The maritime industry has historically faced significant environmental and regulatory pressures due to the need to effectively dispose of ship generated waste and by-products, posing a potential hazard to oceans, marine ecosystems and human health. In a response to stringent waste management requirements set by authorities globally, operators of commercial ships, cruise vessels and yachts, are actively deploying onboard incinerators. With the number of onboard incinerators installations poised to hit significant milestones by end of decade, this revolution heralds substantial implications for ocean-faring giants struggling to sustain green credentials. So, in pursuit of clean cruising, maritime actors are scrambling onto the innovative sail of environmentally resilient waste eradication.
