11577811 · 2023-02-14 · ·

A method of controlling an adjustable exhaust system for a marine engine includes receiving a vessel location of a marine vessel having an adjustable exhaust system and identifying a noise constraint based on the vessel location. A current exhaust mode of the adjustable exhaust system is identified. A determination is then made regarding whether the exhaust system is exceeding the noise constraint based on the current exhaust mode. If the noise constraint is exceeded, an instruction is generated to adjust the adjustable exhaust system to comply with the noise constraint.

Movable emission control system for auxiliary diesel engines

A mobile emissions control system is provided for diesel engines operated on ocean-going ships at-berth. The emissions control system comprises two essential elements: an emissions capturing system and an emissions control system. The emissions control system may be mounted on a towable chassis or mounted on a barge, allowing it to be placed alongside ocean-going ships at-berth. The emission capturing system captures exhaust from a ship's diesel engine and conducts it into the emissions control system, which cleans the exhaust and then passes clean air into the atmosphere through an exhaust outlet.

Exhaust Pipe Coupling
20220371716 · 2022-11-24 ·

An oceangoing vessel exhaust pipe coupling used to temporarily couple to an oceangoing vessel exhaust pipe. Installation and removal of the coupling only requires a simple mechanism with three translational degrees of freedom and one rotational degree of freedom, thereby enabling remote coupling. The coupling adapts to a wide array of exhaust pipe shapes and sizes. This is accomplished by a unique shape that allows stable and balanced resting position on top of an exhaust pipe as well as a two-chamber configuration, wherein the two chambers are separated by a permeable partition. Furthermore, the unique shapes of the chambers deflect the exhaust gas stream towards the outlet of the coupling, regardless of exhaust pipe style, thereby increasing capture efficiency and extending the life of an attached fabric flexible hose.

Systems and methods for gas disposal

A method for controlling the saturation level of gas in a liquid discharge includes obtaining temperature and pressure measurements of a solvent in a mixing vessel and obtaining a pressure measurement of a source feedstock in a feedstock tank, correlating the temperature and pressure measurements of the solvent to baseline data to generate a theoretical uptake rate for the source feedstock into the solvent and a theoretical flow rate of the source feedstock into the mixing vessel, and determining a required opening setting for a feedstock valve in the feedstock input line in order to achieve a desired liquid displacement in the mixing vessel. The method includes determining an uptake duration and achieving an uptake displacement equivalent to the reverse of the desired liquid displacement. The method includes generating a valve operating control law for how the feedstock valve should function in a cycle.

A reaction device of a marine SCR system comprises a conveying unit (110), a reaction chamber (120), at least one catalyst module (130), and an air homogenization chamber (140), wherein, the conveying unit (110) includes an input pipeline (111) and an output pipeline (112) sleeved outside the input pipeline (111). One end of the reaction chamber (120) is connected to the conveying unit (110). The reaction chamber (120) comprises an inner cylinder (121) and an outer cylinder (122) sleeved outside the inner cylinder (121), the inner cylinder (121) is in communication with the input pipeline (111), and the outer cylinder (122) is in communication with the output pipeline (112). The catalyst module (130) is provided between the inner cylinder (121) and the outer cylinder (122). The air homogenization chamber (140) is connected to the other end of the reaction chamber (120) and is in communication with both the inner cylinder (121) and the outer cylinder (122). With the reaction device of the marine SCR system whereby the outer cylinder is sleeved outside the inner cylinder, flue gas from the inner cylinder is turned by the air homogenization chamber and then flows back into the outer cylinder. This can not only substantially reduce the size of the reaction device to improve the integration of the SCR system, but also allow the flue gas to turn in the air homogenization chamber and then flow back, so that the flue gas and a reducing agent can be fully mixed in the air homogenization chamber to improve the catalytic reaction efficiency.
