    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT HOLLAND AMERICA LINE’S SEAWATER SCRUBBING TECHNOLOGY DEMONSTRATION PROJECT What is seawater scrubbing? Seawater scrubbing is a technology that has been used successfully for many years at land-based, oil- and coal-fired power plants to reduce emissions of sulfur dioxide and particulate matter. It is simple technology that uses the natural chemistry of seawater to neutralize the acidic emissions and capture particulates emitted from large engines. While this technology has been used ashore for many years, it is just now being considered as a potentially viable method to treat emissions from diesel engines on large, ocean-going vessels. Why is HAL investing in this sea water scrubber technology demonstration project? This innovative project is intended to demonstrate how seawater scrubbing can be used on large oceangoing vessels. We will attempt to determine whether this technology can be successfully designed, installed and operated within the tight confines of a vessel, and ultimately whether it could be retrofitted onto existing vessels, or built on-board new ships. Holland America Line is committed to environmental protection and we believe in being proactive in solving environmental issues. We are extremely proud to be working to develop this technology in the maritime industry and understand that it is important to collaborate with key partners to find practical and cost effective solutions that solve today's global environmental challenges. Where and when will this technology demonstration project take place? In April 2007, HAL will install a sea water scrubber in the stack of one of five diesel generators on the ms Zaandam when she is in drydock.

  • This Is a Daily Compilation of Media Articles Concerning the Covid-19 Impact to the Global Cruise Industry
    1 THIS IS A DAILY COMPILATION OF MEDIA ARTICLES CONCERNING THE COVID-19 IMPACT TO THE GLOBAL CRUISE INDUSTRY. Please note this isn’t a complete listing of media articles but a snapshot only. 29 March, 2020: PASSENGERS TRANSFERRED FROM VIRUS-STRICKEN CRUISE SHIP OFF PANAMA Passengers on a virus-stricken cruise liner stranded off Central America were transferred to another ship Saturday, after the US-bound vessel was given permission to pass through the Panama Canal. The Zaandam had been stuck in the Pacific Ocean since March 14 after dozens of the 1,800 people on board reported flu-like symptoms and several South American ports refused to let it dock. The ship's Dutch owner Holland America said Friday four passengers had died and two more had tested positive for COVID- 19. Panama on Saturday reversed its decision to block the Zaandam from its canal, and said it would be allowed to pass "to provide humanitarian help." Another ship, the Rotterdam, has since arrived off the coast of Panama from San Diego carrying food, medical staff, testing kits, medicine and food for the beleaguered vessel. Passengers showing no signs of the virus were ferried from the Zaandam to the Rotterdam on Saturday, a French tourist told AFP by telephone. "It's like emptying a bathtub with a teaspoon," she said. "The boats can hold about 100 people, and they are putting about half in at a time. That's why it's going slowly." The Zaandam cruise liner left Buenos Aires on March 7 and was supposed to arrive two weeks later at San Antonio, near Santiago in Chile.

The Holland America Line vessel, the Zaandam, passed through the Panama Canal overnight as the company searched for a port that will allow passengers to disembark. “We view this as a big, big problem and we do not want to see people dumped in southern Florida right now,” Florida Governor Ron DeSantis told Fox News. “We cannot afford to have people who are not even Floridians dumped into South Florida,” he said. “I’m in contact with the White House on this.” Read more… https://www.scmp.com/news/world/united-states-canada/article/3077660/coronavirus-dont-dump- sick-cruise-ship-passengers 31 March, 2020: 'UNACCEPTABLE': FLORIDA OFFICIALS DEBATE LETTING HOLLAND AMERICA SHIPS DOCK WITH ILL PASSENGERS Holland America's MS Zaandam and MS Rotterdam cruise ships – one with ill people on board – have crossed the Panama Canal and are headed to Florida.
