An Exhaust Gas Cleaning System (EGCS), often referred to as scrubbers, is a device installed onboard marine vessels that literally “scrubs” harmful sulphur oxides from exhaust gases.
The technology is commonly installed on ships seeking compliance options in the face of tighter emissions regulations. Scrubbers have been adopted for compliance within Emission Control Areas near coastlines. They are also being installed to comply with the International Maritime Organization’s global sulphur cap from 1st January 2020.
During this course, you will be introduced to Exhaust Gas Cleaning Systems (EGCS), or scrubbers, with an insight into how they work, the types of scrubbers and the pros and cons of installation. You will explore the associated legislation, the factors influencing the choice of scrubbers, and the various technologies. You will also gain an understanding of certification and the associated monitoring requirements.
