Diesel Ex- haust Cleaning System (DECS), based on DCL International?s Marine-X system, removes soot and particulate matter as it is emitted from engines. Exhaust gas is routed through a catalytically coated ceramic lter, trap- ping soot and particulates. DECS uses a passive regenera- tion process which does not require additional equipment, controls or regeneration time. The DECS ltration process reduces carbon monoxide by up to 98% and diesel hydro- carbons by up to 95%. Soot burns away and transforms into harmless CO2. It is CARB Level 3 veri ed and NO2 compliant. www.northern-lights.com Thorn-D Antifouling-Þ lm Applied to Crew Vessel Micanti BV has applied its patented non-toxic anti- fouling on a crew vessel in Dubai. Thorn-D is an adhe- sive foil with bers that cre- ates a textured surface. Instead of killing marine growth, the textured foil is preventing it from attaching itself to the hull of a ship. Thorn-D is set to replace the generally used chemical coatings on hulls of ships. Thorn D is an easy-to- apply self adhesive foil physical barrier to fouling and has an expected lifetime of at least 5 years. The physical nature of the product guarantees environmental friendliness. www.micanti.com PPGÕs Antifouling for Short Sea, Coastal Shipping PPG Protective and Marine Coatings has launched Sigma Eco- eet 690, designed to deliver self- polishing antifouling for extreme and aggressive fouling conditions.
