May 11, 2021

Despite of recycling various things annually, most of the countries are being repeatedly asked about the environmental impact of doing such kind of activities. Each and everything that reaches at their end of life and vessels or ships itself are being recycled and reused, which adds to the sustainability of our natural resources.

Here in this blog we are going to talk about the meaningful facts about green ship recycling that contribute towards environment.

· Boost the local economy: With the help of ship recycling, we get access to huge market for second hand goods like furniture, machinery, electrical equipment, hardware items and more. We can say that it supports the concept of industrial Ecology as the output that we receive from ship recycling are being utilized as inputs to the small scale industries in our country. In addition to this, the steel re-rolling mills and steel melting Mills utilize the ferrous scrap that they receive from end of life ships and they then use it to produce steel items such as bars, pipes, plates and more.

· Reduction in the greenhouse gas emissions: One of the positive effects of utilizing the metal scrap obtained from the end of life ships is in terms of reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. The reduction in emissions has occurred due to the less energy consumption in steel making industry. In addition to this, the need for metal mining has also been reduced which further adds to the reduction of greenhouse gases.

· Recovery of the metal scrap: The end of life ships provides us with the metal scrap which is both ferrous and non-ferrous. The ferrous scrap is then distinguished into two ways, that is, re-rollable scrap and melting scrap. In India, a total of about 55 to 60% of the total scrap that we receive from the end of life ships are obtained in the form of re-rollable scrap. It includes plates, angle bar, beams and grinders. These are then sold at a premium to the steel industries.

· Reduced pollution: The steel scrap that is obtained from the end of life ships also helps in reducing air and water pollution. On the other hand, it also helps in reducing the water consumption. These reductions that occur due to the fact that very little resources are needed for producing the products from ferrous scrap as compared to the metal ore. If we talk about the reductions in the scientific manner, then we can say that 86% less air pollution, 77% less water pollution and 40% less in the water consumption. It has become possible only because of green ship recycling.
