Abstract:
A ship propulsion system is disclosed comprising an internal combustion engine for driving a ship, wherein the internal combustion engine comprises a combustion chamber for combusting fossil fuel, a supply line for delivering a gas mixture to the combustion chamber, an electrolysis chamber for producing hydrogen gas and oxygen gas, and a vacuum pump for sucking the hydrogen gas and the oxygen gas from the electrolysis chamber. The ship propulsion system furthermore comprises a gasification tank with volatile organic compounds received therein, in particular methanol or ethanol, as well as a supply line for supplying a gas mixture to the combustion chamber, wherein the gas mixture comprises gasified organic compounds from the gasification tank and at least a part of the hydrogen gas and the oxygen gas. Furthermore a corresponding method for operation a ship propulsion system is disclosed.

Claim (Index 9):
A method for operating a ship propulsion system, the method comprising:\n propelling a ship with an internal combustion engine by introducing a fossil fuel into a combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine, wherein, in an electrolysis chamber, hydrogen gas and oxygen gas are produced, and wherein a gas mixture is conveyed via a compressor of a turbocharger to the combustion chamber, the gas mixture including at least a part of the hydrogen gas and the oxygen gas, wherein:\n the hydrogen gas and the oxygen gas are drawn off from the electrolysis chamber with a vacuum pump, \n in a gasification tank, volatile organic compounds are gasified, \n an air supply for supplying compressed air into the gasification tank is provided, and with an air compressor, which is provided in addition to the turbocharger, air is pumped into the gasification tank, and \n the gas mixture, which is guided via the turbocharger to the combustion chamber, also includes gasified organic compounds from the gasification tank.
