Hitz Green SCR Mk-Ⅱ- newly developed modelwith compact design
Hitachi Zosen’s newly-developed High pressure SCR (HitzGreen SCR Mk-Ⅱ) has successfully been in service from2021. Hitz Green SCR (Mk-Ⅱ) is smaller and more compact
compared to the previous model (Mk-Ⅰ). SCR system is used
for decomposing NOx into harmless nitrogen and water withthe aid of catalyst and urea solution. Tier III NOx regulationsof the International Maritime Organization (IMO) require
80% reduction of nitrogen oxides (NOx) emission from TierⅠ
regulations, that means it is necessary for marine vessels tobe equipped with any decomposing NOx technology.
Hitz Green SCR (Mk-Ⅱ) was developed to meet demands
from our customers. There was a great demand to downsize
the equipment for ships which will be additionally equippedwith SCR system because the space of engine rooms islimited. To meet this demand, Hitachi Zosen developed smallsized Hitz Green SCR (Mk-Ⅱ) which has greatly reduced
the installation area compared to the previous model and isapplicable to various vessel types.
Recorded 10,000 hours commercial operation
Received more than 117 orders from all over the world
More than 57 sets are already in service*As of December 2021

Urea Dilution Skid for Marine SCR
Since its market launching in 2019, Urea Dilution
Skid (hereafter called “UDS”) for SCR systems has
successfully in service since 2020. This device
produces urea solution, used as a reducing agent
for SCR systems that decomposes NOx, from urea
prill and the distilled water obtained from shipboard
water production equipment. The urea solution
storage tank is more compact and can produce
urea solution at low cost on board, contributing to
the stable decomposition of NOx.

Development of green technologies
targeting zero-emission from ships
IHI Power Systems Co., Ltd. (IPS) has been developing andupdating our products to meet consistently market needs andenvironmental regulations.
Since 2015, Japan's first LNG-Fueled tug Sakigake has beenin commercial operation powered by NIIGATA Brand propulsion
package of dual-fuel engines 28AHX-DF and Z-PELLER ® azimuth
thrusters. This configuration is essential for tugboats, which isable to follow a frequent and sudden load fluctuation in a gas
mode that meets IMO TierⅢ, and also changeover between gas
and diesel modes smoothly, even at any load condition. IPS hasdelivered 15 units of 28AHX-DF coupled with a fixed-pitch
propeller with proven design and continues to develop Methane(CH4) slip reduction.
IPS has been developing an ammonia-fueled engine as amember of the consortium that NYK Line takes initiative aiming touse ammonia as a marine fuel to significantly reduce greenhousegas (GHG) emissions during voyages and thus commercializing anammonia-fueled vessel for the good of society earlier than 2030 aspart of “Green Innovation Fund” project.
IPS undertakes a role in this consortium of developing a four-strokeammonia-fueled main engine for the operation of an ammonia-fueled tugboat(A-tug) and a four-stroke ammonia-fueled auxiliary engine for the operation ofan ammonia-fueled ammonia gas carrier (AFAGC). Targeting the delivery of
A-Tug is in FY2024, while AFAGC’s in FY2026 to achieve the earlier carbonneutral society by 2030. IPS aims to reduce GHG emissions by achieving anammonia fuel mixed combustion rate of 80% or higher taking advantage ofour knowledge and know-how of developing an LNG dual-fueled engine.
In response to the growing demand for a fully electric propulsion system,
IPS has developed L-Drive Electric Z-PELLER® for the electrical propulsion
system. It leads to a compact and highly efficient electric propulsion system
mounting Permanent Magnet motors vertically and omitting mechanical loss.
IPS can propose the most efficient electric propulsion package accommodatingeach customer’s operation profile and integrating the hybrid system with diesel
engine, azimuth thruster, generator, battery, motor, inverter, DC Grid, and so on.
IPS has been a front runner as a marine engine manufacturer in Japan forover 100 years. However, today the environment surrounding our businessis changing rapidly, and very uncertain about the next decade. To deal withthis unpredictability, we continue to make innovations beyond the existing
engine maker definition and provide reliable products and services all over
the world.
