Abstract
Expensive large-scale ballast water treatment system and method developed for marine structures to protect marine environment and ecosystem against alien species and pathogens that are included in the number of ship ballasts that are used more than 10 billion tons per year and are spread to other ecosystems. The cost of installing the ballast water treatment system was reduced, and the weight of offshore structures, power consumption, and installation space were saved.
Description
The present invention relates to an integrated ballast water treatment device for a semi league that can easily process microorganisms that grow in ballast water used in a semi league.
If the ship is not loaded with enough cargo during operation, the propeller and rudder may not work effectively in the water and may work out of the water. Therefore, in order to maintain the equilibrium of the ship and to provide the optimum speed and efficiency, the seawater is filled in the ballast tank in the ship to maintain the proper draft.
At this time, the seawater filled in the ballast tank is called ballast water, and serves to maintain the balance and stability of the vessel.
The ballast water is placed on board before leaving the loading port and discharged offboard the ship before entering the loading port or loading the cargo. Therefore, the ballast water is continuously injected and discharged in the process of loading and discharging cargo on the ship, and the ballast water moves with the ship.
The ballast water is supplied by a pump or the like and stored in a closed compartment inside the ship. At this time, the ballast water contains various microorganisms such as plankton, bacteria and other aquatic organisms that live in the water supply area, and when the ballast water is discharged to coasts and harbors near the loading port, the ecosystem of the surrounding sea is disturbed. You will be tongued.
In addition, since the ballast water is kept closed and lightless for a long period of time, the amount of dissolved oxygen is lowered, and the discharge of the ballast water in the empty oxygen state adversely affects the living organisms in the surrounding sea area. .
In addition, if the ballast water is discharged to foreign ports, etc. and acts as a passage for 'unwanted harmful aquatic organisms', it not only destroys the indigenous marine ecosystem but also threatens the health by influx of pathogens and toxic organisms. It can also be quite expensive to process exotic species.
As the damage caused by ship ballast water spreads, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) recognizes this seriousness, adopts the International Convention on Ship Ballast Water and Sediment Management, and applies ballast water exchange standards from 2011. Mandatory to install Ballast Water Treatment equipment in offshore floating vessels such as Semi-Rig, and after 2017, all vessels satisfy the ballast water treatment standards established by IMO. Installation will be mandatory.
In general, there are three ways to reduce the influx of foreign marine species introduced through ballast water.
First, the ballast water is exchanged at sea before entering a specific port. This is a highly available method because it is possible to simplify the ballast system because it is possible only to have a seawater inflow and discharge configuration for exchanging ballast water.
However, since this method is carried out in the sea area of the exchange place far from the land, the coarse waves exist and the water pressure of seawater is higher than that of the land coast, which increases the longitudinal bending moment of the ship during the ballast water movement. . As a result, the hull deformation occurs, the hull posture anxiety in the ballast water exchange process, etc., the problem that it is difficult to secure the safety of the ship during the replacement process.
Second, ballast reception facilities and treatment facilities are installed and operated on the coast or on land. This is because the ship does not need to install a separate treatment device, the maintenance and risk of the ship is low in recent years.
However, the costs and complaints associated with the installation and operation of a large capacity facility may be incurred, and there is still a lack of useful devices, and research is being actively conducted.
Third, ballast water treatment facilities are installed on ships. This mandates the installation of such treatment facilities in the IMO Convention.
However, it is expensive to install the ballast water treatment device, and may cause loss of space, weight control, and power consumption for the treatment device.
On the other hand, ships equipped with various drilling equipments for drilling oil or gas existing in the basement of the seabed are rig ships or floating crude oil production storage and unloading facilities (for exclusive use of conventional seabed drilling). Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) and drillships that have been recently developed and used for offshore drilling.
Rig ships or FPSOs dedicated to subsea drilling can only be sailed by other tugboats, and mooring devices are used for subsea drilling, anchored at a point on the sea, and drillships have been recently developed and advanced drilling equipment. It is manufactured in the same form as a general ship so that it can be sailed by its own power.
