Summary

• Green fuels will be a solution for eliminating emissions when the next generations of ships hit the water, but until then, shipowners need solutions to reduce existing fleet emissions.
• It may seem farfetched that a rotating cylinder fixed to a ship carrying hundreds of thousands of tons of cargo can make a difference, but the fuel savings have been reported to be as high as 8.2%.
• A concept known as onboard carbon capture and storage intends to build on the scrubber concept by removing CO2 from a ship’s exhaust.
