    WASTEWATER FROM SHIPYARDS

    NARCIZA TOPOR

    Abstract. Oil lost and discharged represents a direct and significant pollution threat for

    marine life as well as industries, which depend on clean water and shore, notably tourism, fishingand aquaculture.

    Oil is used by the population at large and enters the marine and coastal environment notonly direct, as in shipping, oil drilling etc. but also as final sink from a large variety of hinterland uses.

    The wastewater from shipyard operations like vessel cleaning, operations, solventcleaning and degreasing operations including fugitive emissions will generate significantquantities thus making it imperative on part of environmental managers to minimize the resulting

    water pollution. For better management of wastewater, it is important to know the characteristicsof wastewater

    Keywords: wastewater, wastewater stream, wastewater concentrations, specific pollutants,

    effluent quality, influent characteristics, treatment capacity, treatment efficiency.

    1. Introduction

    The impact of the pollutant depends on type of oil, sensitivity of the area

    (e.g. salt marsh damage may be almost irreversible, while a rocky shore may be

    hosed down with relatively quick and satisfactory recovery), weather and how

    the pollution is tackled. This variability makes oil as state indicator prone to

    argument and highlights the need for controlling the handling of oil and

    avoiding loss or illegitimate disposal.

    The shipyard industry generates significant quantities of wastewater from

    various operations. Some of the major operations that generate wastewater are

    vessel cleaning operations, water used for cleaning the equipment, and waterused in the processes. Efficient management of shipyard wastewater requires

    understanding of specific pollutants present and their concentrations.

    Integration of environmental plans minimizes duplication and encourages

    coordination between safety and health, emergency response, and environmental disciplines.

    Most of the management techniques like source reduction, waste minimization,

    control, treatment etc. can be effectively utilized once the composition of the

    Department of Physics, The Ovidius University of Constana, Constana, 900, Romania.

    waste stream is known. This paper is the compilation of the knowledge acquired

    through the shipyard interaction.

    2. International conventions and agreements

    Worldwide the MARPOL 73/78 Annex 1 Regulation for the Prevention

    of Pollution by Oil applies. This is concerned with vessels and harbours only.

    Other conventions and agreements cover specific areas and include land-based

    sources e.g.

    OSPARCOM for the North-East Atlantic, the Mediterranean Blue Plan,Odessa Declaration, Black Sea Action Plan. EU law: tries to control oil pollution in

    three ways: 1. by limiting the pollutant discharge such as Dangerous Substances

    Directive 76/464/EEC, Barcelona Convention concluded on behalf of the EU by

    Council Decision 77/585/EEC and approval of the oil pollution control protocol of

    1/420/EEC; 2. by setting receiving water standards (eg. bathing water 76/160/EEC,

    shellfish water 79/923/EEC) and 3. Management, practise include emergency and

    information such as Directive 93/75/EEC on minimum requirements for vessels

    bound for or leaving EU ports and carrying dangerous or polluting goods, the North

    Sea decision 84/358/EEC approving the Bonn Agreement to ensure active

    cooperation between riparian states in case of pollution incidents and its equivalent

    for other seas. Decision 86/85/EEC sets up an information system on oil spills.

    A EU Directive on oil reception facilities is being prepared.

    3. Wastewater characterization based on process knowledge and

    wastewater analysis

    Characterization forms basis for managing the shipyard wastewater and to

    improve the existing practices.

    In order to design onsite wastewater treatment systems, we must consider the

    nature of the wastewater because the effluent quality depends upon the influent

    characteristics. The treatment capacity and treatment efficiency of systems are

    calculated based upon the influent concentrations and the effluent requirements.

