An exhaust gas purification structure of an outboard motor includes an exhaust gas pipe that has an exhaust gas passage through which exhaust gas of an engine can flow; and a catalyst that is provided in the exhaust gas passage and purifies the exhaust gas by allowing the exhaust gas to pass through the inside thereof. The exhaust gas pipe includes a coolant flow passage allowing a coolant that cools the exhaust gas to flow therethrough. An exhaust gas bypass passage allowing the exhaust gas to flow without passing through the catalyst is formed between the catalyst and an inner surface of the exhaust gas pipe forming the exhaust gas passage.

A gas purification apparatus includes: a housing to which a gas is introduced; a filter portion for removing an impure substance in the gas from the gas, the filter portion being disposed inside the housing; and a gas purification agent for removing a removal target substance in the gas from the gas, the gas purification agent being disposed, inside the housing, on the filter portion or in a space at a downstream side of the filter portion with respect to a flow of the gas.

Oil console equipment includes: a lubrication oil tank in which a lubrication oil is stored; a lubrication oil supply line which is connected to the lubrication oil tank and through which a liquid lubrication oil stored in the lubrication oil tank is supplied to a bearing supporting a rotor; a first cooler which is provided in the lubrication oil supply line and cools the liquid lubrication oil supplied to the bearing; a lubrication oil recovery line which is connected to the lubrication oil tank and through which the lubrication oil recovered from the bearing is introduced into the lubrication oil tank; a first atmosphere discharge pipe which is connected to the lubrication oil tank and through which a lubrication oil mist which exists in a gas phase in the lubrication oil tank and is a misted lubrication oil and a first exhaust gas containing a gas are introduced out.

A marine engine assembly is provided for propelling a marine vessel. The marine engine assembly includes an internal combustion engine configured to drive a propulsion arrangement, a turbocharger comprising a turbine portion having a turbine outlet, and a turbocharger exhaust conduit coupled to the turbine outlet. The turbocharger exhaust conduit acts as a primary support to the turbocharger within the marine engine assembly.

Provided is an exhaust gas treatment apparatus for ships including: a reaction tower supplied with exhaust gas containing particle matter and with liquid for treating the exhaust gas and configured to discharge exhausted liquid obtained by treating the exhaust gas; and a heating unit configured to heat discharged material containing the exhausted liquid to evaporate at least a part of moisture contained in the discharged material. The apparatus may further include a first storage unit configured to store first discharged material containing the particle matter removed from the exhausted liquid and a part of the exhausted liquid. The heating unit may heat the first storage unit. The apparatus may further include a second storage unit configured to store second discharged material containing the exhausted liquid from which at least a part of the particle matter has been removed. The heating unit may heat the second storage unit.

A method filtering exhaust gas may include attaching an exhaust tube to an engine at an exhaust gas inlet of the exhaust tube. The method may also include filling an outer tube of the exhaust tube with a liquid. The method may further include filtering the exhaust gas by passing the exhaust gas through an inner gas distributor disposed inside the outer tube, and through a plurality of holes of the inner gas distributor into the liquid of the outer tube. In addition, the method may include expelling filtered exhaust gas through an exhaust gas outlet of the exhaust tube.

A method and modular desulfurization-decarbonization apparatus for removing contaminants from exhaust gas is described. The apparatus comprises discrete modular units with distinct functions. The modular units may be housed in standard shipping containers and installed on cargo ships. The modules can be removed and replaced while docking with minimal disruption to ship and port operations.

A system includes an engine defining a water jacket fluidly coupled to a heat exchanger. An exhaust manifold defines an exhaust manifold cooling passage. A pump is fluidly coupled to the water jacket, and to each of the heat exchanger and the exhaust manifold cooling passage. An engine cooling circuit includes the water jacket, the heat exchanger, and the pump. An exhaust cooling circuit is selectively fluidly coupled to the engine cooling circuit. The exhaust cooling circuit includes the water jacket, the exhaust manifold cooling passage, and the pump. A control valve includes an inlet fluidly coupled to a first portion of the water jacket. A first outlet is fluidly coupled to a second portion of the water jacket. A second outlet is fluidly coupled to the exhaust cooling circuit. The control valve is structured to selectively control flow of coolant fluid through the second outlet.

A method for the removal of at least one contaminant from an aqueous liquor or a gas, comprising: preparing a solution or slurry of a solid alkali reagent by supplying a solid alkali reagent into a pre-wetting chamber via a feed pipe; supplying a liquid via two or more liquid sidestreams, each through a liquid inlet positioned on a side wall of the chamber to allow the liquid sidestreams to wash an internal wall of a frusto-conical section of the chamber and flow, preferably tangentially onto the internal wall in a downward spiraling manner thereby forming a vortex, towards a fluid outlet of the chamber and to further wet the solid alkali reagent with the supplied liquid thereby forming a pre-wetted reagent; and flowing a stream though a conduit, thereby creating a suction by the eductor to draw the pre-wetted reagent out of the chamber fluid outlet and mixing it with the stream to form a slurry or solution; and directing the slurry or solution exiting the eductor to an aqueous liquor or gas treatment unit, removing at least a portion of the contaminant from the aqueous liquor or gas in the treatment unit.
