Martek Marine wins large Korean orders

MariNOx Evolution is a leading ship emissions system designed to enable simple and automated Marine Equipment Directive (MED) certified compliance with the MEPC 177(58) NOx Technical Code 2008, as well as MARPOL Annex VI and MEPC 103(49). It monitors SOx, NOx, CO2, CH4, NO2, THC, H2S, Benzene and N20 levels.

A major advantage of the system is that all levels are monitored via a single sample line without the need to install a complex dilution arrangement requiring dry air supplies at each engine.

Paul Luen, managing director, Martek Marine, said: “Yards are building more fuel efficient and less polluting ships and so are turning to our world-class solution to help them achieve this. We have a team of local experienced Korean MariNOx engineers who are able to install and commission MariNOx Evolution systems and have developed a particularly close working relationship with the Korean yards.”

The seven orders are said to be worth in the region of about $1m.
