MAN Diesel & Turbo ordered the construction of a gas power plant with a 30 MW engine from the Energie Baden-Württemberg AG (EnBW) company. The combined heat and power (CHP) plant in Stuttgart-Gaisburg will use three MAN 20V35 gas engines, which will not only supply electric energy, but also an additional 30 MW of district heating. The factory in Gaisburg is based on the recently implemented energy cogeneration concept of the MAN Diesel & Turbo company. The factory's modular concept allows for its scaling from 7 MW up to any size. The high level of standardisation also enables fast planning of the delivery time. The plant is scheduled to be placed in operation in 2018.

MAN Yacht Engines Win International Award

Written by
The MAN Engines company seated in Germany announced that its i6-800 and i6-730 marine engines won the Red Dot international award for quality and design. An independent professional panel took into account factors such as innovations, functionalities and eco-friendliness. In a speech after the award ceremony, Head of MAN Marine Engines Claus Benzler said: "With the introduction of the i6, we now have a MAN engine which no longer purely represents reliability and performance. The design of the i6 engine is extraordinary. It is the "icing on the cake" for luxury yachts, and next to dynamics, it also brings aesthetics to the engine room.". MAN introduced the latest 6-cylinder engines in December 2015, with the aim of equipping yachts, sports vessels and fishing vessels. The MAN i6-800 has an output of 588 kW, while the smaller MAN i6-730 has an output of 537 kW. They are equipped with modern common rail injection systems with up to 1800 bar.

New MAN Engines for Ultra-Large Vessels

Written by
MAN Diesel & Turbo has added three new engines to its programme of ultra-large engines, intended for, among other types of vessels, ultra-large container vessels (ULCVs) and feeder vessels. The engines are of optimized weight, in comparison to their Mk 9 siblings, and represent a new design for the Mk 10 platform of the portfolio. The key feature of the new platform is the development of the top controlled exhaust valve and the booster valve (the fuel booster injection valve component). The new units are: MAN type B & W G90ME-C10, 6,240 kW per cylinder; MAN type B & W S60ME-C10, 2,490 kW per cylinder; MAN type B & W S70ME-C10, 3,430 kW per cylinder. This is the first time that the fuel booster injection valve has been used for such a purpose. It was a pilot project installed on a container ship only six months before it was placed on the market.
Sulzer has signed a binding contract on the purchase of VIEC from Wärtsila. The VIEC (Vessel Internal Electrostatic Coalescer) currently has 13 employees and is established in Asker, Norway. VIEC's patented technology separates oil from water in a highly efficient way and considerably cuts costs due to its exclusive design, which places it inside the ship. It is suitable for offshore and onshore installations and for the improvement of the quality of oil and produced water. This trusted technology was delivered to more than 40 clients over the last 15 years.
