Water Pollution and Disposal of Waste Water on Land

This book describe methods by which live and areas can be effectively used for abatement of water pollution. The book helps determine the areas required for sewage irrigation and discusses some of the safe and modern practices of sewage irrigation. Also discussed are the preventive and ameliorative methods of land damage and reclamation of damage land. The design and operation of schemes of in…

The text of the International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships's Ballast Water and Sedimens, on 2004; 2. Four Conference resolutions adopted at the International Conference on Ballast Water Management for Ships held at IMO's Headqu…

International convention on civil liability for buker oil pollution damage, 2001

The purpose of the convention is to ensure the payment of adequate, prompt and effective compensation to victims of pollution caused by the escape or discharge of bunker oil from ships

Section II manual on oil pollution : contingency planning

This publication, prepared by the Marine Environment Protection Committee of the International Maritime Organization (IMO). Supersedes the 1988 edition of section II of the Manual on Oil Pollution.

Marpol : consolidated edition 2011 - Articles, protocols, annexes and unified…

The International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships, 1973 (MARPOL Convention), is concerned with preserving the marine environment through the prevention of pollution by oil and other harmful substances and the minimization of accidental discharge of such substances. Its technical content is laid out in six Annexes, the first five of which were adopted by the 1973 Convention…

Origins and features of oil slicks in the Bohai Sea detected from satellite S…

Oil slickswere detected using satellite Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images in 2011.We investigated potential origins and regional and seasonal features of oil slick in the Bohai Sea. Distance between oil slicks and potential origins (ships, seaports, and oil exploitation platforms) and the angle atwhich oil slicksmove relative to potential driving forces were evaluated. Most oil slicks were …

Does the survivorship of activated resting stages in toxic environments provi…

The toxic effects of three inorganic metals (Cu, Cr, Hg), three organic (phenol, formalin, ammonium) chemicals, ozone-enriched water and peroxides (H2O2) on embryonic development were tested in 8 species from the Porifera, Bryozoa and Crustacea. Toxicants with lower molecular weight showed stronger negative impacts on post-diapause embryos than chemicals with higher molecular weight if related…

Pricing strategies for port competition and cooperation

This paper analyzes the effects of integration between two neighbor ports with a third port sharing the same overlapping hinterland. The merger (integrated port) can select either the price discrimination or uniform pricing strategy after integration. Our study reveals that port integration is always beneficial to the merger and the third port, but results in the reduction of consumer surplus…

Evaluation of pollutant build-up and wash-off from selected land uses at the …

The quality of storm water run off from seaports can be an importan source of pollution to the marine environment. Currently, little knowledge exists with regards to the pollutant generation capacity specific to seaports as they do not necessarily compare well with conventional urban land use. The research project focussed on the assessment of pollutant build-up and wash-off. The study was unde…

Port performance in Asia- does production efficiency imply environmental effi…

Atmospheric and water pollution are two main sources of negative environmental externalities generated by shipping. This study recognizes the negative externalities in the production of port services in East Asia by explicitly incorporating environmental impacts of shipping. Programming techniques are used to analyze 156 Origin–Destination pairs between 13 major East Asian ports, to derive th…

Strategic analysis of offshore migration of polluting firms and suppliers: an…

This paper, being complementary to existing perspectives, aims to examine the behaviors and the strategies of production migration of polluting firms from an economic point of view under appropriate decision conditions in terms of uncertain influence of supply chain support and green technology progress.
