Don't waste a drop - how frugal LNG engines are cracking emissions limits

摘要

A marvel of low-emission technology, the first of MTU's LNG-fuelled, high-speed eight-cylinder engines will be installed in late 2019 on a new ferry plying Lake Constance on the Rhine, following thousands of punishing hours on the test stand. One of the few inland passenger vessels in Europe to be powered by a pure gas engine, the ferry was configured for a propulsion system suitable for a pristine environment. And by any measure, MTU has delivered, with one of the cleanest-burning engines on the market.
