Reducing pollution from ships in port: a new idea

Ships in California, and soon in Europe, need to connect to shore power when alongside. It is for health reasons due to nitrous oxides and small harmful particulates that damage the health of people in nearby communities. The problem comes when there is no shore connection.There is an alternative, and this is what STAX Engineering is beginning to offer. Collect and treat the emissions from barges. The company is growing in California and has its eyes on Europe and UK, as well as expending to collect other shipping emissions too.In this week's Green Seas, TradeWinds technology editor Craig Eason looks at port emission regulations and talks to STAX chief executive MIke Walker about their idea to suck up exhaust and treat it.
