Sonihull
Presenting a unique and cost-effective product that will cut fuel costs, reduce carbon emissions, and enable fleet of vessels to remain compliant and competitive in the coming years ahead.
The product, Sonihull, uses ultrasonics energy to prevent the growth of biofouling that typically builds up over time, creating fouled surfaces inducing inefficiencies that will impact your asset’s performance.
- The product is an ultrasound transducer sending ultrasonic waves that creates microscopic bubbles which have very low inertia.
- These bubbles will implode along the surfaces intended to be protected, causing a slight disturbance which disallows bacteria cells to attach and form a layer of slime film.
- This cuts off the food chain for further marine growth to form, thus keeping the surface clean from biofouling.
- The topic is now of interest to many ship owners/charterers/managers as its helps in saving fuel by preventing biofouling and saving costs by extending cleaning intervals.
- Ships with Engine-Power-Limitation applied since start of 2023 need maximum power for use. There is increasing traction among owners to install Sonihull for propellers to keep them clean, maintaining propulsion efficiency & ensuring competitive edge.
- Biofouling management may be used as a means of compliance with IMO carbon intensity requirements. As a result of lower fuel consumed, lowered emissions will enable vessels to be more competitive in the new CII regulatory environment.
- Sonihull Fitments include (but not limited to): Propellers for propulsion efficiency, Hull for voyage efficiency, Sea Chest/Strainers/Sea waterpipes/ Plate coolers for cooling system efficiency, along with any areas persistently affected with Biofouling that affects overall vessel performance.
Keep your propellers clean & ensure its propulsion efficiency all year round, bringing fuel burn down and reducing your GHG emissions.
Keep your cooling system running optimally all year round, by protecting your sea chests, seawater pipes, strainers and box coolers from unwanted biofouling.
