  • World Alliance Member
  • Featured Solution
  • Labelled Solution
Label Date November 27, 2019
From United States
Maturity stage TRL 6 / 7 - Prototype demonstration 1:1

The technology effectively eliminates Bernoulli effect (Eliminating cavitation and the precavitational state). This is a breakthrough in fluid dynamics and as such applies to both air movement and water movement. SolidWater™ effectively eliminates Bernoulli effect (Eliminating cavitation and the precavitational state), this is a breakthrough in fluid dynamics and as such applies to both air movement and water movement. The solution not only reduces fuel use (by a factor of five) but extend range, improves manoeuvrability, reduces noise and lowers ship construction costs. Outfitting all tankers (VLCC class) with SolidWater™ Ship Propeller would be the same as removing 9,000 times all the cars in the world from the roads.

The Environmental Benefits

  • Reduce CO2 emission by 44%, NOx by 75% and SOx by 2.6% when fully implemented

The Financial Benefits
