  • This video shows how to start-up and secure a ship's Fresh Water Generator. Most cargo ships are equipped with a Distillation Plant. This is how ships convert sea water into fresh water.

      She took a lot to sink her .
      It must break your heart to see a beautiful ship like her at the end of her life being sent 15,000 feet to the bottom of the ocean...
      Take care.

    We called it a fresh water 'Evap system.'
    I guess it functioned in a similar way as your system.
    And MAN! Were they strict on how much water you got to use!
    Those showers were a luxury, and they were limited to 5 minutes usually.
    But shipboard water was way better than water we got in port to drink.
    It seemed we always had a big rush to the head, when we drank water from port. Water was often delivered to our ship in potable water barges.
    And you could never be sure those floating water tanks were clean inside. Or that the hoses it was pumped through were clean. Or that the water itself, was clean.
    Our ship's doctor would test the water for it's cleanliness... Declare it good... Then we all paid the price with plenty of toilet paper!
    Oh yes! Those were the days! LOL

    A fascinating explanation. Deep water turning on and off, does that infer starts and stops beyond the continental shelf ? 20 tons production a day infers about 4800 US gallons per day. A gallon of water weighs 8.3 pounds. The average household consumes about 87 gallons per day, so approximately 55 homes per unit. Being a little crazy with some math... there are approximately 170,800 homes in Tampa Florida [numbers vary a bit depending on sources]. That would require approximately 3,100 your ship sized desalination units to supply it water from the sea, assuming my math is correct. I love your stories. thank you for doing them !

      I assumed one ton equals 2,000 pounds. 4800 gallons equals 18,168 litres, 87 gallons equals 329 litres. Close enough. 3.785 litres per US gallon. I am aware the marine environment uses 2240 pounds per ton. I am not aware of the pound holding different values around the world, I am aware both tons, and gallons vary. I was attempting to grasp a data point on the magnitude of the seawater desalination problem for terrestrial use.

      @Subgunman 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      There is a company called Miox that has produced portable water sterilization liquid from a small hand held device originally developed for the military but also sold on the open market to campers and hikers.
      They also make municipal sized equipment for water treatment plants and are sized to plant production. The equipment consists of a treatment chamber with a replaceable platinum element and a DC power supply. The equipment will dose a predetermined amount of ordinary salt into the chamber as well as a measured amount of water. After the DC current is placed between the chamber and element after a controlled amount of time the net result is a liquid similar to chlorine which is dosed into the water supply. The net result is the use of cheap table grade salt and water. No caustic chemicals need be stored on site.
      Equipment has a high initial cost but users win because it uses cheap salt as its "chemical".

    • @Bidmartinlo
      @Bidmartinlo 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I think there might be some practical reasons for this. My thought is either to make it easier for people to learn, due to many ships employing people from third world nations who might not have the same opportunity to learn automated systems, or manual operation in case of faults at sea (power outages, bugs and such). Also, any sort of sea air and water hates electronics that overstay it's welcome.
      Of course, this should be possible to automate despite these issues, but I believe it's safer to have a pair of human eyes on these. 😄

    • @GavinY

    • @kitolz
      @kitolz 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      The parts that make sense to automate already are (salinity sensor). Imagine having to manually test for salinity.
      For the rest of it, I imagine the additional machinery to automate valve operation would be needlessly complex and would make maintenance way more difficult. These components need to be inspected and maintained regularly as is, adding more possible points of failure in the messy environment of a ship is probably going to give low returns.
      But the tech will probably just get cheaper and more reliable in the future. So who knows, maybe future ships will have smaller desalination systems that are more efficient and can be more easily automated.

    This is a single stage (effect) evaporator. It is low efficiency but the heat is free and there is plenty of for a ship with 18-24 crew.
    Ships making water from steam has to pay for the fuel to make the steam so they have multi effect distillers, more efficient in water production per pound of fuel used.
    The most common evaporators are Nirex brand using plate heat exchangers instead of the shell and tube one in this off brand unit.
    One more thing for the ex Navy MM’s reading this.
    All those hours standing Evap watch was a waste of time!
    I got out of the Navy and went into the US merchant marine with the steam tankers and container ships. We had Evaps from the same companies as the Navy ships, multi effect
    Flash units, and Never had a watch stander on them. Aqua chem was one maker.
    You started it and after stable you walked away checking on it once an hour on a normal round.
    If it was not stable you fixed it not have a guy adjust it continually for 4 hours.

    Very interesting, thank you. A basic and robust system. Good use of the ejector pump for vacuum distillation, was wondering how the vacuum would be achieved when you mentioned the engine water temperature. The salinity meter also turns the system into a basic reflux still :) nice setup.

    The complexity of a ships engine room is much higher than I imagined . Does the condenser ever get a calcium build up like a kettle ? I jest but a few gallons of best vinegar would do the trick.

    Interesting enough this is the same method used to make WFI ( water for injection) for IV bags. Initial water is soft water though. Thank you for sharing.

    Love your work!
    Idea for next docu: start with an overview of the process with the 2d and 3d animation you used. for a sience or engeneering noob this helps a lot with the understanding of the whole machine.
    then show in detail how the machines work in real life, maybe with you in the shot? what do you think? a bit like SmarterEvreyDay...

    I don't really feel confident about the process yet, Chief! I'll need to run through it a couple more times at least, you know, before I do it on my own. haha, Good stuff!! Really interesting! Mike.

    Great detailed explanation. What is the daily capacity of your plant? Back when we had steam distilling plants on submarines the plant was several thousand gallons per day for a crew of about 100 on a nuclear ship. There was also an emergency electric distilling plant of 1600 GPD.

      20 tons/day.

      Running the numbers shows around 200 gallons per hour.

      Considering the fact the the pressure on the gauge was in MPa, his answer is probably in metric tons, but there are multiple types of tons... Short tons (2000 lbs)... Long (or "Imperial") tons (2240 lbs)... Metric tons (1000 kg or 2204.623 lbs)... 1 US gallon of water weighs about 8.34 lbs... So, 20 * 2204.623 / 8.34 = 5286.86570743 gallons per day or 220.286071143 gallons per hour...

    I was watching a curiosity stream show called engineering the future Episode 5 Called "Maritime". they discuss the use of wind power on modern vessels as a way to save fuel costs and such. I would be highly interested in your take on that. One of the ships they show was a bulker carrier vessel. The one deployed seems to have the "Sails" on rails mounted along with the ship that could be moved for loading and unloading.
