WinGD Launches New ‘Eco-Engines’ for Low Carbon Shipping

  • Engine technology company WinGD has launched a new dual fuel engine technology iCER to reduce methane slip, and other improvements for better combustion control.
  • The company sees the engine as a way for companies to maintain flexibility as new fuels come into operation.
  • The engine reduces the reactivity of the gas-air mixture by replacing oxygen in the suction air by CO2.
  • The iCER system is replacing oxygen in the combustion with CO2 by default.

Aerosol Inhalation Reason for Cruise Ship Turning To A COVID-19 Hotspot

  • A computer model of the cruise-ship outbreak found that the virus spread via microscopic droplets.
  • 700 of the 3,711 passengers and crew members had tested positive for COVID-19.
  • A research team tried to tease out the ways in which the virus passed from person to person.
  • The transmission was via microscopic droplets that were light enough to float in the air.
  • Researchers performed more than 20,000 simulations to determine the virus spread in the ship.
  • Compared to large droplets, smaller...
