Hamworthy lauds its scrubbers

摘要

Hamworthy's growing role as a systems integrator able to offer ship-wide engineering solutions is adding a new dimension to its ability to meet and exceed new and coming environmental regulations.rnIn an effort to meet the requirements of upcoming regulations the company has sought to acquire firms that have taken significant steps towards achieving cleaner shipping. Last year, for example, Hamworthy acquired Krystallon, the company responsible for ensuring that exhaust gas scrubbing was included as an alternative to distillates to meet sulphur emissions limits set by the European Union (EU) and the International Maritime Organization (IMO).
