Exhaust Gas Cleaning Systems (Scrubbers)

OVERALL AIM

A Training Course designed for Engineer Officers who are to be recruited on ships fitted with a Exhaust gas cleaning systems . The focus will be on PureSox (Alfa Laval) and PaSox (Panasia) . The overall aim of the course is to increase the awareness of the participants to the exhaust gas cleaning systems and key components.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

To help the participating Officers understand:

  • the combination of jet and absorber of the exhaust gas cleaning .
  • the importance of exhaust gas analyzer , inlet water and effluent water analyzer.
  • the design limitations of these systems and their key components installed in the engine room.
