NH3CRAFT - Safe and efficient storage of ammonia within ships

NH3CRAFT旨在全面设计，工程，开发和展示下一代可持续，商业上有吸引力和安全的技术，用于大量船上储存NH3作为船用燃料。在一艘31000载重吨（DWT）的多用途船上，将安装两个创新的模块化和可扩展的钢和复合储罐配置，可容纳1000立方米10bar的液态NH3，以及相应的辅助系统。此外，还将研究和记录五种不同类型的船舶和相应的燃料储罐概念改造：SSS散货船，油轮和集装箱远洋船，典型的RoPax渡轮和小型内河运输客船。一个创新的数字平台将通过数字接口集成所有核心模拟和模型，并将为燃料存储、供应、管道、监控和排气子系统开发工程系统矩阵和规范。所有船舶的安全和风险评估将导致安全指南和入级规则的发展。NH3CRAFT将展示整个NH3供应链，以增加对其使用的信心并促进其吸收。LCA和技术经济评估将证明可持续性，并将支持创新解决方案的进一步开发和商业化。愿景是到2050年，与2008年相比，率先将温室气体排放量减少至少50%，并最终“消除航运温室气体排放总量和空气污染”（ZEWT目标的SRIA），与《巴黎协定》保持一致。NH3CRAFT致力于帮助欧洲满足社会需求，保持全球海事领导地位，并通过新的国际标准、规则和法规，为高技能工作、安全、高效和可持续的技术解决方案提供创新驱动的产业。

NH3CRAFT aims at fully designing, engineering, developing and demonstrating a next generation sustainable, commercially attractive and safe technology for high-quantity on-board storage of NH3 as marine fuel. Two innovative modular and scalable steel and composite storage tank configurations for 1,000 m3 liquid NH3 at 10 bar and the corresponding auxiliary systems will be installed on a 31,000 Deadweight Tonnage (DWT) multi-purpose vessel. The exact vessel has been designated and provided by a participating major ship management company Additionally, five different types of vessels and corresponding fuel-storage tank concept adaptations will be studied and documented: a SSS bulk carrier, a tanker and a container ocean going vessels, a typical RoPax ferry, and a small Inland Waterways Transportation passenger vessel. An innovative digital platform will integrate all core simulations and models through digital interfaces and will develop an engineering system matrix and specifications for the fuel storage, supply, and piping, monitoring and venting subsystems. Safety and risk assessment for all vessels will lead to the development of safety guidelines and classification rules. NH3CRAFT will showcase the entire NH3 supply chain in order to increase confidence in its use and promote its uptake. LCA and technoeconomic evaluation will prove the sustainability and will support further exploitation and commercialization of the innovative solutions. The vision is to pioneer the reduction of GHG emissions by at least 50% by 2050 compared to 2008 and the eventual “elimination of total GHG emissions and air pollution” from shipping (SRIA for ZEWT goals) remaining consistent with the Paris Agreement. NH3CRAFT aspires to help Europe serve societal needs, maintain global maritime leadership, and support an innovation-driven industry with highly skilled jobs, safe, efficient, and sustainable technological solutions, with new international standards, rules, and regulations.
