Renewable fuels, carbon capture and utilization, and treatment of emissions originating from IC engines - MarineCO2 - Development project

The MarineCO2 project will generate new knowledge on the effects of renewable fuels for internal combustion engines on exhaust gas composition and the capture, recovery and utilisation of CO2 in exhaust gases, but also on the management of other harmful compounds. The project will investigate the use of CO2 captured from the engine environment for fuel production and the conversion of other harmful compounds in exhaust gases into a harmless form. The aim is to select and develop catalysts for the removal of nitrogen oxides, ammonia and methane from exhaust gases, which are produced by the use of liquid biofuels, biogas, ammonia, etc. as fuels for internal combustion engines. The use of regional biomass for the production of renewable fuels will also be examined.
