STAX Engineering Partners with Hyundai GLOVIS to Offer Emissions Capture and Control Services
May 21 2024 - 12:00PM
STAX Engineering, a pioneer in maritime emissions capture and
control, is proud to announce an agreement with Hyundai GLOVIS, one
of the largest operators of vehicle transports. The agreement will
bring STAX’s cutting-edge services to all GLOVIS auto carriers at
the ports of Benicia, Los Angeles/Long Beach, & Hueneme. This
is the fifth such agreement STAX has made in just 10 weeks.
GLOVIS is one of the largest OEM logistics providers nationally.
The company has processed over 1 million automobiles in the United
States since 2002.
STAX, a grantee of the California Air Resources Board (CARB), is
the only provider authorized to service both container vessels and
auto carriers in California; service for auto carriers began in
early April 2024 and is available everywhere STAX has a presence.
This is the second announcement of an automobile shipping leader
partnering with STAX in the last month. In April, STAX announced
its work with AMPORTS at the Port of Benicia.
As a readily available and environmentally friendly option, STAX
offers land- and barge-based, mobile emissions capture and control
technology to shipping terminal and fleet operators for a nominal
hourly fee. STAX's patented, flexible exhaust capture system is
designed to fit all ships without modification, even in the most
congested ports. The exhaust is filtered once it is captured and
funneled into the STAX system. STAX removes 99% of particulate
matter (PM) and 95% of oxides of nitrogen (NOx) before being
released as purified gas. To date, STAX has treated at-berth
vessels for a cumulative of 3,200 hours and 23 tons of pollutants
controlled—and counting.
“Our continued momentum in bringing point-of-capture emissions
reductions is in part thanks to our partners' eagerness to curb
their emissions,” says Mike Walker, Chief Executive Officer, STAX.
“We take pride in providing port communities affordable and
accessible emissions capture and control services. Our work with
auto carriers like GLOVIS is just the beginning of our expansion
across the U.S. and the rest of the world.”