    Efficiency = [(C in Cout )/Cin ] 100

    Where: Cin = Influent concentration (typically mg/l)

    Cout = Effluent concentration (typically mg/l)

    And Efficiency is expressed as a percentage (%)

    WASTEWATER FROM SHIPYARDS 33

    Also, the treatment capacity over time for biochemical processes is

    usually modelled as a first-order equation such that

    Ct/C0 = e kt

    Where: Ct = Concentration at time, t (typically in mg/l)

    C0 = Initial concentration at time = 0 (typically in mg/l)

    k = reaction rate constant (typically in days1)

    t = time (typically in days)

    By exercising the characterization process, the constituents of the wastewater

    stream and their concentrations are known. Wastewater characterization can be

    done by looking into the processes and also, by sampling. Process knowledge helps

    in estimating roughly various pollutants by analysis of the raw materials going into

    the process. Also, the evaluation of various operations can help in understanding the

    possible pollutants that are coming out of the operations. Sampling is done to know

    the exact composition of the wastewater stream and the concentrations. The various

    processes and/or operations that contribute to the wastewater have been given in the

    following sections.

    3.1. Vessel Cleaning Operations

    The vessel cleaning operations cover many different areas and include

    those operations as tank washing operations, pipeline cleaning operations,

    mucking operations, chemical cleaning, chemical spot washing, engine room

    cleaning, and others. The wastes associated with the vessel cleaning are actually

    generated when the ship is in use. The most common wastes from the vessel

    cleaning operations are the bilge wastes, which are a mixture of oil and fuel

    with water. Therefore, the pollutants/parameters include oil & grease, COD

    (Chemical Oxygen Demand), phenols, purgeable halocarbons and TSS (Total

    Suspended Solids).

    3.2. Pipeshop Operations

    The department of pipeshop in the shipyard is concerned with the

    testing of the pipes for leakages, cleaning of the pipes after installation and

    other related activities. The shop uses different types of solutions for

    cleaning the pipes which include some rust inhibitors. Some of the

    solutions include sodium hydroxide, sodium nitrite, sodium silicate, dry

    3

  • 7/31/2019 An_Fiz_2005_4

    4/13

    NARCIZA TOPOR34

    chlorine (granular), morpholine, hydrazine, potassium hydroxide, and

    others. The cleaning of the pipes is done to remove the rust and the scales

    formed inside the pipes. The rust and the scales contribute to the TSS

    component of the stream. Some of the cleaning solutions like sodium

    hydroxide, potassium hydroxide also affect the pH of the wastewater

    coming out of the operation.

    3.3. Operators Department

    Other major source of wastewater from the shipyard is the operatorsdepartment. The job of the operators is to run trial tests of the ship before

    handing over to the customer. The testing includes main engine testing,

    boiler testing, testing of cranes, refrigerators, automated controls etc. In the

    process of testing the ship, the department generates wastes like spent

    engine oil, cleansing solutions, spent lubricating oils and wash water. The

    pollutants/parameters include oil & grease, COD, phenols, purgeable

    halocarbons, and TSS. Solvent Cleaning and Degreasing Operations

    Degreasing operations also contribute to the wastewater generation in the

    shipyard. These operations are again sub-divided into other operations like

    wipe cleaning, soak cleaning, ultrasonic cleaning, diphase cleaning, steam

    gun stripping, vapor phase cleaning, mechanical cleaning, and others. The

    pollutants/parameters from these operations include oil & grease, COD,and purgeable halocarbons. Other contributors to the wastewater are processes

    like wet blasting (TSS being the pollutant), chemical stripping, and hydro

    blasting.

    There are other main streams of wastewater from the shipyard. They are

    sanitary wastewater and stormwater. The characteristics of sanitary wastewater

    are well known and need not be discussed in detail here. However, the

    stormwater characteristics may vary depending on the shops or operations

    located within the area of concern. The concentrations of pollutants from

    stormwater outfalls of a typical shipyard are given in Table 1.

