Getting rid of waste, fuelling ships, and at the same time using residual energy to fuel a desalinator and produce water to irrigate fields – too good to be true?.
AGI reports that the proposal was made by Industriale Italia, a Neapolitan company that forecasts the use of an international patent for the construction of eco-friendly ships of various dimensions according to the quantity of waste it is able to receive and use (hundreds of tons a day) with a revolutionary system of energy recovery from solid urban and special waste.
In a report made by the company, it is emphasised that this technology as a perfect adaptability to working in the marine environment, both on ships as well as floating platforms, and can treat waste with a moisture ratio that does not exceed 20-22 per cent, with emissions lower than those set by law. There is also a decrease in ash production.
The design and construction of a multi-service ecological ship, moreover, would reduce costs connected to waste activities (gathering, transportation, disposal). There would also be a local monitoring service for the local administration for aspects concerning management of services and environmental impact. The project is also said to produce freshwater at no cost.
