WinGD, a Swiss marine power company, has introduced the emissions reduction technology to be installed without impact on engine footprint.
The on-engine iCER is the first X-DF2.0 technology introduced by WinGD to further boost the emissions performance and efficiency of the widely deployed dual-fuel X-DF two-stroke engine series.
X-DF engines running on LNG already offer a more than 20% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and a dramatic reduction in air pollution compared to fuel oil.
The addition of iCER delivers a 50% reduction of methane slip in gas mode. Combined with better fuel efficiency, this reduces total greenhouse gas emissions by up to 8% in gas mode. Running on diesel, iCER improves the emissions performance of X-DF engines by 6%.
