Zomer, G.R. (author), Finner, S.P. (author), Harmsen, J. (author), Vredeveldt, A.W. (author), van Lieshout, P.S. (author)Increasing pressure on shipping to contribute to reduce GHG emissions is changing the landscape for marine fuels. In the quest for sustainable alternative fuels, methanol is one of the fuels that has a special interest in the Green Maritime Methanol project. This report focuses on the operational aspects of using methanol, in terms of...report 2020

Vredeveldt, A.W. (author), van Dijk, T. (author), van den Brink, A. (author)There is a strong urge to replace conventional bunker fuels such as heavy fuel oil (HFO), marine diesel oil (MDO) and marine gas oil (MGO) by ‘fuels’ which do not give a net emission of greenhouse gasses or emit pollutants when combusted. Candidate fuels are methanol, dimethyl ether (DME), ammonia, pressurised hydrogen and liquefied hydrogen....report 2020

van Lieshout, P.S. (author), de Jonge, V. (author), Vredeveldt, A.W. (author), Finner, S. (author)Introducing alternative fuels on board has many far stretching implications for ship operators, authorities, fuel suppliers, equipment suppliers, engine manufacturers, ship builders and naval architects. In most cases such parties are not familiar with these new fuels. Hence a need exists for them for a means to quickly familiarize oneself with...report 2020

Deul, M.L. (author), Hulsbosch-Dam, C.E.C. (author), Vredeveldt, A.W. (author), Werter, N.P.M. (author), Fernandes, A. (author)Green Methanol is one of the feasible alternative energy carrier candidates for replacing fossil fuels on board ships. Unfortunately methanol is toxic to humans and it has a flashpoint of 12 °C which is well below the minimum required temperature of 60 °C , according SOLAS, hence also posing a fire risk. Therefore methanol needs to be regarded...report 2022

(author), Smokers, R.T.M. (author)In het Klimaatakkoord van Parijs zijn 196 partijen overeengekomen te streven naar een maximale mondiale temperatuurstijging van 1,5°C. Om deze doelstellingen te halen, moet de uitstoot van broeikasgasemissies sterk worden verminderd. Voor de EU is de doelstelling 55% reductie overall voor 2030, ten opzichte van 1990, en tenminste 95% voor 2050....report 2023
