Containerships - Pollution - Climate Change - how to reduce CO2 from container ships.
Container ship in the 12,000 TEU (TEU = one standard container of 20 feet) and there is currently ordered 160 of them to companies all over the world, including Maersk. But not one of them have been equipped with smoke purification systems, known as scrubbers.

7. Shippingâs emission legacy
A reality check for shipping
⢠In 2007 it was established that the maritime industry
accounted for emission of approx. 1,2 billion metric tons
of CO2 annually. This is based on the present world wide
fleet (1st quarter 2007). This is almost 100% higher than
earlier estimates.
⢠Latest figures indicates that the shipping industry will be
responsible for emitting at least 1.5 billion metric tons of
CO2 annually by 2010 and in 2015 the annual emissions
will be substantially over 2 billion ton. This is 67% more
than todayâs emission.
⢠On top of these figures the maritime industry will emit 20
million tons of SOx and 37 million tons of NOx annually.
These emissions will increase just as drastically as CO2-
emissions.
⢠There is a massive new building program underway, and
in the next 20-25 years we will have these ships on the
oceans. Should they be build without using well known The Guardian,

60.000 deathâs annually
⢠A study published in the American Chemical Society journal Environmental Science and
Technology by James Corbett (et al) in November 2007 shows, that shipping is responsible
for 60,000 premature deaths a year.
⢠For a long time there has been a perception that because ship emissions are out in the
ocean, then they doesn't really affect anyone on land, but as this study shows - this is clearly
false.
⢠The report did not take into account additional health impacts such as bronchitis and
asthma. It is also estimated the toll of premature deaths in North America, mostly on the
West Coast, as numbering 9,000 per year.
⢠The report said the 60,000 premature deathâs a year were from heart and lung-related
cancers. Corbett predicted the number could rise by 40% in the next five years because of an
increase in shipping activity.
⢠US Lawyers will not wait for long before they act. Ship owners should NOT forget that they are
under US law when in port.

60% of the worldâs bee population is dead
⢠Itâs not only humans that are dying from the
effects of pollution. 60% of the worlds bees are
already dead.
⢠Commercial beehives pollinate over a third of
the worlds crops and that web of nourishment
encompasses everything from fruits like
peaches, apples, cherries, strawberries and
more
⢠Without this pollination those crops would be
history - to say nothing of the honey bees
produce or the flowers they also fertilize
If the bees are dying â what is happening to
the fish and other marine life?

Ship emissions harms the oceans
⢠Cecilie Mauritzen, a senior scientist of the climate division of Norwegian
Meteorological Institute, says emissions from ships that are far from land
cannot be ignored.
⢠According to Mauritzen, small particles, or particulate matter, carried in ships'
exhaust gases scatter and absorb solar and thermal radiation, indirectly
changing cloud properties. ''These aerosols have a cooling effect on the earth,
in that they reflect incoming shortwave radiation from the sun,'' Mauritzen told
Bunkerworld on November 8, 2007.
Cecilie Maurti
tzen
⢠The cooling effect might sound positive, given concern about global warning,
but Mauritzen said the aerosols were having a damaging impact. The
particulate matter carrying aerosols did not reach as far into the atmosphere,
and typically rained out after just a day or two, sending the particles into the
oceans, she explained.
⢠In shipping lanes, she said, ship after ship was emitting the aerosols,
contributing to an almost constant presence of particles in the atmosphere
close to the lanes. One impact was to increase rainfall in the area of the lanes,
which in turn sent larger volume of particles into the oceans.

Jellyfish population explosion warning
⢠Off the Northern Ireland coast a 10 mile wide, 13 meter
deep swarm of jellyfish attacked a salmon farm wiping out
over ÂŁ1million worth of stock.
⢠Billions of small jellyfish, known as Mauve Stingers, flooded
into the cages about a mile into the Irish Sea, off Glenarm
Bay and Cushendun.
⢠Swimming bans were imposed at beaches across the
Mediterranean because of an influx of stinging jellyfish
along coastlines from Spain to Sicily.
⢠The Red Cross organizations across the Mediterranean
region treated 50,000 people for stings in the summer of
2008, almost triple the figure for the previous year.

Soot-infused snow responsible for Arctic warming
⢠Researchers at the University of California, Irvine, believe
that while the threat of greenhouse emissions exists, soot-
infused or dirty snow also contributes majorly to global
warming.
⢠According to Charlie Zender, an Associate Professor of
Earth System Science at the UCI and co-author of the study,
dirty snow contributes to a third or more of Arctic warming.
⢠SECAâs are not enough. Earth could be headed for
catastrophic sea level rise in the next few centuries if SOx &
NOx pollution at sea continue at present levels.

Shipping pollutes as much as 195 billion cars
In other words; Shipping
is by far the biggest
transport polluter in the
world compared to road-
and air transport.
*Beginning in 1990 the sulphur in diesel fuel for cars has been steadily and drastically reduced from 5.000
PPM to reach 50 PPM now and a further reduction to 10 PPM (same as 0,001%) in 2009.

The hypocrisy of shipping
⢠A 20 foot container (1 TEU)
shipped from Shanghai to
Hamburg emits 37 kilos of
sulphur. This is the same as
3.950 cars emit at the same
time.
⢠A whole ship at 8.000 TEU
sailing from from Shanghai
to Hamburg, emits as much
sulphur as 31,6 million cars
emits during its 28 days at
sea.
⢠This means that only 24 of
8.000 TEU containerships
emit as much sulphur, as
the entire world wide car
fleet.

19. SOx and NOx reduction
Distillates vs. Scrubbers
⢠Scrubbers will reduce SOx by 99% NOx and particulate matter by 85%. Distillates will reduce SOx by
80% and particulate matter by 35%.
⢠The cost of introducing Distillates is estimated to USD 250 billion or more and it will take 20 years
to implement. And where will we make 382 (IMO own conservative figure for 2020) million tons of
Distillates? Where is the Refinery capacity to do this?
⢠CO2 levels from Refining 382 million tons of Distillates would rise by 20%.
⢠With sestillates ship owners will end up paying from 1100 $ or more per ton fuel. Why do this when
they can stay at USD 560$ with a scrubber?
⢠Using todays prices the industry is paying USD 200 billion per year for fuel. A switch to destillates
would boost that to USD 400 billion. An extra USD 200 billion per year.
⢠Retro-Fitting the existing Commercial Fleet of over 25.000 dwt would take only 5 years and cost
approx. USD 50 billion. All wiith no rise in CO2 levels and no rise in Global fuel prices due to change
of fuel.
Why should we pay USD 250 billion for distillates when we can have scrubbing for USD 50 Billion
which will cover 99% and take only 5 years to implement as a more effective measure against SO?