    The above sections enumerate the different types of pollutants from the

    processes and/or operations in the shipyard. Sometimes, the wastewater streams

    include heavy metals as pollutants. Some processes generate liquid wastes,

    which require handling as either solid or hazardous waste. Great care has to be

    taken when heavy metals are present owing to their toxicity. Table 2 gives

    results of the analysis of pipe shop effluent. Though the concentrations may

    vary, Table 2 includes all the pollutants/parameters that may be encountered in

    the shipyard operations.

    issued by various agencies specify the discharge limits for various pollutants.

    Therefore, the control options and the treatment technologies adopted are in

    proportion to comply with the discharge limits outlined in the permits.

    4. Treatment

    The treatment of the wastewater is generally carried out on-site owing to

    substantial quantities generated. Treatment of wastewater involves preliminary

    treatment, primary treatment followed by secondary treatment. The secondary

    treatment can be chosen from two alternatives: biological treatment andphysico-chemical treatment. These treatment options have been discussed in the

    following sections.

    4.1. Biological Treatment

    Biological water treatment methods for the removal of heavy metals and

    other inorganic contaminants have grown in popularity during the last decade.

    Low costs and minimal sludge generation have convinced many environmental

    managers in the shipyard industry to experiment with biological systems. The

    key to successful implementation of biological water treatment is process

    control: specifically biological process control.Suspended solids in a shipyard wastewater can be of two types: settleable

    and non settleable. The non settleable particles can be colloidal and dissolved

    particles, both organic and inorganic.

    The organic biodegradable fraction can be removed using conventional

    biological treatment processes, while the inorganic colloidal solids need some

    form of flocculation to become settleable.

    A biological treatment plant is using biomass to convert pollution into

    water. Biological treatment is primarily aimed to reduce dissolved materials.

    Based on the wastewater characteristics of a typical shipyard, the

    following treatment processes are deemed necessary to obtain concentrations

    below discharge limits: preliminary treatment, primary treatment, secondary

    biological process, secondary settling, effluent filtration, adsorption of non

    biodegradable organics, final effluent disinfection and sludge treatment.

    4.1.1. Preliminary Treatment

    The objective of preliminary treatment is the removal of coarse solids and

    other large materials often found in raw wastewater. Removal of these materials

    6

  • 7/31/2019 An_Fiz_2005_4

    7/13

    WASTEWATER FROM SHIPYARDS 37

    is necessary to enhance the operation and maintenance of subsequent treatment

    units. Preliminary treatment operations typically, in a shipyard wastewater

    treatment plant, include coarse screening, grit removal. In shipyards grit would

    be composed of sand, metal chips, or other heavy discrete particles generated in

    metal surface preparation. In grit chambers, the velocity of the water through

    the chamber is maintained sufficiently high, or air is used, so as to prevent the

    settling of most organic solids. Grit removal is not included as a preliminary

    treatment step in most small wastewater treatment plants. Flow measurement

    devices, often standing-wave flumes, are always included at the preliminary

    treatment stage.

    4.1.2. Primary Treatment

    The objective of primary treatment is the removal of settleable organic

    and inorganic solids by sedimentation, and the removal of materials that will

    float (scum) by skimming. Approximately 25 to 50% of the incoming

    biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5), 50 to 70% of the total suspended solids

    (SS), and 65% of the oil and grease are removed during primary treatment.

    Some organic nitrogen, organic phosphorus, and heavy metals associated with

    solids are also removed during primary sedimentation but colloidal and

    dissolved constituents are not affected. The effluent from primary sedimentation

    units is referred to as primary effluent.Wastewater from barge cleaning, bilge wastes, process waters and

    sanitary wastewater have concentrations of oil and grease typically between 100

    and 150 mg/L. The general discharge limit for oil and grease is 15 mg/L. Hence,

    an oil-water separator is usually employed to separate out the oil from the

    wastewater. This separated oil can be sold to outside customers for use as fuel.

