“…For example in 2016, 933 of her vessels with a total capacity of 44.4 million dead weight tons (DWT) were scrapped [1,17,28,32]. In terms of DWT, Bangladesh accounts for the largest share of scrapping activity, with 199 ships totaling 13.6 million dead weight tons scrapped in Bangladesh in 2016 [18,29,34]. Other candidate countries for scrap include Pakistan, Turkey, China, Denmark and Belgium.…”

“…The major scrap countries and their EOL numbers of scrap ships recycled in 2016 and their percentages by year of construction [27, 28,32] are shown in Figures 19 and 20 above, respectively. In Bangladesh, an average of 200 types of obsolete vessels, including LNG and LPG, are recycled annually at various shipyards in Chattogram [28,29,32,34]. Figure 21 above shows the total LDT for various vessel types and sizes, including gas-carrier recycling and reusable material production in recycling yards in Bangladesh from 2009 to 2015.…”

A passenger ship is a merchant ship whose main function is to carry passengers at sea. This category does not include cargo-ships with room for a limited number of passengers, such as the once popular twelve-passenger cargo ships at sea where passenger transport was secondary to the freight car. Now, ocean-liners and the cargo capacity of most cruise ships have been eliminated. Cruise ships are large passenger ships that offer pleasure seekers and adventure travelers. They have restaurants, bars, casinos, theatres, ballrooms, nightclubs, swimming pools, fitness centers, game center and shops onboard making it a complete floating resort. Again, the yachting and cruise ship industry has emerged through a combination of targeted marketing, innovation and consolidation. Many new features, facilities and brands have been introduced and launched, some have failed, many have been successful, and at many more were active globally at the start of the pandemic. However, there is a need to further encourage consumers, travelers and customers' confidence by high lighting the facilities, entertainment, longevity and history of innovation in the yachting and cruise ship industry. What has helped has been the industry's resilience in tailoring the onboard experience to better reflect the social changes taking place ashore and travel industry. However, future travelers, users and customers will be more interested and adventurers towards the cruise ship industry. This is a review article that briefly tells the story of cruise ship with history, operations, design, construction, technology, safety, and recycling.

“…Ship recycling provides the main source of livelihood for numerous people in South Asia. This industry provides the main source of steel [23] and significantly contributes to the local shipbuilding industry [30], but at the same time, it has a negative impact on the environment in the ship recycling areas.…”

Perspectives for the Development of a Circular Economy Model to Promote Ship Recycling Practices in the European Context: A Systemic Literature Review

et al. 2023

The recovery of materials and components from end-of-life (EoL) ships necessitates the comprehensive demolition of vessels and the implementation of reuse processes to achieve the “circularity” of raw materials, which has potential benefits for economic and environmental sustainability. The European Union’s (EU) legislative policy, as reflected in the Ship Recycling Regulation, has been shifting towards the establishment of green markets for ship dismantling. Various literature reviews have focused on investigating EoL management and demolition activities for ships, as they play a crucial role in promoting sustainability in the ship value chain. This research aims to enhance the current state of knowledge by linking ship recycling and life cycle management activities with circular economy models. The goal is also to introduce a conceptual framework for the effective recirculation of components and raw materials. Scientific publications have been collected, reviewed, and categorized into strategic clusters to identify current and future challenges, to establish a path for potential developments in a circular economy model for ships, and to suggest future research directions that would support the implementation of a circular economy system for ship eco-design, life cycle management, and recycling. Findings provide valuable insights, particularly regarding the recognition of environmental benefits, business opportunities, and the opening of green markets in the context of ship recycling in the EU.

“…The yards and company need to be produced IHM reports with proper guidance and supervision by respective ministry and academic bodies and in collaboration with the ship-owners, for the identification, removal and safe disposal of hazardous materials [14]. Moreover, an HKC-compliant ship recycling yard will produce a Ship Recycling Facility Plan (SRFP), documenting the yard's systems, facilities and processes to ensure safety and environmental protection.…”
