Summary: An e-learning module dealing with issues related to the de-carbonisation of merchant shipping worldwide

Merchant ships currently burn heavy fuel oil. Alternative fuels such as Methanol, Ammonia and Hydrogen have been proposed as alternatives, but each fuel has complex handling, storage and combustion requirements. The course deals with these issues as well as future developments such as fuel cells.

Nature of Reusability: The entire course can be taken or individual blocks of particular interest. Components of the course to be extracted and re-used in other contexts.
