Background Ship owners are faced with requirements relating to fuel sulphur content in ECAs (Emission Control Areas) 2010: 1% sulphur (max) 2015: 0.1% sulphur (max) Two mitigation strategies are being exploited: Lowering of the sulphurcontent in fuel Emission reducing technologies (such as scrubbers)
Background and objective Effective enforcement calls for a simple and robust control method Not commercial avaliable today or expensive Today the fuel of the ships is controlled by: - random checks of bunker delivery notes - fuel logs - occasional fuel sample analyses in harbors Project objective: Development of method(s) for fast determination of sulfur content in fuel preferable by use of low-cost sensors Proof-of-concept at the Great Belt Bridge
Idea Prime focus: Monitoring of ship emissions when passing the Great Belt Bridge (proof of concept) Majority of traffic passing DK either passes the Great Belt or Øresund Monitoring can provide a fast screening of ships Monitoring of SO2, CO2, particles,
Idea SO2/CO2 can be correlated with S-content in fuel. Accepted method for calculating sulphur equivalents in exhaust gas
Idea Equipment to be mounted at the eastern bridge between the pylons Exact location not yet defined Aim for two measurement campaigns during summer/autumn 2014 Fuel samples when passing the bridge Correlation with AIS data from VTS Storebælt, road traffic, wind,

Overvejelser Hvilke mekanismer skal sættes i gang hvis et potentielt noncompliant skib detekteres? Alarm til relevant myndighed? Politi? Hvem er driveren for at få systemet implementeret? Hvem køber systemet? I dag økonomisk incitament for rederier til ikke at følge SECA reguleringen, forstærkes fra 2015. Efter vores bedste overbevisning ingen reel overvågning / sanktioner i dag