    4.1.3. Secondary Treatment

    The objective of secondary treatment is the further treatment of the

    effluent from primary treatment to remove the residual organics and suspended

    solids. In most cases, secondary treatment follows primary treatment and

    involves the removal of biodegradable dissolved and colloidal organic matter

    using aerobic biological treatment processes. Aerobic biological treatment is

    performed in the presence of oxygen by aerobic microorganisms (principally

    bacteria) that metabolize the organic matter in the wastewater, thereby

    producing more microorganisms and inorganic end-products (principally CO2,

    NH3, and H2O). Several aerobic biological processes are used for secondary

    7

  • 7/31/2019 An_Fiz_2005_4

    8/13

    NARCIZA TOPOR38

    treatment differing primarily in the manner in which oxygen is supplied to the

    microorganisms and in the rate at which organisms metabolize the organic matter.

    Biodegradable organics contained in shipyard wastewater can be easily

    removed using any of the conventional biological treatment processes or their

    combination. Several of the available alternatives, namely, suspended growth

    processes (conventional activated sludge, extended aeration) and fixed-film

    processes (trickling filters, rotating biological contactors, aerobic fluidized

    beds) could be selected.

    High-rate biological processes are characterized by relatively small

    reactor volumes and high concentrations of microorganisms compared with low

    rate processes. Consequently, the growth rate of new organisms is much greaterin high-rate systems because of the well controlled environment. The

    microorganisms must be separated from the treated wastewater by

    sedimentation to produce clarified secondary effluent. The sedimentation tanks

    used in secondary treatment, often referred to as secondary clarifiers, operate in

    the same basic manner as the primary clarifiers described previously. The

    biological solids removed during secondary sedimentation, called secondary or

    biological sludge, are normally combined with primary sludge for sludge

    processing.

    Common high-rate processes include the activated sludge processes,

    trickling filters or biofilters, oxidation ditches, and rotating biological contactors

    (RBC). A combination of two of these processes in series (e.g., biofilter

    followed by activated sludge) is sometimes used to treat municipal wastewatercontaining a high concentration of organic material from industrial sources.

    i The Activated Sludge Process

    In the activated sludge process, the dispersed-growth reactor is an

    aeration tank or basin containing a suspension of the wastewater and

    microorganisms, the mixed liquor. The contents of the aeration tank are mixed

    vigorously by aeration devices which also supply oxygen to the biological

    suspension. Aeration devices commonly used include submerged diffusers that

    release compressed air and mechanical surface aerators that introduce air by

    agitating the liquid surface. Hydraulic retention time in the aeration tanks

    usually ranges from 3 to 8 hours but can be higher with high BOD 5

    wastewaters. Following the aeration step, the microorganisms are separated

    from the liquid by sedimentation and the clarified liquid is secondary effluent.

    A portion of the biological sludge is recycled to the aeration basin to maintain a

    high mixed-liquor suspended solids (MLSS) level. The remainder is removed

    from the process and sent to sludge processing to maintain a relatively constant

    concentration of microorganisms in the system. Several variations of the basic

    activated sludge process, such as extended aeration and oxidation ditches, are in

    common use, but the principles are similar.

    8

    9/13

    WASTEWATER FROM SHIPYARDS 39

    The activated sludge process can be easily employed for treating shipyard

    wastewater as it does not occupy much space. The treatment process can be carried

    out in floating tanks placed on a barge. The complete mix system may require heating

    to enable proper temperature conditions for the microbes to work effectively.

    ii Trickling Filters

    A trickling filter or biofilter consists of a basin or tower filled with

    support media such as stones, plastic shapes, or wooden slats. Wastewater is

    applied intermittently, or sometimes continuously, over the media.

    Microorganisms become attached to the media and form a biological layer or

    fixed film. Organic matter in the wastewater diffuses into the film, where it ismetabolized. Oxygen is normally supplied to the film by the natural flow of air

    either up or down through the media, depending on the relative temperatures of

    the wastewater and ambient air. Forced air can also be supplied by blowers but

    this is rarely necessary. The thickness of the biofilm increases as new organisms

    grow. Periodically, portions of the film 'slough off the media. The sloughed

    material is separated from the liquid in a secondary clarifier and discharged to

    sludge processing. Clarified liquid from the secondary clarifier is the secondary

    effluent and a portion is often recycled to the biofilter to improve hydraulic

    distribution of the wastewater over the filter.

