Context and legislation: Existing and potential ECA (Emission Control Areas) zones EU-ECA EU Picture Font: Brochure DNV-GL Maritime “GLOBAL SULPHUR CAP 2020 – Know the different choices and challenges for on-time compliance” https://www.dnvgl.com/maritime/publications/global-sulphur-cap-2020.html . 3
Context and legislation: tightening constraints on emissions and available solutions to comply • Currently available solutions to comply Since 01.01.2015 - Compliant fuels (MGO, Low S fuel oil,...) • Use of fuel with max. 0.1% S - Alternative fuels (LNG, Methanol,…) binding in Emission Control - Wet scrubbers (open/closed loop, hybrid) Areas (ECA’s) • Current ECA areas: North- and - Dry systems using lime based sorbents (3 cases) Baltic Sea, North American coast areas • Alternative solutions: - Dry systems using sodium-based sorbents (based As of 01.01.2020 on SOLVAir® Solutions) • worldwide limitation of S- content in fuels: 0,5 % S

Major Wet Scrubbing Systems - Closed Loop; - Open Loop; - Hybrid. % of operating time in which chemical addiction is requested - Closed loop mode: 100% - Open loop mode: 0% (where washwater discharge is forbidden, vessels are forced to shift from HFO to LSF) - Hybrid Mode (i.e. it can work both in Closed and Open mode): vessels must work in closed mode only where washwater discharge is forbidden (e.g. at berth or mooring).. Exhaust Gas in air Exhaust Gas in air Scrubber Scrubber Soda Ash Soda Ash (or NaOH) (or NaOH) Exhaust from the engine Hybrid Mode Exhaust from the engine Sea water IN Sea washwater OUT Closed Mode Open Mode 6
Product Characteristics of Sodium-Based Sorbents • Mineral Powder: – Non Corrosive – Non Irritant – Non Toxic • Can be handled easily A safe & mineral without any risk product • Essential raw material in numerous industrial and manufacturing activities
Why is the dry SOLVAir® Process so efficient? Activation of the sorbent after injection into the exhaust gas stream: before activation activated status (SEM x 5000) (SEM x 5000)
4. Results dry SOLVAir® Process for Maritime achieved clean gas SOx concentrations 500 ppm S (HFO: 2,2 – 2,5 %S) SO2 [ppm] Rawgas; Cleangas Ratio SO2 [ppm]/ CO2 [%] IMO SOx limit: clean gas after treatment: equivalent to MGO (0,1 % S) ~ 12 ppm S Time
Advantages of SOLVAir® Solutions in Maritime Applications The main SOLVAir® Solutions brings many advantages for ship advantages compared to wet scrubbers owners and • Comparable SOx reduction rate operators are • Higher particle removal rate (> 99 %) • Flexibility to use cheaper HFO • No liquid effluents even when • Less internal power consumption cruising in (no pumps for washing water) already existing Emission Control SOLVAir® • Lower CAPEX, OPEX Areas Marine • For installation no need for a dry dock • Readiness • Combination with SCR DeNOX possible for the global • Negligible effect on backpressure regulation in 2020 to the engine and beyond • Smaller effort for maintenance and operation thanks to simplicity of the process • Low sensitivity to failure
