Introduction to Alfa Laval and PureNOx Prime
Alfa Laval is a global leader in providing specialized products and engineered solutions aimed at optimizing customer processes. The company is renowned for its equipment and services that assist in heating, cooling, separating, and transporting various products.

Compliance with NOx Limits
Starting January 2016, new vessels must adhere to Tier III NOx limits within 200 nautical miles of the North American coast. EGR technology, particularly when used with low-sulphur fuel, is a cost-effective solution for compliance. Alfa Laval's PureNOx Prime plays a significant role in this economical approach.

PureNOx Prime Technology
Developed in collaboration with MAN, PureNOx Prime has demonstrated its effectiveness in EGR water treatment, ensuring compliance with MEPC.184(59) criteria over 3500 hours at sea. It offers a streamlined design that reduces both footprint and cost, making it an attractive option for EGR engines using low-sulphur fuel.

Installation and Support
PureNOx Prime is designed for easy installation and can be configured as separate skids if necessary. It is supported by Alfa Laval's global service network, providing 24/7 expert assistance. Maintenance and operational support can be included in an Alfa Laval Performance Agreement to ensure reliability.

Advantages of EGR with PureNOx Technology
EGR with PureNOx technology is compact and cost-effective, especially for large vessels. It offers significant space savings compared to Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) and has lower operating costs. The system is fully automated, ensuring quick compliance with NOx regulations.

Conclusion
Alfa Laval's PureNOx Prime represents a significant advancement in EGR technology, providing a competitive edge in NOx abatement for vessels operating within NOx Emission Control Areas.
