Danfoss IXA is part of the Danfoss Group and the Danfoss products can be found everywhere on the ship ensuring improved efficiency, safety and reliability.
We work in the challenging world of the marine industry, where a ship owner demands that a supplier contributes to improving efficiency, safety and reliability while reducing total cost of ownership. Danfoss is a single supplier who delivers on all these criteria and more.
For over 30 years we have been building and consolidating successful relationships with ship owner-operators, shipyards, system integrators, OEMs Naval design engineers and architects to make the marine industry safer and more efficient. Represented in all major marine hubs with full marine certification and global service, Danfoss is committed to creating a sustainable, competitive future for the marine industry.
At Danfoss IXA, we develop sensors and systems for the maritime industry, solving energy optimization and measurement of emission gases. Our sensor products are based on patented technology and are ideally suited for the global focus on energy efficiency and the environment.
Our products are designed for the maritime environment, and they are extremely robust and can precisely and continuously measure climate parameters and environmentally harmful gases and thereby provide valuable input for energy optimization.
Our latest product innovative sensor product, the MES 1001, continuously measures NOx, SO2 and NH3 indirectly (in situ) in the exhaust system. The sensor enables ship owners to monitor and document compliance with local and international emission regulations. Furthermore, the sensor enables dynamic engine control, closed feedback loop for control of SCR after-treatment systems, and documentation of fuel shifting. The widely tested robust sensor meets IMO's requirements and reimagines emission monitoring technology with a path breaking approach. The user-friendly, maintenance-free, auto-calibrated sensor monitors emissions with data easily accessible. We envision the sensor to be an industry standard in the years to come.

GTT (Gaztransport & Technigaz) is the designer of containment systems with cryogenic membranes used to transport and store liquefied gas, and in particular, LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas). For over 50 years, GTT has been designing and offering to its customers technologies which allow them to optimise storage space and reduce the construction and operating costs of ships or tanks equipped with these systems.
GTT has also adapted its technologies to be able to cover new markets, including the use of LNG as a fuel for vessel propulsion (and associated bunkering) and the development of small or medium size marine and river LNG carriers.
The membrane technologies of GTT follow IGC code recommendations. These technologies are approved by classification societies (ABS, BV, Class NK, DNV GL, KR, Lloyds Register, etc).
GTT has licensed its membrane technologies to leading shipyards worldwide. These shipyards use the GTT’s technologies for the construction of ships for the transport or storage of LNG and other types of gas. The purchasers of vessels equipped with the GTT technologies are major gas companies and ship-owners which place orders for vessels based on the requirements of the major gas companies. GTT also have licensees, known as outfitters, which can offer technical assistance to non-licensed shipyards in the installation of GTT membrane systems. Besides the licensing of its technologies, GTT provides human support to its system users all along the pre- and post-construction process: design offices carry out detailed engineering plans, allowing the membrane installation for LNG carriers and onshore storage. GTT provides maintenance support all along the vessels life with a team of dedicated specialists.
GTT is listed on Euronext Paris, Compartment A (ISIN FR0011726835 Euronext Paris: GTT) and is notably included in SBF 120 and MSCI Small Cap indices.

Wuhan Lotusfairy Power Technologies Corp (LF) is formerly known as Zhangjiakou Baitong Environment-protecting Technology Co., Ltd. Our company has specialized in the research, development and production of diesel post-processing system as well as the vehicle transformation. The history of our company can trace back to Great Lakes Technologies, PLC, Lantian Technologies Inc. and Lotusfairy Technologies Inc. founded by those American and Canadian scientists. They are also the pioneers devoted to researching the vehicle-equipped SCR DeNOx system. The original technical team of LF has the technical background in three aspects, namely the automotive engine, vehicle and post-processing technology (1), the electronic control, electronic communication and embedded system (2) as well as aircraft engine and new energy (3).

As early as the middle 1990s, the American-Taiwanese doctor Wu Jingxiong who is a famous gas chromatographic chemist had engaged in the research on vehicle-equipped urea injection system. He founded Great Lakes Technologies. PLC, among others, together with the doctor Cheng Shumin and Guo Jinduan. Since then, they had initiated the research into the DeNox system. In 1998, they developed the early-stage urea metering pump and urea injection system, which were launched and demonstrated in Detroit successfully. The doctor Li Ping who is a Canadian-Chinese scientist on aircraft engine joined their team in 2012 and began to research the DCU controller. With the support of Liu Wenyu, Ding Feng and Jin Youchun who are the experts on electronic communication and control, they succeeded in developing the first-generation DCU in 2005.

In 2004, the doctor Li Ping began to seek investment in China so as to introduce the technology in China for commercial operation. After reaching an agreement with Zhangjiakou's State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission in 2005, they founded the first joint venture in China aimed at developing and producing the whole set of diesel post-processing system in 2006. The company is known as Zhangjiakou Baitong Environment-protecting Technology Co., Ltd. They formed a partnership with Yuchai in 2007 and Dongfeng in 2008. After developing the urea nozzle, they moved the company to Wuhan in 2009. In 2010, the company cooperated with Shiyan Paswall Exhaust System Co., Ltd which is the silencer supplier for Dongfeng to serve as a major supplier for Dongfeng. In 2011, Wuhan Lotusfairy Power Technologies Corp (LF) was officially established.
