DIMINISHING PORT EMISSIONS FROM FISHING VESSELS
Journal Title: RECENT - Year 2010, Vol 11, Issue 1
Abstract
Marine engine emission has a global, regional and local impact. On board the ships exist two types of engines: main engines and auxiliary engines. In ports, ships use their auxiliary engines to produce electricity for cruising, manoeuvring and hotteling. Port emissions are fled by the port surrounding community in a very negative way, especially if ports located inside the cities, as it happens in Turkey. The Turkish fleet has a number of 176 fishing vessels. Having in view the long Turkey's coastline, fishing has the potential to become an important contributor to the economy. This paper assesses port emissions from fishing vessels. In order to reduce the environmental problems, consequent to the port activities, in this work is proposed an energy supply for the fishing vessels utilities from the national grid. Such a scenario allows a NOx diminishing at berth of about 97%.
