Scrubber waste is corrosive. We have seen recent incidents on the underwater hull, where within 6-to-9 months after the installation of an open loop scrubber, mild to extreme corrosion of the overboard distance piece or in its immediate vicinity had resulted in water ingress into areas such as the engine room, ballast tanks, void spaces and cargo holds. Furthermore we find a lot of deterioration on Propellers, Anodes and the Hull in the Aft section behind the Scrubber outlets.
