Changxing Shipyard successfully reconstructed 230,000 tons of large bulk carrier ballast water system

        The "Tom Value" and "Pilbra" rounds sailed smoothly with the sound of a whistle. This marks that China Shipping Industry (Shanghai Changxing) Co., Ltd. has the ability to complete the renovation project of 230,000 tons of large bulk cargo ballast water system, and successfully took the first step in the project.

       With the continuous development and progress of the world, countries have continuously strengthened their awareness of environmental protection. Effective killing of algae, bacteria and other organisms in ship's ballast water to prevent the invasion of alien species caused by ship discharge of ballast water, environmental pollution caused by the spread of pathogens and human health. Many shipping companies are currently planning to carry out Modification of ballast water systems.

       With the gradual implementation of the International Maritime Organization's Ballast Water Management Convention, ship routes that have been modified according to standards will not be restricted by waters, thereby increasing operational efficiency. At present, ballast water treatment devices used in the world include photocatalysis, electrocatalysis, ozone sterilization, electrolysis seawater and deoxidation treatment. The Changxing Shipyard has transformed the ozone sterilization device, and it is the first time the plant has undertaken such a project. The ballast water system consists of nearly 14 sets of modules, which are installed between the steering gear and the engine room. The pipeline is more than 1,100 meters long and runs through the steering gear and the engine room. It has certain construction difficulties. The Emeishan Department and the ship's service provider have conducted many communicationes. With the full cooperation of the Emeishan and the Inner Engineering Department, the construction plan was formulated and a daily construction site meeting was arranged to coordinate the coordination and cooperation between the various types of work. The construction plan of the day solves various problems reflected in the on-site construction, repeatedly digests the drawings, locates the line on site, and cooperates with the service provider to modify the construction on site. After everyone's joint efforts, the construction department cooperates vigorously, continuous construction, and finally according to the requirements. Completed the task.

       Afterwards, Emeishan Department carefully summarized the project, accumulated experience to improve the shortcomings in the construction process, created conditions for undertaking similar projects in the future, further expanded the scope of ship repair business, and made greater contributions to the ship repair business of Changxing Shipyard.
