Reducing the carbon footprint of LNG shipping: Implementation of a combined waste heat recovery system in the onboard incinerator for lower environmental impact
(Elsevier, 2025)[Abstract] The shipping industry is committed to reducing CO₂ emissions by at least 40 % by 2030. Liquefied Natural Gas tankers play a critical role in achieving this target; however, these vessels typically rely on ... -
Relevance of Communicative, Team Effectiveness, and Long-Range Planning Skills in Vessel Crewmembers
(Gate Association for Teaching and Education (GATE), 2023)[Abstract] In recent years, soft skills have become increasingly important in many areas of the labor market and in the training of higher education students. This paper explores the perception that different crewmembers ... -
La situación de compromiso entre las asistencias portuarias y de escolta; la necesidad de disponer de un remolcador versátil
(Universidade da Coruña, Servizo de Publicacións, 2022)[Resumen] El crecimiento del tamaño de los buques asistidos, con los consecuentes riesgos implícitos que originan y que, por circunstancias geográficas, no vino aparejada por un incremento adecuado del tamaño de las ... -
The decarbonisation of the maritime sector: Horizon 2050
(University of Zagreb, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture, 2024)[Abstract] The decarbonisation of the maritime sector is one of the world's priorities to reduce the volume of polluting emissions. The basis of this decarbonisation is the adaptation of existing ships to emission control ... -
Thermo-economic analysis of green hydrogen production onboard LNG carriers through solid oxide electrolysis powered by organic Rankine cycles
(Elsevier, 2025)[Abstract] LNG carriers play a crucial role in the shipping industry meeting the global demand for natural gas (NG). However, the energy losses resulting from the propulsion system and the excess boil-off gas (BOG) cannot ... -
Thermo-Economic Comparison between Three Different Electrolysis Technologies Powered by a Conventional Organic Rankine Cycle for the Green Hydrogen Production Onboard Liquefied Natural Gas Carriers
(MDPI, 2024)[Abstract] The high demand for natural gas (NG) worldwide has led to an increase in the size of the LNG carrier fleet. However, the heat losses from this type of ship’s engines are not properly managed, nor is the excess ... -
Thermodynamic and Economic Analyses of Zero-Emission Open Loop Offshore Regasification Systems Integrating ORC with Zeotropic Mixtures and LNG Open Power Cycle
(MDPI, 2022)[Abstract] The present study provides an energy, exergy and economic analysis of a seawater regasification system (open loop) combining stages of simple organic Rankine cycles (ORCs) arranged in series with an open organic ... -
Thermodynamic and Environmental Analyses of a Novel Closed Loop Regasification System Integrating ORC and CO2 Capture in Floating Storage Regasification Units
(Elsevier, 2022)[Abstract] Regasification systems in Floating Storage Regasification Units (FSRUs) that use the steam generated by the boilers as the heat source (closed loop) in the liquefied natural gas (LNG) regasification process are ... -
Wind turbines design corrections for next Galicia climatic conditions
(Sharif University of Technology, 2017)[Abstract] Galicia, placed in northwest of Spain, is a clear example of global wind energy development as a consequence of its climate conditions. Despite this fact, previous research works have indicated a climate change ...
