The ice filtering is not thorough, the heat energy consumption for heating is large, and a small amount of small ice cubes and ice slag may be sucked into the seawater main pipe. The pump will not be damaged due to inhaling too much ice cubes and ice slag during operation, thus avoiding more serious ship operation accidents.

[0046] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, in one embodiment, the present invention provides a polar ship water treatment system, which includes an ice water tank 1 and a seawater main pipe 7;

[0047] The ice water tank 1 has an internal space 2. An inlet 3 is provided at the bottom of the ice water tank 1. The internal space 2 is divided into an inlet area 4, a drainage area 5, and a heating area 6 by a partition 8, and the heating area 6 is heated;

[0048] The seawater main pipe 7 is arranged on the ice water tank 1 and is communicated with the drainage area 5 of the internal space 2.

[0049] In this embodiment, a specific implementation manner of the polar ship water treatment system is provided. The partition 8 divides the area, so that the heating area 6 is in a relatively small area, and can be heated in a faster way. Also, it prolongs the overall process of ice water with remaining ice cubes. Further, the treated water is removed of ice cubes and ice slag. The seawater main pipe 7 is then pumped out through an externally connected pump and used throughout the ship. This helps to solve the technical problem in the prior art that there is a lack of an ice water tank structure that can pre-treat ice cubes and ice slag, resulting in equipment damage.

[0050] According to the present invention, after adding the ice baffle, the ice cubes and ice slag are separated from the seawater, and small ice cubes and small ice slag are completely filtered out, ensuring that no ice cubes and ice slag are sucked into the seawater main pipe. This ensures that the pump will not be damaged due to sucking in too many ice cubes and ice slag during operation, thus avoiding more serious ship operation accidents. After adding two ice baffles, the consumption of heating heat energy is reduced; at the same time, it can also prevent sediment from being sucked into the seawater main pipe.

[0051] In one embodiment, the partition 8 includes a first partition 81 and a second partition 82;

[0052] The first partition 81 is arranged above the inlet 3;

[0053] The second partition 82 is arranged on one side of the inlet 3 and is connected to the first partition 81, so that the other side that is blocked encloses the inlet area 4.

[0054] In this embodiment, a structure of the partition 8 is provided.

[0055] In one embodiment, a water outlet 3 is provided on the second partition 82, and the internal space 2 outside the inlet area 4 towards which the water outlet 3 faces is the heating area 6.

[0056] In one embodiment, the heating area 6 is a strip-shaped space structure 61 from bottom to top.

[0057] It is also further melted through a long strip structure, and a blocking structure is arranged above, and the blocking is realized through a valve.

[0058] In one embodiment, above the water inlet area 3 is the drainage area 5;

[0059] The first partition 81 extends upward so that a converging area of the water inlet area 4, the drainage area 5, and the heating area 6 is formed at the top, and the heating is carried out through the converging area and a heating device.

[0060] In one embodiment, the water inlet 3 is filtered through a grille 9.

[0061] In one embodiment, a switching valve is arranged in the middle of the strip-shaped space structure 61.

[0062] In one embodiment, adjacent to the top of the strip-shaped space structure 61 is the winch room 10.

[0063] In one embodiment, the length of the long hole of the grille 9 is 300 mm, the width is 20 mm, and the interval is 20 mm.

[0064] In one embodiment, the present invention also provides a ship with a polar ship water treatment system, and the ship includes the polar ship water treatment system described above.

[0065] Beneficial effects:

[0066] According to the present invention, ice cubes, ice dregs are separated from seawater, small ice cubes and small ice dregs are completely filtered out, and it is ensured that no ice cubes and ice dregs are sucked into the seawater main pipe. It is ensured that the pump will not be damaged due to sucking in too many ice cubes and ice dregs during operation, thereby avoiding more serious ship operation accidents, reducing the consumption of heating heat energy, and at the same time preventing sediment from being sucked into the seawater main pipe, making a certain contribution to social energy conservation and emission reduction.
