[MO2] EKMOA-KMI Joint Sessions (Emerging technologies in the marine sector)
- Hayoung Jang (University of Strathclyde)
- Yong Sung Ahn (Korea Maritime Institute)
Description
Shipping plays a crucial role in international trade and commerce, accounting for over 90% of all such transactions. In this context, the effective management and domination of the sea by countries have been critical to driving global economic growth and trade. Despite the emphasis on emerging technologies in the current era of digitalization and decarbonization, there remains a pressing need for proper policies to support the development of these technologies in the shipping sector.
To address this issue, the Europe-Korea Marine and Ocean Engineers Association (EKMOA) and the Korea Maritime Institute (KMI) are collaborating to host a joint session focusing on emerging technologies in the marine sector. The session will have a specific policy focus, and will cover the following topics: international, regional, and national marine policies; institutional arrangements for the management and regulation of marine activities such as marine pollution and the environment, conservation of marine resources, and alternative shipping fuels.
This session is open to engineers, academics, and specialists in marine/shipping affairs, who are highly encouraged to contribute their knowledge and expertise. The focus on emerging technologies and the need for proper policies to support their development will be of great interest to the academic and technical communities.
It is understood that progress towards climate neutrality of waterborne transport can be achieved more quickly by means of retrofitting solutions on existing assets, to improve the performance of the fleet, whilst solutions that are exclusive to new ships can be implemented at the pace of the given fleet renewal. This makes more sense when taking into consideration the comparatively long-life...
Abstract
In Korea, air pollutants such as NOx, SOx, and PM-10 emitted from ships such as cargo ships are calculated and managed by the “Clean Air Policy Support System(CAPSS)”, and various policies are established and managed to reduce emissions from ships.
In particular, five large ports(Busan, Incheon, Ulsan, Yeosu & Gwangyang, Pyeongtaek & Dangjin) have been legally regulated by...
Abstract
This study aims to estimate contribution of air pollutants (NOX, SOX, CO, PM2.5, PM10, and NMVOC) from ships for one year (2020) in port in Korea, Busan and Incheon Port.
In order to estimate contribution of air concentration by ship emission, we apply to CMAQ model with ISAM (The Integrated Source Apportionment Method).
CMAQ, a chemical transport model, is a numerical model that...
The accelerated switch to renewable energy makes wind energy harvesting more necessary. Germany and other European countries announced ambitious goals for future energy generations from renewable sources – especially wind. However, for onshore wind energy generation there is often a conflict of interest between wind turbines and third parties. For offshore wind generations faster and more...
