Study on Reducing NOx Emission from a Marine Diesel Engine

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper aimed on the effects of several technologies on engine NOx emission via simulation, an improved method to reduce engine NOx emission was obtained according the simulation results and was verified by engine test. The study uncovered that a retarded fuel injection timing would reduce engine NOx emission and make it below IMO limitation, while the penalty of fuel consumption is under tolerance of engine operator. The method adopted in this research can bring engine NOx emission under current IMO requirement, and this has been verified by engine test.