    The TF process efficiently treats industrial wastes having a high

    percentage of soluble, small molecule organic material, and readily removes

    suspended and colloidal organics by the combined process of flocculation,adsorption, and enzyme complexing (WEF, 1991). The versatility of trickling

    filters towards variations in the wastewater characteristics makes them useful

    for treating shipyard wastewater as the wastewater from various operations

    varies with factors like different types of vessels being cleaned, different kinds

    of processes being employed at times owing to their intermittent nature, and

    others. Also, the ability of TFs to treat low-strength streams can be utilized for

    treating shipyard wastewater.

    iii Rotating Biological Contactors

    Rotating biological contactors (RBCs) are fixed-film reactors similar to

    biofilters in that organisms are attached to support media. In the case of the

    RBC, the support media are slowly rotating discs that are partially submerged in

    flowing wastewater in the reactor. Oxygen is supplied to the attached biofilm

    from the air when the film is out of the water and from the liquid when

    submerged, since oxygen is transferred to the wastewater by surface turbulence

    created by the discs' rotation. Sloughed pieces of biofilm are removed in the

    same manner described for biofilters.

    NARCIZA TOPOR40

    4.1.4. Tertiary Treatment

    Tertiary and/or advanced wastewater treatment is employed when specific

    wastewater constituents which cannot be removed by secondary treatment must

    be removed. Individual treatment processes are necessary to remove nitrogen,

    phosphorus, additional suspended solids, refractory organics, heavy metals and

    dissolved solids. Because advanced treatment usually follows high-rate secondary

    treatment, it is sometimes referred to as tertiary treatment. However, advanced treatment

    processes are sometimes combined with primary or secondary treatment (e.g., chemical

    addition to primary clarifiers or aeration basins to remove phosphorus) or used

    in place of secondary treatment (e.g., overland flow treatment of primary effluent).As part of tertiary treatment, the treatment plant could have filtration to further

    remove suspended solids, and adsorption, to remove non biodegradable organic

    compounds that may be toxic to aquatic life. The filtration of effluents from

    wastewater treatment processes is a relatively recent practice (Metcalf & Eddy, 1991),

    used for achieving supplemental suspended solids removal from biological or

    chemical treatment processes. Carbon adsorption is an advanced wastewater

    treatment method used for the removal of refractory organic compounds as well as

    residual amounts of inorganic compounds such as nitrogen, sulfides, and heavy

    metals (Metcalf & Eddy, 1991). Filtration of effluents through granular activated

    carbon beds must be preceded by sand filtration to protect the carbon particles against

    significant pressure loss, channeling or blockages. If powdered activated carbon

    (PAC) is used, it is usually added to the activated sludge aeration basin, so thatbiological oxidation and physical adsorption occur simultaneously.

    4.2. Physico-chemical Treatment

    The main difference between the biological treatment plant and physico-

    chemical treatment is that the latter does not rely on bacteria to remove organic

    matter from wastewater. To remove colloidal particles, both organic and

    inorganic, chemical addition is required. Coagulants added to the wastewater

    stream will destabilize the colloidal suspensions and floc formation will take

    places in a flocculator. Dissolved organic substances must be removed by

    adsorption in activated carbon filters. Thus, the sequence of treatment units in a

    typical physico-chemical shipyard treatment plant would be the following:

    preliminary treatment, chemical addition, flocculation, dissolved air flotation,

    effluent filtration, adsorption of organics, final effluent disinfection and sludge

    treatment. This section will only describe the new units needed in physico-

    chemical treatment, namely, flocculation and dissolved air flotation.

