Inline & Offline Configurations

DeepBlueLAB marine scrubber system for SOx emission control and exhaust gas cleaning on ships

Flexible integration for all engine configurations

Both Inline and Offline configurations are fully compatible with:

  • Single engine installations (main propulsion or gensets)
  • Multi-engine systems also called Multi stream configuration

LAB customizes the system layout and urea dosing strategy to match the operational profile of each engine.


The in-line configuration

With the In-Line configuration, the scrubber is installed in place of the existing silencers directly inside the funnel. The solution guarantees the minimum visual impact and space requirement.

  • Scrubber towers are manufactured in super austenitic steel in order to operate in Wet and Dry Mode without exhaust bypass duct
  • The Silencer function is integrated in the scrubber design
  • The systems are proposed in Single or Multi-engine configuration

The Off-line configuration

With the Off-Line configuration, the scrubber is installed in parallel of the existing exhaust line which act as a bypass. In a multi-engine configuration, the exhaust gases are typically collected in a common duct and conveyed through a quench to a single austenitic steel or GRP Scrubber. Dampers are required to isolate each single engine and exhaust line.

  • Super austenitic steel or GRP solution
  • Multi-engine configuration is proposed.
