Abstract
A control device for a scrubber includes a converter which calculates a minimum amount of seawater: a minimum amount of seawater necessary for an absorption reaction of the sulfur oxide by the seawater, from an engine output and a sulfur content of fuel oil; another converter which calculates a corrected amount of seawater: an amount of seawater at which the sulfur oxide in the exhaust gas discharged from the scrubber is equal to or less than a set value; a summing element which calculates a set amount of seawater by summing the minimum amount and corrected amount of seawater; a pump control device which implements control such that seawater corresponding to the set amount is supplied to the scrubber; and an alkalinity setting device which sets the alkalinity of the seawater in accordance with traveled waters. The amount of seawater supplied to the scrubber is adjusted based on the alkalinity.
