LNG Propulsion Systems for Inland Navigation

01.01.2010 - 31.01.2012
Research funding project
Feasibility study on the sustainable reduction of CO2 emissions as well as particle and NO2 emissions by using LNG (liquefied methane and bio methane) for the Danube inland naviga-tion. The study serves as preliminary planning for an experimental development project for a retrofit solution, contributing to short-and medium-term achievement of the Austrian climate targets.
