Canada-based Marine Exhaust Solutions (MES), developer of exhaust gas cleaning systems, has created a partnership with Nantong Ocean Ship Equipment Co. Ltd. (NOSE) to develop and demonstrate the MES EcoSilencer marine seawater scrubbing system for ships at a test facility in China.

Once tested, the companies plan to market the product across Europe, North America and the rest of Asia. 

MES developed the first exhaust cleaning system specifically designed for sulphur reduction on marine diesel engines, according to a company statement. Over the past 12 years, the company has been occupied with the research, development and commercialization of its proprietary technology, known as the MES EcoSilencer.
