Exhaust gas cleaning
Respectez les limites SOx sans recours à un carburant à faible teneur en soufre plus coûteux : le scrubber PureSOx d'Alfa Laval lave jusqu'à 98% des oxydes de soufre rejetés par les gaz de combustion de navires (SOx) et réduit la pollution atmosphérique en conformité avec la réglementation de l'OMI.
Désulfuration des fumées de navire
- Élimination de plus de 98 % des SOx des gaz d'échappement
- Jusqu'à 80 % de réduction des matières particulaires (PM)
- Chaque système installé est opérationnel et conforme aux normes
- Des performances éprouvées et des années d'expérience d'exploitation en mer
A l'avant-garde des technologies de traitement de fumées de navire
Alfa Laval a ouvert la voie en matière de solutions lavage des gaz de combustion de l'industrie maritime pour respecter les émissions de SOx selon la réglementation. Ainsi les épurateurs humides font partie des systèmes de gaz inertes Alfa Laval Smit depuis plus de 50 ans.
Notre tout premier système de traitement des fumées PureSOx était un système hybride, alliant l'économie d'un épurateur en circuit ouvert à la sécurité à l'épreuve du temps d'un laveur en circuit fermé.
Alors que l'épuration des gaz d'échappement se développe, notre leadership se poursuit. Notre expérience et nos connaissances font de nous un partenaire idéal pour la recherche sur la capture du carbone et plus encore.
Why turn to Alfa Laval for exhaust gas cleaning?
Alfa Laval PureSOx in action
Curious to see how a retrofit of a scrubber takes place? Watch our film of the retrofit on board the M/V Valentine to see how it's done.
For almost 15 years, Alfa Laval has helped shipowners meet SOx regulations and water discharge limits – even as the rules grow more stringent. Because we strive for future-proof solutions, we have always offered closed-loop and hybrid scrubber options in addition to open-loop scrubber systems.
We continue to improve our solutions, adding innovative features and new scrubber services. Together with our deep knowledge support, these ensure easy compliance with the latest exhaust gas cleaning regulations.

Taking marine exhaust gas cleaning into the future
As fuels and emissions change, so will exhaust gas cleaning. What is mainly associated with marine scrubbers and SOx today will soon involve more technologies and targets, including CO2.
Alfa Laval is investing heavily in exhaust gas cleaning R&D, for example at the Alfa Laval Test & Training Centre. But we are also working with others. One such effort is project ReMarCCAbLE, where we are a technology partner in the world-first initiative to demonstrate onboard carbon capture (OCC) at scale.
Three ways to comply
Install a SOx scrubber
+ Allows continued use of economical HFO
- Payback time depends on fuel price delta (HFO vs low-sulphur)
Use low-sulphur fuel
+ Low investment cost
- Higher long-term costs than using HFO with a scrubber
- Uncertain fuel price and availability
Switch to LNG
+ Always in SOx compliance
- High investment cost
- Complicated retrofitting
- Limited infrastructure and uncertain fuel price
Return on scrubber investment
Investing in a scrubber system like PureSOx provides a cost advantage over shipowners who choose low-sulphur fuels to comply with MARPOL Annex VI. The difference in fuel price determines payback time and, subsequently, profit.
