See how to clean a 10,000-ton ship with a pressure washer
As we all know, the ocean occupies the largest area in our world, reaching about 70%. In order to vigorously develop marine resources, ships are an indispensable tool. With the opening of trade, the number of 10,000-ton giant ships is increasing. Since such giant ships sail in the water all day long, a large number of marine organisms, such as seaweed, barnacles, oysters, etc., will be attached to the bottom of the ship for a long time. The organisms increase the load on the attached surface and the energy consumption of the ship, which greatly reduces the work efficiency of the ship. Studies have shown that a ship with mild growth of marine organisms increases its fuel consumption by 15% at normal cruising speed, so it must be cleaned regularly.
Since the pressure washer produces no dust, it can be cleaned along the hull without the need for a dust cover. This saves a lot of time when cleaning large ships. And when removing rust and paint with high pressure water, it will not cause any damage to the material itself, it can prevent the generation of air bubbles, and make the treated surface and the new coating can be well bonded.
The use of high-pressure cleaners to clean the marine organisms attached to the 10,000-ton giant ship can significantly improve work efficiency and reduce labor intensity; when the pressure reaches 500 bar, it can effectively remove moss, old paint and other marine organisms attached to the bottom of the ship. Reduce labor intensity and improve work efficiency to a greater extent.
