Abstract

Nowadays, the number of emission across the globe are very concerning to the people that living in earth including us. The emission can come from various sources such as transporttation, industries, and also ship that can emit pollutants such as air pollution. There are already some efforts to reduce emission comes from the ships, both regulatory and industries initiatives such as using cleaner fuels. Technological development also support the reduction of emission come from the ships such as putting scrubber on to the ships. The technology also driving the progress to increase the efficiency of the ships. One of the factors that can affects the ship’s efficiency is frictional resistance. The frictional resistance of the ship is also affected by several things such as the hull design. Frictional resistance can be reduce by narrow down the total area that make contact with water (wetted surface area). This idea of narrow down the wetted surface area initiate a breakthrogh namely Air Lubrication System. Air Lubrication System utilize the thin layer of air to prevent water to make contact with ship’s hull. Due to that the ship’s hull does not get the friction from the water but from the air which have less density than water. Using this concept and idea it is expected to reduce the frictional resistance and improve the ship’s efficiency. By making the ships more efficient not only better for the fuel economy, but also for ship’s emissions.
