The initiative seeks to implement efficient technology for <strong>capturing and controlling emissions at ports<\/strong>, without relying on complex infrastructure upgrades. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Port carbon sequestration planning and development<\/h2>\n\n<p>The core technology of the project is based on the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/stax-engineering-and-emission-capture\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"181969\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">emission capture barge<\/a><\/strong> from <em>STAX Engineering<\/em>, which removes up to 99 % of <strong>suspended particulate matter<\/strong> and 95 % of nitrogen oxides<em>(NOx<\/em>) generated by docked ships. This floating platform will be combined with startup <strong>Seabound<\/strong>&#8216;s CO\u2082 capture system, which can store up to 95 % of the carbon dioxide emitted, plus 90 % of the sulfur. <\/p>\n\n<p>The <em>PortZero<\/em> consortium, comprising <strong>STAX Engineering<\/strong>, <strong>Seabound<\/strong>, <strong>Associated British Ports<\/strong><em>(ABP<\/em>) and <strong>Lomar Shipping<\/strong>, aims to demonstrate that it is possible to reduce emissions in ports without costly modernization or reliance on shore-side energy.  <\/p>\n\n<p>The grant awarded is part of the sixth round of the<strong> Clean Maritime Demonstration Competition<\/strong><em>(CMDC6<\/em>), funded by the <strong>UK SHORE programme<\/strong> and implemented by <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/green-marine-uk-and-the-ctv-retrofitting\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"176108\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Innovate UK<\/a><\/strong>. This initiative has allocated more than \u00a330 million to projects targeting clean maritime technology and smart transportation, and seeks viable solutions that can be implemented without delay. <\/p>\n\n<p>With more than 25,000 hours of operation and more than 2,000 vessels treated, STAX Engineering has established itself as a strategic player in the control of maritime emissions. The implementation of its system alongside <strong>Seabound&#8217; <\/strong>s allows a ready-to-replicate alternative in other European ports, responding to demanding EU environmental regulations without the need for new infrastructure. <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Source and photo: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.staxengineering.com\/stax-hub\/stax-engineering-builds-uk-momentum\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">STAX Engineering<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The pilot program will take place in the Port of Southampton and will use vessels operated by Lomar Shipping.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8404,"featured_media":289789,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"footnotes":""},"categoria_noticias":[13026,13048],"etiqueta_noticias":[],"class_list":["post-290662","noticias","type-noticias","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","categoria_noticias-energy","categoria_noticias-maritime"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/290662","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/noticias"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8404"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=290662"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/290662\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/289789"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=290662"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"categoria_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categoria_noticias?post=290662"},{"taxonomy":"etiqueta_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/etiqueta_noticias?post=290662"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
