Alfa Laval to supply first systems for ammonia-fuelled marine vessels by end of 2025
Alfa Laval announces its readiness to supply the first fuel systems for ammonia-fuelled vessels by the end of 2025, marking a significant step towards decarbonizing the marine industry. The company is partnering with WinGD to develop and validate the Alfa Laval FCM Ammonia fuel supply system by the end of 2024. Alfa Laval is also collaborating with WinGD, ABS, and K Shipbuilding on an ammonia-fuelled MR tanker design, including an ammonia dual-fuel boiler system.
As a zero-carbon fuel, ammonia is expected to play a important role in reducing the marine industry's carbon emissions, which currently account for nearly 3% of global carbon emissions. Alfa Laval's President of Marine Division, Sameer Kalra, emphasizes the company's commitment to supporting the maritime industry's transition to sustainable energy sources and its readiness to be a key enabler in this transition.
Alfa Laval annuncia la sua disponibilità a fornire i primi sistemi di alimentazione per vessel alimentati ad ammoniaca entro la fine del 2025, segnando un passo significativo verso la decarbonizzazione dell'industria marina. L'azienda sta collaborando con WinGD per sviluppare e validare il sistema di fornitura di carburante Alfa Laval FCM Ammonia entro la fine del 2024. Alfa Laval sta anche collaborando con WinGD, ABS e K Shipbuilding su un design di tanker MR alimentato ad ammoniaca, inclusi un sistema di caldaia dual-fuel ad ammoniaca.
Essendo un combustibile a zero emissioni, l'ammoniaca si prevede giocherà un ruolo importante nella riduzione delle emissioni di carbonio dell'industria marittima, che attualmente rappresentano quasi il 3% delle emissioni globali di carbonio. Il presidente della divisione marittima di Alfa Laval, Sameer Kalra, sottolinea l'impegno dell'azienda nel supportare la transizione dell'industria marittima verso fonti di energia sostenibili e la sua prontezza ad essere un attore chiave in questa transizione.

Alfa Laval kündigt seine Bereitschaft an, die ersten Kraftstoffsysteme für mit Ammoniak betriebenen Schiffen bis Ende 2025 bereitzustellen, was einen bedeutenden Schritt in Richtung Dekarbonisierung der maritimen Industrie darstellt. Das Unternehmen arbeitet mit WinGD zusammen, um das Alfa Laval FCM Ammoniak-Brennstoffversorgungssystem bis Ende 2024 zu entwickeln und zu validieren. Alfa Laval kooperiert auch mit WinGD, ABS und K Shipbuilding an einem MR-Tanker-Design, das mit Ammoniak betrieben wird, einschließlich eines Ammoniak-Dual-Fuel-Kesselsystems.
Als nullcarboner Brennstoff wird erwartet, dass Ammoniak eine wichtige Rolle bei der Verringerung der Kohlenstoffemissionen der maritimen Industrie spielt, die derzeit fast 3 % der globalen Kohlenstoffemissionen ausmacht. Sameer Kalra, Präsident der maritimen Division von Alfa Laval, betont das Engagement des Unternehmens, den Übergang der maritimen Industrie zu nachhaltigen Energiequellen zu unterstützen, und ist bereit, ein wesentlicher Ermöglicher in diesem Übergang zu sein.

Leveraging its extensive expertise with fuels such as LNG, LPG, and methanol, Alfa Laval is accelerating the development of new technologies for ammonia to ensure its safe and efficient use as a future fuel, through partnerships and joint development projects.
Ammonia-fuelled vessels – a reality in 2025
In partnership with Swiss engine designer WinGD, Alfa Laval has delivered two test systems for WinGD's ammonia-fuelled engines, including a fuel valve train and a vent treatment system. The Alfa Laval FCM Ammonia fuel supply system design will be validated by the end of 2024, with the first marine delivery expected by the end of 2025.
"The Alfa Laval FCM Ammonia is another addition to our toolbox of solutions that accelerate the decarbonization of shipping. This delivery to WinGD highlights our technology readiness to handle ammonia as a fuel, demonstrating our commitment to supporting the maritime industry's transition to sustainable energy sources," says Sameer Kalra, President, Marine Division, Alfa Laval.
Exploring the potential of ammonia
Following a recent Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), Alfa Laval, WinGD, the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), and K Shipbuilding (KSB) are collaborating to drive the necessary technological advancements in an ammonia-fuelled MR tanker design. Recently, the scope expanded to include the design of an ammonia dual-fuel boiler system. This boiler system will efficiently handle purge/boil-off gas and meet the vessel's heat demands, thereby minimizing the vessel's energy consumption, whilst ensuring safe operations.
As a zero-carbon fuel, ammonia is anticipated to become an important component in the marine industry´s efforts to reduce its carbon emissions, holding significant promise to meet the International Maritime Organization's (IMO) 2050 strategy.
"By investing our resources in research, development and innovation, we are steadily advancing in our ambition to enable a future powered by alternative fuels," says Kalra. "Many shipowners are exploring the use of ammonia as fuel, and Alfa Laval is ready to be a key enabler of this transition— with innovative solutions, technological capabilities and experience in handling a wide range of fuels."
