MHFCA is a sponsoring and presenting at this event!
Lloyd's List events' 6th annual Green Ship Technology conference, taking place in Hamburg in 2009, is a must-attend event for the shipping industry where participants can exchange ideas and experiences, and keep up-to-date on technical and legislative developments, in plenary sessions, break-out sessions and in the informal networking breaks.
There is increasing intolerance for any kind of ship source pollution, and international regulations are becoming more and more stringent, in particular for all types of ships' emissions. Partnered with the high and rising cost of fuel, shipping companies and related industries are continuing to develop new, greener, technologies to deal with the issues of air emissions, fuel management, waste management, ballast water management, oily water/sludge waste removal and ship recycling. The drive for competitiveness, accompanied by concern for the environment, will continue to drive forward technological innovation and research in the maritime industry.
In today's world, environmental and economic objectives go hand-in-hand: this conference is your opportunity to hear about these new technologies and discuss the potential for sustainable ship operations, from design and build through to recycling. Discuss new ideas with your industry peers on the latest research and find out where technology is going and what has been achieved so far. |
