“K” LINE Begins Participating in Joint Study on Liquefied CO2 Marine Transportation for Carbon Dioxide Capture and Storage
Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha, Ltd. (“K” LINE) has reached an agreement with TOKYO GAS CO., LTD. (“Tokyo Gas”) regarding a joint study of liquefied carbon dioxide (CO2) marine transportation with a view towards achieving carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS). The Japanese government believes CCS to be one of the significant methods for achieving carbon neutrality…
NYK Participates in International Seminar on Liquefied CO2 Capture, Utilization, and Storage High interest from Japan and abroad in quantitative assessment and issues throughout the value chain
On March 4, NYK participated in a seminar comparing the three modes of the carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) value chain. The seminar was hosted by the Global CCS Institute (GCCSI), an international think tank on CCUS, and held at the NS Toranomon Building in Tokyo. NYK Corporate Officer Tsutomu Yokoyama and Green Business…
Pioneering ship-based carbon capture (SBCC) demonstration initial results very promising
The EverLoNG SBCC prototype developed in the Netherlands by Carbotreat was installed on board the SEAPEAK ARWA, a LNG-powered carrier chartered by TotalEnergies, in September 2023. This major milestone marked the first deployment anywhere of a ‘full-chain’ on-board system comprising capture, liquefaction and storage facilities. This first testing campaign, which concluded mid-February 2024, focused on…
ERMA FIRST Awarded Approval In Principle From DNV For Onboard Carbon Capture System
ERMA FIRST, a leading sustainable maritime solutions provider, has received Approval in Principle (AiP) from DNV for its amine absorption-based Onboard Carbon Capture (OCC) system. DNV issued the AiP to ERMA FIRST following the successful completion of a technical review, risk assessment and review of the company’s feasibility study for Onboard Carbon Capture (OCC) on…
Closer European Cooperation on Carbon Capture and Storage is Good News for Ambitious Danish Companies
Denmark and four other European countries yesterday signed the Aalborg Declaration, which highlights, among other things, that Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) are essential climate tools. It marks an important step in the right direction towards creating a European market for Carbon capture, utilization, and storage. The European Commission is currently hosting a major…
Onboard Carbon capture & storage: a key solution for shipping’s complex decarbonisation challenge
For all the criticism and discussion around MEPC 80 this year, the IMO’s landmark environmental committee has given us one thing: the commitment to achieve net-zero emissions by around 2050 creates a clear sense of direction for an industry often criticised for its environmental impact. However, let us be under no illusion that reaching these…

LR Awards Approval In Principle For ERMA FIRST’s Carbon Capture & Storage System
Post combustion CCS system absorbs CO2 from a vessel’s exhaust gas that is heated to capture CO2 and then liquefied and stored cryogenically onboard. Lloyd’s Register (LR) has awarded Approval in Principle (AiP) to ERMA FIRST for its amine absorption-based Carbon Capture & Storage (CCS) system. ERMA FIRST’s CCS system uses absorption technology to mix…
Can CO2 capture and nuclear get ships to net zero?
Uncertainties over the future supply and cost of carbon-neutral fuels are compelling reasons for shipowners, ports and other stakeholders to consider all technology options for reaching net zero. DNV’s latest Maritime Forecast to 2050 includes case studies on whether on-board carbon capture and nuclear propulsion could be significant options. “In this decisive decade for shipping…
Ecospray: two Carbon Capture technologies successfully tested onboard
Ecospray, the Italian company specialized in integrated solutions for the sustainable conversion of maritime and land-based industries, announced in Athens, Greece, the finalization of its first two Carbon Capture technologies for the maritime sector. They will be available on the market as of Q1 2024 and will enable the capture of up to 80% of…
Electrolyzers, Carbon Capture and the Cost of Green Fuels, Dominate the Discussion Between ABS Chairman and CEO and Leading Economist
Reducing the cost of electrolyzers and rapid adoption of onboard carbon capture technology is going to be critical if shipping is to reach its net zero carbon emissions target. That was the message for the industry from an inspirational discussion at London International Shipping Week between leading maritime industry economist Dr. Martin Stopford and Christopher…
