FINNISH pulp and paper company Valmet is introducing a fully automatic water treatment solution for the marine scrubber system and exhaust gas recirculation system, according to a Valmet Oyj's trade press release.
The new solution follows the UN's International Maritime Organisation (IMO) guidelines for the marine business.
The fully automatic water treatment solution is part of Valmet's continuous effort towards sustainable ship transport. Valmet was already the first supplier to introduce a hybrid scrubber to the market.
The new system consists of four different modules that can easily fit throughout different vessel layouts. The new low chemical consumption will bring savings and allow minimal sludge production.
'With the help of Valmet DNA automation system, the water treatment solution ensures flexibility and reliability in optimising the water treatment process,' said Valmet product sales manager Lishan Wu.
Valmet senior manager Anssi Makela declared the company's expertise from other land-based industries helped develop their vessels.
'Our expertise from other land-based industries and decades of development work have led us to this innovative solution for vessels. Our target is to support our customers in their business in a more sustainable way, as well as make it possible for them to conduct responsible business, emissions controlled. At the moment, it is extremely important to support maritime businesses towards lower emissions. This technology contributes clearly to these aims,' said Mr Makela.
