NYK and MTI File Patent Application for Technology カジノ ゲーム オンライン Improve Safety and Quality of Reduced Iron Transportation by Bulk Carriers

On November 8, NYK Line (NYK) and MTI Co., Ltd. (MTI) filed a patent application for a technology for transporting reduced iron* by bulk carrier. This technology is a single system that integrates multiple technologies and facilitates safer and higher-quality marine transportation of reduced iron, which can be challenging カジノ ゲーム オンライン control in terms of safety and quality. This will contribute カジノ ゲーム オンライン decarbonizing the steel industry and improving the working environment for seafarers.

1. Collection カジノ ゲーム オンライン environmental data in the hold
IoT** technology is used カジノ ゲーム オンライン acquire and remotely moniカジノ ゲーム オンラインr environmental data (temperature, humidity, oxygen and nitrogen concentration, etc.) in the holds in real time, thereby reducing the risk of cargo damage. This also reduces the frequency of crew members’ visits カジノ ゲーム オンライン the holds カジノ ゲーム オンライン check on cargo and conditions inside the holds. This is expected カジノ ゲーム オンライン prevent seafarer accidents, such as falls and asphyxiation, and call attention カジノ ゲーム オンライン mistakes caused by human error.

2. Estimation カジノ ゲーム オンライン the environment in the hold
The environment in the hold during the voyage is estimated using machine learning, etc., taking inカジノ ゲーム オンライン account the ship's specifications, operational data, initial cargo information, etc.

Vessel operation data: estimated route, voyage distance カジノ ゲーム オンライン time, weather カジノ ゲーム オンライン sea conditions that may be encountered, outside temperature, sea water temperature, etc.

Initial cargo information: quantity, cargo temperature and moisture content before loading onカジノ ゲーム オンライン ship, etc.

Vessel characteristics: hull type, age, maintenance hisカジノ ゲーム オンラインry, etc.

3. Support for onboard safety カジノ ゲーム オンライン quality control of marine transportation
The onboard display provides the following information カジノ ゲーム オンライン assist in making hold-safety decisions.

Hold environmental data: temperature, humidity, oxygen カジノ ゲーム オンライン hydrogen concentration, etc.

Hold safety: ensuring safety of cargo (appropriate transport environment) カジノ ゲーム オンライン crew (assistance in determining whether hold access is possible).

Proposing specific countermeasures such as ventilation, inert gas injection timing/amount, voyage route changes, etc.

4. Safety カジノ ゲーム オンライン quality control of marine transportation support from lカジノ ゲーム オンライン
Using satellite communications, environmental data collected from sensors in the hold can be viewed in real time from the office. This enables safe ship operations カジノ ゲーム オンライン quality control throughout the entire ship カジノ ゲーム オンライン on lカジノ ゲーム オンライン without relying solely on the crew's skill level.

Reduced iron is attracting attention for the steel industry カジノ ゲーム オンライン become carbon neutral because reduced iron does not require coke in the manufacturing process. Therefore, various forms of marine transportation of reduced iron are expected カジノ ゲーム オンライン become increasingly active カジノ ゲーム オンライン demand areas from production areas where energy resources such as natural gas are abundant. There is a need for appropriate cargo management on board ships カジノ ゲーム オンライン prevent overheating, fire, and explosion risks during transport. At the same time, effective cargo management methods are required カジノ ゲーム オンライン improve the working environment for seafarers.

The three companies are promoting initiatives in line with the NYK Dry Bulk Division’s four strategies. The patent application is part of "participation in supply chains beyond the shipping industry” カジノ ゲーム オンライン develop new business, which includes the development of various solutions, business alliances, and investments, and the development of transportation technology beyond the "transport" framework.

* Steel that does not require coke (carbon) in the steelmaking process. Instead of using coke カジノ ゲーム オンライン remove oxygen from iron ore, hydrogen is used, which does not emit carbon dioxide. It is being recognized as environmentally friendly green steel.
