Monitoring shipping emissions with various techniques towards ensuring compliance to the new regulations: The SCIPPER project
conference paper
This paper presents the measurement techniques deployed by the European funded SCIPPER project in order to
identify their potential in assisting regulatory authorities to enforce the new emission limits for shipping. On-board
sensors, sniffer remote and remote optical devices were extensively used in field campaigns to measure over 1000
ship plumes in major European seas, such as the ports of Hamburg and Marseille, a route in the Baltic Sea and the
English Channel. Demonstration results revealed the operational characteristics of the techniques, further to their
pollutant detection sensitivity. A preliminary evaluation is conducted in this study considering several criteria of
technology maturity, operational capacity, ease of implementation and costs.
