Products for PM Reduction in Shipping

The maritime sector is actively working towards achieving climate and air quality goals. To reach climate neutrality, one of the aspects that need addressing is the emission of particulate matter (PM). In response, for instance, the European Union (EU) has implemented Stage V emission standards for inland waterway vessels to reduce PM emissions and has set strict limits on particulate number (PN). While the International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) Tier III emission standards primarily focus on nitrogen oxides (NOx) for marine engines, there is a growing trend within seagoing shipping to reduce PM emissions to Stage V levels, even without legal obligation. Explore products for PM reduction in shipping.

Diesel Particulate Filter

A Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), also known as a soot filter, reduces the emission of particulate matter (PM) and particulate number (PN) by up to 99%. This particulate filter fully complies with the stringent requirements of European Stage V, making it an environmentally friendly alternative, especially for existing non-standardized (pre-CCR), CCR-1, or CCR-2 ship engines. Designed and manufactured in Germany using high-quality materials, the housing features a carefully engineered design that enables easy maintenance. Each soot filter is customized and suitable for ships with engine power ranging from 19 to 10,000 kW.
