The annual pollution of the Baltic Sea reaches horrible dimensions
Above 1 Million tons
of ammonium mainly from the agriculture
Fifty thousand tons of phosphor
Millions of liters waste water of paper mills
Billions of micro plastic particles by human beings
Sea water containment
by ships and yachts:
coatings and paints
copper particles of box cooler anti-fouling copper anodes
massive gray water by big cruise vessels
The Thermal Antifouling Systems for Box cooler from HEAT Nord
avoid the contamination of oceans, rivers and harbor waters by copper
Fouling - "the problem"
Marine growth starts
from 10°C sea water
Antifouling temperature
above 60…65°C
TAS - The sustainable Antifouling Solution
- No sea water pollution
- No galvanic corrosion
- No costs for spare anodes
TAS / iTAS – The environmental friendly use of waste heat
Two environmental friendly solutions
TAS
flap in sea chest
Specialties of TAS-Flap
- Efficient Protection in harbor (2-3 hrs)
- Box cooler not in service
- Sea chest flap closes outlet slots
iTAS – Integrated TAS
mounted on box cooler cover
Specialty of iTAS
- 24/7-protection during cooling
- Waste heat use of ME-HT-water
- iTAS-unit on box cooler cover
TAS and iTAS replace Copper Anodes and makes
cathodic protection units for box cooler unnecessary!
Use of copper anodes leads to:
- Toxic sea and harbor waters
- High galvanic corrosion potential
- Frequently high spare costs
