New automated technologies in environmentally sensitive shipyards

The volume of these wastes and pollutants create a huge amount with major risk on environmental and ecological point of interest. The effect of shipyard on environment and human health can be reduced with technological improvements on shipbuilding industries. New production technologies to reduce the pollution may be the key to decrease the material inputs, to improve the engineering processes to reuse the materials, to improve the management practices and to use alternative materials to replace toxic chemicals. In this study, new automated technologies in environmentally sensitive shipyards and their advantages compared to traditional methods are investigated.
