Recommendations for Design and Operation of Ammonia-Fuelled Vessels Based on Multi-disciplinary Risk Analysis
Year: 2023 Language: english Author: Lloyd's Register Genre: Guide Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 62 Description: The implementation of alternatives to conventional fossil-based fuels is key to decarbonization of the global shipping industry. Ammonia is currently one of the frontrunners among alternative shipping fuels, as it can be combusted with almost no carbon dioxide emissions. However, using ammonia as a shipping fuel involves safety hazards: primarily toxicity, but also onboard fires and explosions. Therefore, it is crucial to understand these risks and the safeguards that can be implemented to reduce them to tolerable levels. The recommendations and results from this report can and should be used to further inform specific regulations, guidelines, and best practices that will allow ammonia-fuelled vessels to be acceptably safe for the crew.
