Section 1 General

1.1 Scope

1.1.1 The requirements of this Chapter apply to equipment fitted to combustion machinery in order to reduce emissions produced by the combustion of fuel. Such equipment is hereinafter referred to as emissions abatement plant. These requirements are intended to ensure that the emissions abatement plant is safe to operate and maintain and, additionally, where the combustion machinery provides power for Mobility and/or Ship Type systems, that failure of the emissions abatement plant does not result in an unacceptable loss or degradation of those systems. These requirements do not provide for the reliability or redundancy necessary to ensure continued operation of the emissions abatement plant, and thereby compliance with relevant emissions requirements, following failure of any equipment associated with the emissions abatement plant.
