Van Aalst promotes emissions regulations of NACC Alicudi cement carrier

11 October 2018

Netherlands: Van Aalst says that NACC Alicudi is the world’s first cement carrier equipped with International Maritime Organization (IMO) Tier III compliant diesel engines driving the bulk handling system. Converted in 2017 with a Van Aalst dry bulk handling system, the vessel became a 120m self-discharging cement carrier, with a cement handling system based on compressors and vacuum pumps, driven by Tier III Scania engines. This has created a ‘unique’ vacuum-pressure system for pneumatic conveyance of cement, fly ash and granulated slag.

Directly after completion of the conversion, the NACC Alicudi entered the trade for a three-year contract on the east coast of the US and Canada, an area that has been a NOx Emission Control Area (ECA) for new built and converted vessels since January 2016. Van Aalst says that this approach fits well with the environmental policies of both NovaAlgoma Cement Carriers and McInnis Cement. The high emission standards of the vessel will enable a shift to the US Gulf of Mexico, Puerto Rico and Hawaii.
