  • Patent number: 11578631
    Abstract: A mobile emissions control system is provided for diesel engines operated on ocean-going ships at-berth. The emissions control system comprises two essential elements: an emissions capturing system and an emissions control system. The emissions control system may be mounted on a towable chassis or mounted on a barge, allowing it to be placed alongside ocean-going ships at-berth. The emission capturing system captures exhaust from a ship's diesel engine and conducts it into the emissions control system, which cleans the exhaust and then passes clean air into the atmosphere through an exhaust outlet.

  • Patent number: 11215095
    Abstract: A mobile emissions control system having an emission capturing system and emission control system is provided for diesel engines operated on ocean-going ships at-berth. The emissions control system may be mounted on a towable chassis or mounted on a barge, allowing it to be placed alongside ocean-going ships at-berth. A crane or boom transfers a duct of the emissions capturing system extending from the emissions control system to the ship to capture exhaust from its engine. Alternatively, the system may be mounted on an automated guided vehicle (AGV) equipped with a tower and a crane. The crane mounted on the AGV then lifts the duct forming part of the emissions capture system to the ship's exhaust system to capture exhaust from the ship's diesel engine and transfers it to the emissions control system, which cleans the exhaust and then passes clean air into the atmosphere through an exhaust outlet.

  • Patent number: 10619539
    Abstract: An emission control system is provided for diesel engines operated on ocean-going ships at-berth that may be easily installed and removed from on ocean-going ships (or vessels) while at-berth. The emission control system is arranged within a housing sized to fit within space allocated for standard shipping containers. The emission control system has an inlet for receiving exhaust from a ships engine, cleans the exhaust and then passes the exhaust through an exhaust outlet connected to the ships stacks.
