Port of Long Beach CEO Mario Cordero (right, with STAX Engineering COO John Holmes, left, and STAX CEO Mike Walker) joined state air quality officials, members of the media and San Pedro Bay ports complex colleagues for a Carbon Capture Showcase tour on Wednesday. At Piers B & F, engineering firms STAX and Seabound demonstrated their state-of-the-art harbor craft that captures emissions – like nitrogen oxides and diesel particulates – from vessels at berth that cannot connect to shore power. STAX has six air emissions capture and control barges locally within the San Pedro Bay ports (including three under construction), plus two working in other California ports and they plan to add three in the near future. Finding diverse ways to reduce emissions is key to the Port’s “leading green” efforts. #EarthMonth #LeadingGreen #GreenPort20years #PortofLongBeach
