The IMO (International Maritime Organization) has mandated the restriction of SOx emissions to 0.5 % for all international sailing vessels since January 2020. And, a number of countries have designated emission control areas for stricter environmental regulations. Three representative methods have been suggested to cope with these regulations; using low-sulphur oil, installing a scrubber, or using LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) as fuel. In this paper, economic analysis was performed by comparing the method of installing a scrubber with the method of using low-sulphur oil without installing additional equipment. We suggested plausible layouts and compared the pros and cons of dif erent scrubber types for retrofitting. We selected an international sailing ship as the target vessel and estimated payback time and benefits based on navigation route, fuel consumption, and installation and operation costs. Two case of oil prices were analyzed considering the uncertainty of fuel oil price fluctuation. We found that the expected payback time of investment varies from 1 year to 3.5 years depending on the operation ratio of emission control areas and the fuel oil price change.

The Recovery facility, the scrubber is a collection device that injects liquid into the gas with the suspended particles using a spray nozzle. The liquid used is generally water. For the development of the design technology of a high efficiency scrubber, the spray characteristics according to the variation of the scrubber nozzle swirl vane was studied.

본 연구는 중 소형 선박의 배가스에 포함되어 있는 황산화물 및 질소산화물을 처리하기 위한 습식 스크러버의 처리효율에 관한 내용이다. 실험은 질소산화물 기술문서($NO_X$ Technical Code)의 E3 모드에 준해서 진행하였다. 엔진에서 황산화물을 배출하기 위해서, 연료로 사용되는 경유에 ditertiarybutyldusulfide를 혼합하여 황 함유량을 높인 연료로 실험을 진행하였다. 배가스 내의 질소산화물의 대부분을 차지하는 NO가스는 $NO_2$로 산화시켜 습식 스크러버로 흡수하였으며, 황산화물인 $SO_2$는 세정액에 잘 흡수되어 100% 처리효율을 확인하였다.

The effects of recirculated exhaust gas on the characteristics of ;$NO_x$ and soot emissions under a wide range of engine load have been experimentally investigated by a water-cooled, four-cylinder, indirect injection, four cycle and marine diesel engine operating at two kinds of engine speeds. The purpose of the present study is to develop the EGR control system for reducing $NO_x$ and soot emissions simultaneously in diesel engines. The EGR system is used to reduce NOx emissions, and a novel diesel soot removal apparatus with a cylinder-type scrubber for the experiment system which has 6 water injectors(A water injector is made up 144 nozzles with 1.0mm in diameter) is specially designed and manufactured to reduce the soot contents in the recirculated exhaust gas to intake system of the engines. The intake oxygen concentration obtained by the intake air flow and the oxygen concentration in the recirculated exhaust gas, and the exhaust oxygen concentration measured in exhaust manifold are used to analyse and discuss the influences of EGR on NOx and soot emissions. The experiments are performed at the fixed fuel injection timing of $15.3^{\circ}$ BTDC regardless of experimental conditions. It is found that $NO_x$ emissions decrease and soot emissions increase owing to the drop of intake oxygen concentration and exhaust oxygen concentration as EGR rate rises. Also, one can conclude that it is sufficient for the scrubber EGR system with a novel diesel soot removal apparatus to reduce $NO_x$ emissions, but not to reduce soot emissions.

본 연구에서는 강화되는 황산화물 및 입자상물질의 배출규제를 만족시키기 위한 후처리장치인 스크러버(scrubber)에 대한 수치해석적 연구를 수행하였다. 먼저 수치 해석을 통하여 기존 스크러버의 문제점을 파악하고, 이러한 문제점들을 개선할 수 있는 새로운 형태의 와류형 스크러버를 설계하여 분석하였다. 그 결과 와류형 스크러버에서 배기가스는 하부에서 와류를 형성하고 그 중 일부는 바닥면을 통과하여 가이드 베인을 따라 배출되는데, 이 때 수직 방향의 압력구배는 크지 않으나 배플의 내 외부에는 압력차가 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 배기가스 유선의 형태를 확인한 결과, 물이 분사되지 않는 경우에는 물이 분사되는 경우에 비해 가이드 베인을 따라 출구까지 일정하게 유동하였으며, 유동의 형태에 가이드 베인과 노즐의 배열 및 수압 등이 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 와류형 스크러버의 경우 입 출구의 차압이 기존의 스크러버 대비 절반 이하로서 기관의 배압에 미치는 영향이 훨씬 적은 것으로 나타났다.

