alla giurisdizione nazionale, l'utilizzo di combustibili

per uso marittimo con un tenore di zolfo superiore al 3,50%.

Tali limiti non si applicano ai combustibili destinati alle navi che utilizzano metodi

di riduzione delle emissioni basati su sistemi a circuito chiuso.

Per sistema a circuito chiuso si intende un sistema operante mediante ricircolo

della soluzione utilizzata senza che vi sia rilascio all'esterno della stessa o di

eventuali solidi ivi contenuti, salvo nelle fasi di manutenzione o di raccolta e

smaltimento a terra dei residui costituiti da fanghi.

... Omississ ...

Per i combustibili per uso marittimo destinati alle navi che utilizzano metodi di

riduzione delle emissioni non basati su sistemi a circuito chiuso si applica, nelle

aree soggette alla giurisdizione nazionale, un limite relativo al tenore di zolfo pari

al 3,50%.
