were chosen. The process is simulated using Aspen Plus®, with 30 wt% aqueous monoethanolamine (MEA) and
30 wt% aqueous piperazine (PZ) as solvents. CAPEX and OPEX were reduced by integrating the thermal energy
of the exhaust gas with the stripper reboiler for the diesel and LNG powered ships. For the LNG ships, the cooling
capacity from evaporation of LNG was used for liquefying the captured CO2. By using piperazine, which allows
CO2 to be desorbed at higher pressure than MEA, the minimal cost of CO2 captured achieved was 98 €/tonne CO2
with a corresponding 1.8 million euros equipment cost for the 3000 kW engine ship. Additionally, the feasibility
of SBCC is investigated by adapting an existing cargo ship design (powered by the reference 3000 kW engine) for
including the carbon capture process equipment. The capture, compression and storage units are fitted onboard,
and the design is modified so that the transport capacity remains the same, while maintaining the ship stability.

available in the exhaust when the exhaust gas reaches the reboiler at
381 °C (temperature after turbocharger at 100% load). The second line
considers a temperature loss of 10 K between the exit of the turbo-
charger and the reboiler. In both cases, there is enough heat in the
exhaust gas to achieve more than 90% capture. In only one of the
variants investigated in this study, the capture capacity could not reach
the design value of 90%, as it was limited by the heat availability to
80%, as discussed in the results.
There is a cold-side thermal integration between the compressed
CO2 and the LNG in the vaporizer. In the heat exchanger, CO2 is cooled
down and then liquefied, whereas LNG is vaporized to NG and heated
up. Again, the results of the LNG powered 3000 kW cargo ship scenario
with SBCC using MEA are given for illustrating the methodology. The
amount of available LNG for cooling is calculated based on the fuel
consumption at 100% engine load, which is enough for liquifying CO2

The Variable OPEX (VOPEX) was estimated based on the electricity
demand of the SBCC system, including pumps and compressors. The
electricity is generated onboard from LNG, and therefore the price of
electricity depends on the fuel price. Table 5 shows the parameters used
to convert the electricity consumption to an annual operational cost.
Fixed OPEX (Eq. (6)) includes long term service agreement, over-
head cost and operating & maintenance cost. It can be calculated using
the annualized CAPEX value (Luo and Wang, 2017).
FOPEX a = 0.03*CAPEX a (6)
Cost of Captured CO2 (Eq. (7)) is calculated by adding the annual
values of CAPEX, FOPEX and VOPEX and dividing this by the amount of
captured CO2.

Fig. 7 shows the calculated capital cost for the eight different var-
iants. The diesel variants have an additional price component for the
NH3 refrigeration, which considerable increases the total equipment
cost when compared to the LNG variants.
The compression cost for all the variants based on the piperazine are
lower than for their MEA counterparts. This is due to the reduced
equipment cost of the compression unit, as piperazine is a high-pressure
desorption solvent.
Additionally, Fig. 7 shows the difference in total equipment cost
between the 60% and 90% CO2 capture. The estimated equipment cost
for 60% is only slightly lower than the 90% CO2 capture. Despite the
substantially lowered flowrates, the difference in the cost of the CO2
compression unit is only marginal. Therefore, the Cost of Captured CO2
(CCC) expressed in €/tonne CO2, is lower for the 90% capture when
compared to the 60% capture (see Fig. 8).
Literature indicates that the inland ship considered in this work Fig. 7. Equipment cost of post-combustion capture for the 1280 kW inland