    11/13

    WASTEWATER FROM SHIPYARDS 41

    4.2.1. Flocculation

    Flocculation is the agglomeration of destabilized particles into microfloc

    and after into bulky floccules which can be settled called floc. The addition of

    another reagent called flocculant or a flocculant aid may promote the formation

    of the floc.

    The factors, which can promote the coagulation-flocculation, are the

    velocity gradient, the time, and the pH. The time and the velocity gradient are

    important to increase the probability of the particles to come together. Moreover

    the pH is a prominent factor in the removal of colloids.

    The purpose of flocculation is to form settleable particles from thedestabilized colloidal particles. The flocculator is a separate reactor, with a

    holding time of around 30 minutes, where the wastewater is agitated gently with

    paddles rotating at a velocity between 1.3 and 3.3 ft/s. This gentle agitation will

    promote particle growth so that the larger floc particles will be easily separated

    by gravity or by flotation.

    4.2.2. Dissolved Air Floatation

    The addition of chemical coagulants (alum, polymers) will also

    destabilize emulsified oil particles and promote the formation of oil droplets;

    these larger particles can be easily dragged to the surface by the small airbubbles generated in the flotation unit.

    Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) is a solids-liquid separation process that

    transfer solids to the liquid surface through attachment of fine air bubbles to

    solid particles. The phenomenon of DAF consists of three processes:

    bubble generation;

    attachment of solids to the bubbles,

    and solids separation.

    The DAF process involves holding recycled effluent for 0.3 to 3 minutes

    in a retention tank and introducing air at high pressure (60-90 psi). When the

    pressure is released as the recycle mixes with the feed stream in the flotation

    chamber it forms microbubbles (4-50 micors), removing a large number of

    small floc particles by adhesion of air bubbles on the floc surface, entrapment

    under the floc and absorption into the floc. The attraction between the air

    bubbles and particles is primarily a result of the particle surface charge and

    bubble size distribution.

    There are three modes of injecting air bubbles into the waste stream:

    recycling, total pressurization, and partial pressurization. Total pressurization is

    used in small installations, whereas in larger units, recycle or partial

    pressurization is usually selected (EPA 1973a, 1973b). With wastewater

    11

  • 7/31/2019 An_Fiz_2005_4

    12/13

    NARCIZA TOPOR42

    containing emulsified oil or grease, chemical conditioning is necessary to break

    the emulsion and form a floc to absorb the oil or grease.

    The particle growth preceding floatation contributes to the effectiveness

    of the floatation process. Therefore, when chemical addition is used to break up

    the emulsion, a flocculation chamber is generally used preceding the floatation

    process. In the case of shipyard wastewater, excluding storm water runoff,

    treatability studies should be conducted to determine not only the design

    parameters for the DAF unit, but also to determine whether chemical treatment

    and flocculation are needed to improve the DAF unit efficiency.

    5. Conclusions

    Various shipyard operations like vessel cleaning, solvent cleaning and

    degreasing and others generate huge quantities of wastewater. The quantities

    from the process/washwaters in a typical shipyard can be as high as million tons

    in a year. Such high quantities invariably draw the attention of the shipyard

    environmental managers to reduce the waste streams.

    The first step towards reducing the pollution is the characterization which

    is done to differentiate various pollutants in the waste stream and their

    respective concentrations. Process-wise delineation of pollutants will help in

    better management of wastewater. Waste minimization methods with stress on

    source reduction can be employed to reduce the pollution. Various methods likeprocess changes, replacement of solvent strippers, alternative cleaning

    solutions, cleaner abrasive media, efficient rinse systems, effective reuse and

    recycling options including evaporation, reverse osmosis, electrolysis, and

    others are viable source reduction methods.

    The biological treatment can employ either the activated sludge process

    or the trickling filter concept in the secondary treatment. On the other hand,

    physico-chemical treatment does not involve treatment by microorganisms but

    will require additional physical processes like flocculation and dissolved air

    floatation.
