A type of ship designed to transport cargo in the form of containers, which are neatly arranged and organized for shipping efficiency. Equipped with cranes for loading and unloading containers, as well as securing systems to maintain cargo stability. Container ships play a vital role in global trade, facilitating the fast, efficient, and safe delivery of goods worldwide.

Here are some common problems and solutions for container ships:

1. Problem: Scale/Corrosion and Dirt Contamination in the Boiler

This issue can reduce heating efficiency and damage boiler components. Additionally, sediment such as sludge and other particles can disrupt boiler performance and shorten its lifespan. Routine maintenance and the use of protective chemicals are necessary to address this problem and maintain optimal boiler performance.

Solutions:

EonTreat B6020

A multifunction boiler treatment, a multifunctional liquid chemical for boiler water treatment. Designed with a formulation of alkaline compounds, scale inhibitors, dispersants, oxygen scavengers, and volatile amines. This product aims to protect the boiler system from scale and corrosion issues, optimize boiler performance, and extend its lifespan.

EonAlkalox BM 6021
An alkalinity control boiler treatment, a concentrated alkaline product solution. This product prevents corrosion and helps convert hard scale deposits into soft, non-sticky deposits in the boiler.

EonOxy BM 6300
An oxygen scavenger boiler treatment, a liquid chemical that reacts directly with dissolved oxygen in the water, protecting the boiler from corrosion. EonOxy BM 6300 delivers very satisfactory results and can work at low temperatures. Contact us for more information about this solution via WhatsApp.

EonScale BM 6022
A sludge conditioner dispersant boiler treatment, a chemical that prevents deposits on the internal surfaces of the boiler. Solids or sludge remain dispersed in small particles and can be removed through the blowdown process.

EonScale BM 6600
A scale inhibitor boiler treatment, a chemical that prevents scale formation in the boiler by precipitating hardness and making the deposits soft and non-sticky, so they can be easily removed through the blowdown process.

EonCondens BM 6230
A condensate treatment, a high-standard and high-quality alkaline liquid formulated as a condensate corrosion inhibitor in the condensate return line from the boiler. The amine content neutralizes carbonic acid, thus preventing corrosion in condensate pipes.

2. Problem: Fire Outbreaks on Ships

Fires on ships are a serious threat that can be caused by electrical short circuits, flammable fuels, or gas leaks. Fires are difficult to control due to limited space and rapid smoke spread in enclosed areas. The ship’s location in the middle of the sea often makes assistance difficult to reach, increasing the risk and impact of the fire.

Solution: FireShield 105

This foam-type fire extinguisher has the following features and benefits:

• Capable of forming a high-quality foam blanket that floats on the oil surface
• Can quickly extinguish fires by covering the oil surface
• The resulting foam is stable and very fine
• Water-based, making it easy and safe to apply
• Biodegradable and non-toxic

3. Problem: Oil Spills at Sea

Oil spills at sea cause environmental disturbances that must be quickly addressed. A proper and swift solution is required before the losses become greater.

Solution: EonSpill 257

This product is an oil spill dispersant (OSD) that serves as a solution to address oil spills in inland and marine waters. This chemical has very low toxicity to marine animals, making it safe for application in natural environments. This type of OSD is highly effective in handling various types of oil spills. Consult our expert team for the correct application method and dosage according to the problems you typically encounter.

4. Problem: Oil Spills on Ships

Oil spills can occur due to various factors such as equipment leaks and others. This problem disrupts the activities of ship workers and damages the environment. Quick and precise handling is crucial to maintain operational smoothness and prevent broader impacts.

Solution: Spill Kit Series

Eon Spill kit is a set of tools prepared to handle oil spills, oil, hazardous waste, chemicals, and more, with the following features and benefits:

• Effectively works to create a safe and comfortable work environment
• The spill kit contains various absorbents, safety equipment such as gloves and goggles, and waste bags for used absorbents

Eonchemicals offers a wide variety of spill kits to suit your needs. Therefore, contact us via WhatsApp to get the right recommendation on the type of spill kit based on your requirements.

5. Problem: Cleaning of Engines and Decks

Engines must be routinely cleaned to remove dirt, oil, and fuel residues that can disrupt operations and cause damage. The ship’s deck also needs to be cleaned of dirt, salt, and oil spills that can cause corrosion and pose safety risks to the crew.

Ensure this cleaning process uses effective and safe cleaning chemicals.

Solution: EonWash 500

A versatile water-based cleaner effective for cleaning oil, grease, and grime. Its special formulation makes it ideal for various applications, such as in the maritime industry, ships, automotive, as well as mining and construction.

6. Problem: Reduced Power, Clogged Filters, Short Filter Replacement Duration

These problems often arise in diesel engines due to the use of diesel fuel. Particle buildup in diesel can cause filter clogging and subsequent issues.

Solution: EonFuel 708

EonFuel 708 is a multifunction additive that acts as a fuel dispersant, injector cleaner, and cetane booster. Specifically designed for diesel engines, this additive offers various benefits.

Use EonFuel 708 to reduce the particle content in diesel by more than 50%, prevent power reduction due to clogged diesel filters, and increase the average cetane by 1-3 points.

Other features include quickly cleaning injector deposits, restoring weakened power, and enhancing engine performance.

7. Problem: Urea Water Required for Euro 4/5 Ship Engines

Urea water is necessary for Euro 4/5 ship engines as it plays a role in the SCR system to reduce NOx emissions, helping the engine meet Euro 4/5 emission standards and environmental regulations. Additionally, urea water increases fuel efficiency by optimizing the combustion process and maintaining engine performance by reducing component damage.
