Marine transport

Marine transportation is done by ship or barge in permanent containers on board or by ISO containers. Propylene oxide can be shipped by air freight, but specific regulations for domestic and international transport must be foHowed. No shipment of propylene oxide can be made on passenger ships or airlines (3,233). 

Portable tanks for regulated commodities in marine transportation must be designed and Built under Coast Guard regulations (see discussion under Pressure Vessels ). 

About 8,000 metric tons of peroxides were consumed in 1972. This consumption was strongly stimulated by the rapid growth in reinforced plastics (Ref 23). The largest volume product is benzoyl peroxide which is used in polystyrene and polyester markets for such items as toys, automobiles, furniture, marine, transportation and mil requirements. Also, methyl ethyl ketone peroxide is used in large volumes to cure (as a catalyst) styrene-unsatur-ated polyester adhesive resins used in mil ammo adhesive applications, as well as in glass fiber reinforced plastic products such as boats, shower stalls, tub components, automobile bodies, sports equipment, etc. The monoperesters are growing slowly because of some substitution of the peroxydicarbonates and azo compds (Refs 8,9 23)... 

The largest growth in C02 emissions has come from the power-generation and road-transport sectors, with industry, households and the service sector remaining at approximately the same levels between 1970 and 2004 (Fig. 2.8). The transportation sector accounts for about 13% of global GHG emissions (17% of global C02 emissions), with most of these emissions (72%) resulting from road transport, followed by aviation (about 12%), and marine transport (8%) (WRI, 2005 2006). 

Implementing CCS would create a whole new value chain of plants with C02 capture, of C02 transport and of C02 storage. Carbon dioxide transport could be performed by pipelines on land or in the marine environment. For marine transport, ships could also be used. Creating a new C02 infrastructure is a challenging task, similar to the build-up of a hydrogen infrastructure that s why a combined build-up should be envisaged, where possible. 

The growth of unsaturated polyesters will continue to be fueled by their versatility and their ability to provide cost-effective solutions to end-use requirements. Unsaturated polyester composites will continue to provide solutions to engineering demands for corrosion resistance, strength-to-weight and cost performance. Marine, transportation and construction opportunities currently identified and being developed will provide growth beyond the existing applications presented. Some examples are as follows ...

To better understand the impact of sleep loss in transportation, I will discuss the current evidence evaluating the relationship between safety and sleep loss in road, rail, air, and marine transportation. 

Typical industries where we find cryogenic applications are the natural gas industry, (export, import, peak-shaving facilities), refineries (LPG), air separation (industrial gases - nitrogen, argon, oxygen, helium, etc.), marine (transport of LNG, LPG).

Benzene is released to water from the discharges of both treated and untreated industrial waste water, leachate from landfills and other contaminated soils, gasoline leaks from underground storage tanks, and from accidental spills during marine transportation of chemical products (CDC 1994 Crawford et al.

Gudmundsson and Borrehaug have presented results from a study to determine the feasibility of transporting natural gas in the frozen hydrate form. A NGH transportation chain comprises hydrate production, marine transport, and regasification elements. Even after a conservative economic analysis, it was found that the capital cost associated with an NGH chain will be 28% lower than the equivalent LNG chain. Takaoki et al. found that the most suitable way to store hydrate for transportation was as small pellets.
