This technology improves emissions management, while offering ship operators more flexibility as well as performance. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The design and efficiency of the mtu Flex SCR system  <\/h2>\n\n<p>The <em>new mtu Flex SCR system<\/em> stands out for its ability to adapt to different spaces on board, a critical factor in boat design. Compared to its predecessor, the new generation is noticeably smaller and lighter, with space savings of up to 42% and a weight reduction of almost 40%. <\/p>\n\n<p>Optimization allows for greater installation versatility in the engine room, either horizontally or vertically. In fact, the system components can be positioned in a variety of ways, depending on the specific needs of the vessel. <\/p>\n\n<p>The <strong>mtu Flex SCR<\/strong> technology is designed for superior performance. By including <strong>selective catalytic reduction<\/strong><em>(SCR<\/em>) it reduces nitrogen oxide<em>(NOx<\/em>) emissions by 75% relative to IMO II standards. Such capability ensures that ships meet the stringent IMO Tier III required in emission control areas such as the Baltic and North Seas.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Likewise, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/rolls-royce-initiate-tests-engine-pearl-10x\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"143532\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rolls-Royce<\/a><\/strong> has improved the durability of the system&#8217;s ceramic substrate, increasing its service life to 18,000 operating hours, which translates into a 15% reduction in total life-cycle costs.<\/p>\n\n<p>This launch of this system underlines Rolls-Royce&#8217;s strategy to support its customers with sustainable solutions. Denise Kurtulus, senior vice president of Global Marine at Rolls-Royce Power Systems, said the system better suits customers&#8217; needs and provides them with significant benefits when navigating in emission-controlled areas.   <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Source and photo: <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1PhqC5E6PJ3wIjmVLbV949WD2jJIA15fn\/edit.\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1PhqC5E6PJ3wIjmVLbV949WD2jJIA15fn\/edit.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rolls-Royce<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The company plans to implement this technology gradually in other of its mtu engines, extending the impact of its innovation in the decarbonization of shipping.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8404,"featured_media":297556,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","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-297567","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\/297567","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=297567"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/297567\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/297556"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=297567"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"categoria_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categoria_noticias?post=297567"},{"taxonomy":"etiqueta_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/etiqueta_noticias?post=297567"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
