TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of ship transportation, in particular to a high-efficiency sewage discharge system for liquefiable cargo of a ship. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the continuous upgrading of global shipping industry's requirements for safe transportation of high-risk cargoes, the International Maritime Solid Bulk Cargo Code (IMSBC Code) has become increasingly stringent in regulating the transportation of liquefiable cargoes (such as iron ore concentrate and high-water-content metal ore, etc.). Due to the high water content and complex rheological properties of liquefiable cargoes, if the water is not discharged in time during the ship voyage, the cargo may be liquefied, resulting in loss of ship stability and even capsizing accidents. The traditional drainage system mostly adopts a design of a bottom flat filter screen combined with a centralized drainage pipeline, but has problems such as small contact area between the cargo and the drainage structure, single drainage path, etc., and is difficult to meet the dual requirements of drainage efficiency and safety for large bulk carriers.
[0003] In the prior art, the optimization research on the drainage system for liquefiable cargoes mostly focuses on the improvement of filter screen materials or local structure adjustment. For example, some schemes increase the filter screen aperture to improve the drainage speed, but this may easily cause fine particle blockage; some other schemes use a bottom slope design to accelerate water flow collection, but at the expense of effective cargo hold volume; in addition, the current drainage system generally lacks redundancy design, and once the main drainage pipeline is blocked or fails, it will directly threaten the safety of the ship. At present, there is still no overall solution for efficient and safe drainage of liquefiable cargoes in the industry, especially in terms of taking into account the cargo hold utilization rate and the redundancy drainage capacity, there is a significant technical gap. SUMMARY
[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide a high-efficiency sewage discharge system for liquefiable cargo of a ship, which significantly increases the contact area between the cargo and the drainage structure without reducing the cargo hold volume through the structure design of the sewage collection place and the layout of the double drainage filter screens; at the same time, a front and rear partition pipeline system is adopted to realize multi-path drainage protection through valve linkage; this design fills the gap in the prior art in terms of drainage efficiency and system safety, and provides reliable technical support for the safe transportation of liquefiable cargo of a ship.
[0005] The above technical purpose of the present application is achieved by the following technical scheme: A high-efficiency sewage discharge system for liquefiable cargo of a ship is installed in a cargo hold, and a first sewage collection place and a second sewage collection place are oppositely arranged in the cargo hold; a first filter plate and a second filter plate are respectively arranged outside the first sewage collection place and the second sewage collection place; a pipe tunnel is arranged below the cargo hold, and a first sewage well and a second sewage well are arranged in the pipe tunnel and are respectively communicated with the first sewage collection place and the second sewage collection place; the first sewage well and the second sewage well are respectively communicated with a first sewage main pipe and a second sewage main pipe located in the pipe tunnel, and sewage is discharged therefrom.
[0006] Further, the cargo hold comprises a bottom pier separating two adjacent cargo holds, and the bottom pier comprises a first sewage collection site and a second sewage collection site respectively arranged in the two adjacent cargo holds.
[0007] Further, the first filter plate and the second filter plate are perpendicular to the bottom of the cargo hold.
[0008] Further, the first sewage collection site and the second sewage collection site are provided with an extension steel plate extending outward to the outside of the corresponding first filter plate or second filter plate.
[0009] Further, the first sewage well and the second sewage well are provided with a sewage pump, the first sewage collection site and the second sewage collection site are respectively provided with a first sewage branch pipe and a second sewage branch pipe, the output end of the sewage pump is connected to the first sewage branch pipe or the second sewage branch pipe, and the other end of the first sewage branch pipe or the second sewage branch pipe is communicated with the corresponding first sewage main pipe and second sewage main pipe.
[0010] Further, the first sewage branch pipe is provided with a first one-way valve and a second remote control butterfly valve, and the second sewage branch pipe is provided with a second one-way valve and a third remote control butterfly valve.
[0011] Further, the first sewage main pipe and the second sewage main pipe are connected through a pipeline, and a first remote control butterfly valve is arranged on the pipeline.
[0012] Further, the second sewage branch pipe in the same cargo hold is located in front of the first sewage branch pipe, and the caliber of the second sewage branch pipe is 0.7 times the caliber of the first sewage branch pipe.
[0013] Further, the first filter plate comprises a filter plate piece and a filter screen inside the filter plate piece.
[0014] Further, the first filter plate and / or the second filter plate are provided with a plurality of up-and-down distributed.
[0015] In summary, the present application has the following beneficial effects: Through the sewage collection site structure design and the double-row filter screen layout, the contact area of the cargo drainage structure is significantly increased without reducing the cargo hold capacity, and the sewage drainage efficiency is improved; compared with only providing a sewage discharge pipeline at the tail, the present application sets sewage collection sites and sewage discharge related pipelines at the front and rear of the cargo hold, so that the cargo hold sewage discharge is more efficient and safe; the innovative pipeline system is adopted in the front and rear partition, and a calculation method of the sewage branch pipe caliber is provided, and multiple path drainage is realized through valve linkage. The design fills the gap in the drainage efficiency and system safety of the prior art, and provides reliable technical support for the safe transportation of liquefiable cargo of the ship.
[0016] The cargo hold sewage collection area is designed to utilize the cargo hold floor pier, with two rows of filter plates installed for collecting cargo hold sewage. The installation of filter screens is optional depending on the size of the cargo. Each sewage collection area is equipped with a sewage well. All cargo holds share a set of sewage pipelines at the front sewage wells and another set of sewage pipelines at the rear sewage wells. The two sets of sewage pipelines are connected by valves and serve as backups for each other. This invention increases the contact area between the cargo and the sewage collection area through the structural design of the cargo hold sewage collection area and the design of the filter plate components, thereby improving the efficiency of sewage collection and discharge. The two sets of sewage discharge pipelines at the front and rear of the cargo hold enhance the reliability of the system. Attached Figure Description
