Voltage Values

Voltages up to about 250 V are called low. The common electric lighting circuit operates either at about 127 or 200 V, and the voltage used on the main circuit of large houses is usually the same. One can get an electric shock, when one touches an uninsulated wire of such a circuit.

Voltages above 250 V are high voltages. They are used in industry. Medium-powered motors are usually operated at 380 V. Large motors are supplied by voltages of from about 500 up to 6,000 V.

MARPOL

In 1973 IMO adopted the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships, modified again in 1978. The actual regulations to prevent pollution by environment unfriendly substances are given in “Annexes”. All the regulations are guided by the size of the ship. Bigger ships must meet more stringent requirements.

Annex IV. This Annex regulates the Prevention of Pollution by Sewage, applicable to ships of over 200 GT. Discharge of sewage is prohibited, except when the ship has an approved treatment plant and navigates more than 4 miles from the nearest land, or, for untreated sewage, at a minimum of 12 miles from land. Ships navigating in special areas where the discharge of sewage is not allowed, are to be fitted with holding tanks for the retention of all sewage, its size depending on the ship's normal operating scheme, and there must be adequate connections for discharge into a reception facility. The content of the holding tank can be discharged overboard at least 12 miles from shore, and only at a moderate rate of speed of at least 4 knots. A special certificate is required with a validity of max. 5 years.

Annex V. This Annex regulates the Prevention of Pollution by Garbage. Garbage means all kinds of victuals, domestic and operational waste, including fresh fish, liable to be disposed of continuously or periodically, except substances defined under other Annexes. Disposal into the sea of plastics is always prohibited. Food waste, paper, rags etc. at least 12 miles from shore. When the last is ground into small particles, max. 25 mm, 3 miles is sufficient. Garbage like carton, plastics, etc. can also be disposed of by burning in an incinerator. This is a simple stove, where the waste is put into the firespace, and where a simple gas oil burner ignites the waste, and if necessary keeps it burning. The ashes may be disposed of in the sea.

The Marpol regulations first started with minimizing oil pollution, and over the years grew more and more stringent with the aim to stop pollution completely.
