Clean
Air Engineering – Maritime (CAE-M), based in San Pedro, California, will
operate a barge with an exhaust after treatment system, the Marine Exhaust

CAE-M systems remove diesel emissions
from the auxiliary engines and boilers of oceangoing vessels while at berth or
at anchor.
The
26-metre-long, 13-metre-wide ship is designed by Fassmer Technical Projects and
currently under construction at the US shipyard Greenbrier Companies in Portland.
