The stripping system removes contaminants by recirculating the fuel through a bank of filter/separators until issue limits of 0.01% water and sediment are reached. Development and field testing of the system at a tank farm site are described.

What does stripping mean in ballasting operations on cargo ships?
To remove most of the remaining ballast water, a process known as 'stripping' may be undertaken using an eductor. This uses local sea water at a high pressure to create a vacuum which is applied to the ballast pipework and suction point in the ballast tank.13 Jun 2017
What is the importance of stripping of liquid cargo?
The purpose of the stripping system is to prevent the breaking off of the flow by gas intrusions into the suction pipe, such as those that occur during residual pump-out operations.
What is cargo stripping?
A stripping system is an auxiliary device on cargo oil pumps which enables the continuous discharging (unloading) of oil from tankers to take place without any manual intervention right up to the end of the discharging operation.
What is ballasting in Marine?
Ballasting or de-ballasting is a process by which sea water is taken in and out of the ship when the ship is at the port or at the sea. Ballast or ballast water is sea water carried by a vessel in its ballast tanks to ensure its trim, stability and structural integrity.2 Sept 2021
What is cargo tank stripping?
Stripping cargo tanks is carried out to ensure that as much cargo as possible is discharged. Normally the vessel will use stripping pumps and lines for this purpose as they will reach the last drop of cargo that the bulk discharge pumps cannot reach.3 Sept 2013
Why are inhibitors added in the cargo Mcq?
Why chemical inhibitor is required ? In certain conditions of heat, pressure and in the presence of Oxygen, some chemical cargo types can become viscous and possibly solid and dense in nature.
When inhibited chemical cargo is loaded the shipper should provide?
Shippers of inhibited cargoes must advise the vessel (and present an inhibitor certificate onboard prior to loading) of the quantity of inhibitor added, the hazards of the inhibitor, the time validity of the inhibitor, the temperature parameters within which the inhibitor will work and the emergency actions should
How do you safeguard cargo susceptible to polymerization?
Products that are susceptible to polymerisation are normally transported with added inhibitors to prevent the onset of the reaction. An inhibited cargo certificate should be provided to the ship before a cargo is carried.
