Produktbeschreibung

Ship breaking and recycling is a reverse engineering process of shipbuilding, where the end-of-life (EOL) ships are dismantled to recover reusable materials in a safe and environmental friendly way. Until 1960s, ship recycling activity was concentrated in industrialized countries. But from early 1980s, ship owner's sent their old ship to the scrap-yards of India, China, Pakistan, Bangladesh, etc; where health and safety standards are nominal and workers are desperate for work. There are few dozen ship-recycling yards located along coastal belt at Chittagong of Bangladesh. Average 200 in number and 2000000 LDT different types and sizes of obsolete ships are recycled annually in local yards of Bangladesh. This industry provides country's main source of steel, creates opportunity of employment, generates revenues for government and contributes to the local shipbuilding industry. The beaching method is widely applied in the local ship recycling by using semi-skilled and unskilled labor in Bangladesh.
