Abstract:
The presentation addresses the challenges and opportunities of decarbonizing maritime shipping. It touches on different pathways (fuels, exhaust, efficiency) with a focus on fuels in particular.
Different technical realization options for various fuel alternatives will be shown, along their individual challenges and benefits, implications for vessels and applicability.
Additionally, the exhaust pathway of GHG emissions will be detailed, putting some focus especially on managing CH4 emissions in shipping, the basic mechanisms and options to reduce their impact.