By the way, the ballast water treatment methods as described above generate a lot of inefficient aspects to be applied to the semi-league that stays in a certain place for a long time, not a normal ship.
Therefore, the technology for the treatment of optimized ballast water in consideration of the operational characteristics of the semi-league ballast water while satisfying the IMO International Convention has been actively studied.
The present invention has been invented in view of the above circumstances, and by inventing an optimized ballast water treatment apparatus in consideration of the characteristics of ballast water operation of a semi-league, a separate device for treating ballast water is not required, The purpose of the device alone is to meet the criteria of the IMO Convention, to minimize installation space and power consumption, and to reduce costs.
According to an aspect of the present invention for achieving the above object, in the semi-lead ballast water treatment apparatus formed by installing a plurality of columns in the pontoons, drilling equipment is installed on the upper deck connecting the columns, the

According to the present invention, by inventing an optimized semi-lead dedicated ballast water treatment device in consideration of the characteristics of the ballast water operation of the semi-lead, there is no need for a separate device for treating the ballast water, or by using a small device. In order to meet the standards, it is possible to reduce the installation cost of the ballast water treatment system, minimize the installation space and power consumption, and prevent marine pollution.
In addition, new semi-leagues as well as existing semi-leagues can be treated with microorganisms in the ballast water with minimal design changes.
In addition, by installing the active material storage container inside the ballast tank installed in the hull (hull) of the semi-lead can increase the space utilization of the semi-lead upper deck.

Figure 2 is a side cross-sectional view schematically showing a semi-lead equipped with an integrated ballast water treatment device for a semi-lead according to the present invention.
Figure 3 is a side cross-sectional view schematically showing the supply of the active material using a barge to the active material storage container of the integrated ballast water treatment device for a semi-lead according to the present invention.
Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in detail the configuration and operation of the preferred embodiment of the present invention. In the drawings, like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout. The same reference numerals in the drawings denote like elements throughout the drawings.
Since general ships move from port A to port B, the inflow and discharge of ballast water is always required, and at this time, the ballast water is used by inflowing seawater near the port where cargo is unloaded.
Substances included in these ballast waters include solids, mud, plankton-scale organisms, and micro-organisms, and ballast water treatment processes are key to sterilization of plankton and micro-microorganisms.
However, incorporation of large-scale living organisms and non-living organisms such as solids and muds greatly reduces the treatment efficiency of ballast water treatment. Therefore, in the ballast water treatment process in general ships, a filtration pretreatment system for removing large foreign substances such as the above, or hydrocyclone for removing aggregates, sediments, sludge, etc. from the ballast water, etc. Additional equipment will be needed.
Semi-lead (100, Floating Production Storage and Offloading) to which the present invention is applied, unlike a regular ship, there is no frequent movement from port A to port B and is fixed in the ocean for a long time, thus treating the ballast water like a normal ship. There is no need to use the equipment at all times.
In addition, the ballast number of the semi-league is free of large foreign matter such as solids and mud included in the ballast number of the general ship.
Therefore, it is not necessary to install all the various equipment for the ballast water treatment installed in a general ship, and devised the present invention in view of this point.
In general, there are two methods of treating ballast water in ships: physical treatment and chemical treatment.
Physical treatments include ultraviolet radiation, heating, ultrasonics, and chemical treatments such as chlorine, chlorine dioxide, ozone, hydrogen peroxide and many other organic chemicals.
Among the physical treatment methods, the ultraviolet irradiation method is inexpensive, and the device is simple, but the wavelength is short, the transmission power is weak, the variation and survival of the species may occur, and the efficiency may be reduced in the turbid water quality.
In addition, the heating method does not require the pretreatment, there is an advantage that can use the waste heat of the ship, but it is difficult to maintain a constant temperature, need continuous management during navigation, there is a concern of secondary pollution of the ocean by the discharge of hot water.
Therefore, in the present invention, a simple device for the treatment of ballast water is installed in a ballast tank installed inside the hull of the semi-league, and the chemical treatment method of the ballast water is applied to the device appropriately for the semi-lead. Solved them.
