Ship Recycling Practice and Annual Reusable Material Output from Bangladesh Ship Recycling Industry

Khandakar Akhter Hossain

Ships are valuable and their materials are useable and have always been recycled. Ship recycling is an engineering process of dismantling obsolete ship to collect useable materials. There are few dozen operational ship-recycling yards located along coastal belt at Chittagong of Bangladesh. The beaching method is the most common ship demolition today, make it difficult to ensure proper safety and to contain and manage pollutants. Most of the local ship recycling yards neither have good containment to prevent pollution of soil, air, marine and freshwater resources, nor follow the appropriate technology to ensure the environmentally safe management and disposal of hazardous wastes and materials. The objectives of this research paper are to identify and analyze the present ship recycling practices in Bangladesh and evaluate the status in respect of national and international rules and regulation. Average 2000000 Metric Ton of different types of obsolete ships are recycled annually in different yards in Bangladesh. There is average 1,833,461 MT reusable materials that has been produced annually in ship recycling industry of Bangladesh.
