Abstract & Executive SummaryCutting-edge environmental compliance analysis: How novel biochemical technologies fulfill MARPOL Annex VI decarbonization mandates.
## Decarbonization Mandates under IMO 2030 / 2050
The International Maritime Organization has enacted strict decarbonization trajectories under MARPOL Annex VI, mandating substantial reductions in Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) and Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI). In response, marine biotechnology—specifically Micro Fluidic Microbial Fuel Cells—presents a breakthrough for auxiliary power generation on long-voyage bulk carriers.
