Let’s give praise and encouragement to the achievements made in China’s chemical engineering technology and equipment; your participation in discussions is the greatest encouragement. **********************【Ten Years of Progress in Chemical Engineering Equipment】A continuously updated summary post is available – feel free to join the discussions: https://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-3576046-1-1.html ***************** Recently, the first X72DF-A ammonia-fueled low-speed engine developed by CSSC Engine Corporation was able to operate at full load in ammonia-fueled mode successfully at its headquarters in Qingdao. This represents a significant advancement in the development of ammonia-fueled low-speed engines by CSSC Engine, and it is also the first time in China that full-range operation in ammonia-fueled mode has been achieved in marine low-speed engines. https://p3-sign.toutiaoimg.com/tos-cn-i-axegupay5k/87d1e86465c14d23a8e4c2e85b2eeee8~tplv-tt-origin-web:gif.jpeg?_iz=58558&from=article.pc_detail&lk3s=953192f4&x-expires=1767237103&x-signature=XMf85zuljnZKS5y7B%2F6XPqbzXK4%3D The first X72DF-A ammonia-fueled low-speed engine developed by CSSC’s engine division. It is reported that this verification of stable operation under all operating conditions confirmed the completeness and effectiveness of the functions of the new large-bore dual-fuel test bench, auxiliary systems, liquid ammonia stations, and ammonia fuel supply units developed by CSSC Engine, as well as the quality of the main engine’s assembly, the debugging process, and safety control measures. This demonstrates that the company now possesses the capability to conduct full-load tests on engines powered by ammonia fuel. Qingdao is one of China’s main research, development, and manufacturing hubs for marine low-speed engines. The successful full-load operation of the ammonia fuel mode this time not only fills the gap in China regarding the operation of ammonia fuel engines on ships under all conditions, but it will also contribute to the development of diverse global clean marine power solutions.
