Engine rooms need re-design says HHI

摘要

Meeting the challenges set by regulators is never easy, but in the case of nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions meeting the new rules could pose a particular challenge as already congested engine rooms need more equipment to meet the standards. Hyundai Heavy Industries is working on a solution.rnCrowded engine rooms are becoming a problem to design and build said JT Kim, vice president of Hyundai Heavy Industries' (HHI) Engine and Machinery Division. He believes that owners and designers need to completely re-design the compartments just to accommodate all the new equipment that is required to meet environmental legislation.rnMr Kim explains that the International Maritime Organization's (IMO) NOx emission controls have so far been relatively straight forward.
