Itelyum presents Eco Trieste, hybrid propulsion unit for naval waste collection
The largest (at the moment) hybrid propulsion nautical unit, flying the Italian flag, for the collection, on a national scale, of waste produced by ships has been launched in Trieste.
Itelyum sea Fvg has launched Eco-Trieste, a large hybrid vessel for collecting waste from ships in Italian ports. The 24m-long, 8m-wide vessel has a 60-tonne capacity and 120 cubic meters of storage space divided into four compartments. It will operate in the ports of Trieste and Monfalcone under a concession granted by the Autorità di sistema portuale del Mare Adriatico orientale. The vessel features hybrid propulsion, allowing it to run on electric power in internal navigation and thermal/hybrid mode with biofuel.
