新加坡船舶管理公司Synergy Marine和美国充电电池开发商Alsym Energy合作，为船舶开发低成本、不易燃的船用充电电池。这些新型电池每年将为船舶提供1GW的电能，满足其进出港及停泊期间的能源需求，并支持船舶在海上航行时的调峰应用。使用不易燃的充电电池能够降低船员、货物的安全风险，同时起到节约船队保险成本的作用。

Singapore-based ship manager Synergy Marine and the US developer of next-generation rechargeable batteries Alsym Energy have teamed up to develop low-cost, non-flammable rechargeable batteries for shipping vessels. Alsym will provide 1 GW of batteries which may be used to propel cargo ships and tankers as they enter and leave port, power berthed ships, and support peak shaving applications at sea.These batteries can help reduce risks to crew and cargo, as well as lower insurance costs for fleet managers and shippers, the company claims. 

总部位于佛罗里达的航运公司World Direct Shipping采用了CR Ocean Engineering公司的技术方案，为旗下的一艘集装箱船进行废气洗涤器改造。World Direct Shipping希望在满足IMO/MARPOL排放要求的前提下，继续使用重质燃油(HFO)作为动力。据估计，CROE的多流洗涤器每天可以从主、辅机排放的废气中去除约5吨的二氧化硫排放物，同时还能够清除废气中的较大颗粒物，使该船减排效果达到甚至优于使用极低硫燃料油(VLSFO)和船用轻柴油(MGO)等低硫燃料的水平。

Florida-based shipping company World Direct Shipping has selected marine exhaust emissions technology manufacturer CR Ocean Engineering (CROE) as the preferred scrubbing system supplier for its container ship Queen B III. World Direct Shipping aims to continue using heavy fuel oil (HFO) while meeting the IMO/MARPOL regulations and safeguarding the environment. It is estimated that CROE’s multistream scrubber will remove about five tons of SO2 emissions per day from the combined exhaust from the main engine plus three auxiliary engines. It also reduce the larger airborne particles and, in conjunction with HFO, have a carbon footprint that is significantly smaller than when using low sulfur fuels such.
