Currently, scrubbing systems are frequently employed to eliminate particulate matter and harmful substances, such as sulfur oxides and nitrogen oxides resulting from combustion processes in the marine sector. This action is very necessary for ensuring air pollution control. The areas of scrubber use encompass exhaust management from engines, auxiliary engines, and boilers, both on land...

Types of Air Pollution Control Equipment
Air pollution is the most pressing issue facing contemporary society that demands an immediate resolution. Air pollution can originate from natural sources—such as volcanic eruptions and wildfires—as well as from human activities (both mobile and stationary). Air pollution control remains the only way of air treatment. Each industrial process generates various air pollutants, which is why...

Scrubbing System Users vs. European Commission Proposals
The European Commission has recently suggested tougher discharge regulations for users of open-loop scrubbing systems to update rules governing sulfur reduction technology. While wet scrubbers provide a satisfactory solution for sulfur compliance, European Commission officials believe that open-loop scrubbing systems generate detrimental liquid waste, compelling governments to implement restrictions or bans to protect the marine...
