Dynamic Modelling of A Rolling Piston Compressor Including A Packed-Bed Drying System

To produce an alternative fuel like Methanol from scratch, on a miniature scale- the reactants CO2 and H2O are sourced locally. Zero Emission Fuels B.V. (ZEF) does this by collecting carbon dioxide from the air, via carbon capture techniques and compressing it to high pressure of 55bars. As a consequence of humidity inside the captured CO2,...

Dynamic Modelling of a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell System: Integration of 1-D SOFC Dynamic Model with the Balance of Plant components

The constant pressure on the maritime sector to reduce Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions has led the shipping industry to search for alternatives, such as zero-emissions propulsion systems, which would allow meeting the 2050 target imposed by International Maritime Organization (IMO) regulation. Fuel cells have demonstrated to substantially...

Closed loop wet scrubber system for maritime application: Dynamic modelling and system integration

The maritime sector is important for the facilitation and growth of global trade. Currently, about 90% of the goods are transported by ships and as a result, the number of ships has risen, increasing the emissions related to shipping. Pollution caused by exhaust gas, especially the sulphur oxide emission, from marine diesel engines has become a...

Selective Catalytic Reduction for Marine Applications: Dynamic Modelling and System Integration

Environmental regulations are continuously raising the bar towards more advanced diesel engine designs ca- pable of minimizing the emissions of polluting substances. The recent IMO Tier III legislation, entered into force in 2016, is forcing the engine manufacturers to meet a NOx reduction of more than 70% from Tier II for all the ships sailing...
