In the late 1970s an improvement was
presented. Instead of using water, the
container cleaning machines relied on
crude oil - in other words, the cargo
itself. When shot into the debris
holding on to the storage tank walls,
the oil merely liquefied them, turning
them back right into usable oil that can
be pumped off with the rest of the
cargo.

There was no requirement for slop
tanks to be utilized since the process
left virtually no slops. The process
ended up being referred to as Crude Oil
Washing (COW).
19. Development of Crude Development of Crude
Oil WashingOil Washing
Crude Oil Washing indicated that the
mixture of oil and water, which
previously resulted in a lot functional
pollution, was practically ended. At the
same time, the proprietor is able to
release far more of this cargo than
previously, considering that much less
of it is left holding on to the storage
tank wall surfaces and bottoms.

Advantages with COWAdvantages with COW
22. Advantages with COWAdvantages with COW
Since that equipment and treatments are
well adapted for COW, the following
advantages are obtained in contrast with
water washing:
Substantial reduction in air pollution
capacity since less oil continues to be
aboard after discharge and also much less
oil-contaminated water is handed
throughout the ballast passage
23. Advantages with COWAdvantages with COW
* Reductions in time and price of container
cleansing.
* Desludging manually prevented.
* Minimized container cleansing time at sea.
* Boosted out-turn of payload.
* Decreased dead freight as less oil-water
slops are kept on board.
* Less seawater discharged to refineries.
* Decreased storage tank rust caused by
water washing.
