Exhaust gas cleaning system

Keep burning HSFO. Meet MARPOL Annex VI.

The ZEME scrubber removes sulphur oxides (SOx) from the exhaust gas, so vessels can keep using high-sulphur fuel oil while meeting IMO MARPOL Annex VI. The system supports several operating modes, chosen to suit trading routes and port restrictions.

  • IMO 2020
  • MARPOL Annex VI
  • HSFO
  • Newbuilding
  • Retrofit
Configurations

Choose the loop for the way you trade.

Both systems are available for newbuildings and retrofits.

Hybrid loop

Open-loop or closed-loop operation, switched as the vessel trades.

  • Ideal for vessels trading globally
  • Flexible compliance with regional regulations

Open loop

A simple, cost-effective design for open-sea trading.

  • Suitable for vessels mainly on open seas
  • Lower capital investment
  • Simple operation
Engineering design

Two tower designs, both built for 20+ years.

Pick the tower to suit the installation budget, the vessel and the crew’s maintenance routine.
