Exhaust Gas Cleaning Scrubbers, Operation Monitoring and Maintenance
The objective of this thesis project was to study operation monitoring and maintenance requirements of exhaust gas cleaning scrubbers being used onboard merchant vessels. Aim of the study was to gather information and present it in a way that engineers and other operators of exhaust gas cleaning scrubbers onboard a merchant vessel would know what they need to be monitoring and why they need to be doing that. Furthermore, the intention was to explain general maintenance routines of such installation and common indicators suggesting a need for additional maintenance. Project was conducted as a literature review by searching for information from books and internet sources. Scrubbers are new technology on marine applications even though they have been used on land-based facilities for decades. Because of that, most of the literature used as information source is based on scrubbers used on coal and fuel burning power plants on land. Regardless of the operating environment, the technology and the scrubbing process are the same, only difference being the regulatory requirements, which this study investigated also, since they have a major impact on operating, monitoring and maintaining the scrubber installation. There are several manufacturers on the scrubber market, all with their unique technological construction. Therefore, it was not possible to give detailed instructions for maintenance or operation monitoring. Instead, this study gives general overview of common procedures associated with the scrubbers. The study also showed that the technology of the scrubber installation is not complicated once the operator understands the working principle and the construction of the unit. Since compliance with the upcoming air pollution restrictions will be strictly regulated, operators should familiarize themselves thoroughly with the operating requirements and the maintenance routines of the scrubber installation to avoid any unnecessary air pollution, which could even lead to sanctions from the administrating parties.