The effects of recirculated exhaust gas on the characteristics of NOx and soot emissions under a wide range of engine loads were experimentally investigated by using a four-cycle, four-cylinder, sw irl chamber type, water-cooled diesel engine operating at three engine speeds. The purpose of this study was to develop the EGR-control system for reducing NOx and soot emissions simultaneously in diesel engines. The EGR system is used to reduce NOx emissions, and a novel diesel soot removal device with a cylinder-type scrubber for the experiment system was specially designed and manufactured to reduce soot contents in the recirculated exhaust gas to the intake system of the engine. The experiments were performed at the fixed fuel injection timing of 4$^{\circ}$ ATDC regardless of experimental conditions. It was found that soot emissions in exhaust gases were reduced by 20 to 70% when the scrubber was applied in the range of the experimental conditions, and that NOx emissions decreased markedly, especially at higher loads, while soot emissions increased owing to the decrease in intake and exhaust oxygen concentrations, and the increase in equivalence ratio as the EGR rate is elevated.

The pressure drop in a Venturi Scrubber is predicted using the Eulerian-Lagrangian Method, which is one of the numerical methods to solve the dispersed two-phase flow. KIVA-3V Code is modified to solve the coupled gas-liquid two-phase flow field. The liquid is assumed to be injected through the nozzles with the Rosin-Rammler drop size distribution. The computational results shows good agreement with the experimental data.

Recently, the semiconductor and display industries have tried to reduce the emissions of perfluorocompounds (PFCs) from the globally environmental regulation. Total amount of PFC emission can be calculated from the flow rate and the partial pressures of PFCs. For the precise measurement of PFC emission amount, the mass flow controlled helium gas was continuously injected into the equipment of which scrubber efficiency is being measured. The partial pressures of PFCs and helium were accurately measured using a mass spectrometer in each sample extracted from inlet and outlet of the scrubber system. The flow rates are calculated from the partial pressures of helium and also, PFC destruction and removal efficiency (DRE) of the scrubber is calculated from the partial pressure of PFC and the flow rate. Under this method, the relative expanded uncertainties of the flow rate and the partial pressures of PFCs are ± 2% (k = 2) in case the concentrations of NF3 and SF6 are as low as 100 μmol/mol.

To comply with the regulation of the reinforcing Clean Air Conservation Act, it is necessary for the semiconductor manufacturers to develop effective low-concentration acid gas abatement system to treat the flue gas. The low-concentration acid gas was found to be harder to deal with than the high-concentration one. In this study, the effect of various potential treatments such as air-assist nozzle spraying, magnetizing the scrubbing water, and adding surfactants to spraying and scrubbing water were investigate through the application of the statistical ANCOVA method, which was proved to be very useful tool when the inlet concentration of acid gas could not be controlled precisely and it affected the removal efficiency of the abatement system.

This paper was investigated to clarify the possibility of ammonia-gas removal by essential oil. First of all, the chemical analysis was performed to analyze the composition of an essential oil by GC-MS. The monoterpenes in an essential oil react with ammonia by neutralization and their reaction mechanism was elucidated. Based on their chemical neutralized reaction, the removal efficiencies of ammonia gas were studied to derive the optimal conditions in the scrubber tower such as optimal temperature and pH. The experimental result shows that the removal efficiency of ammonia gas was achieved over 80 % by the misty aerosol dispersion of scrubber tower.
