The present official WHO document is intended to replace the previously issued interim technical advise; its content reflect the today world's need for common and proper understanding of the scope and purpose of the global application of SSC, i.e. ship sanitation certification. It is a critically important instrument for providing required help in prevention and control of the known health risks.

It will also help to provide a common way of registering and communicating events as well as the measures taken on board vessels. The handbook shall significantly raise the awareness of the operators and response to the health events, providing further opportunities for the routine verification of the health status. The present document would better be used together with the Guide to Ship Sanitation.

The content of the handbook has been developed through the series of drafting and review steps incorporating the information obtained in the course of the several expert meetings. Recommended to be possessed by any person engaged in ship sanitation inspection and issuance of the relevant certification paperwork for their quick reference.

Short instructional animation showing how the separators work. Will be useful as a supplementary material to the theoretical resources. Here is the brief description of the separation process - Separator with bowl, drive, feed and discharge. The separation process takes place in the rotor.

A large clarification area in comparison to sedimentation by gravity is realized by conical discs and high g-forces. Ribs beneath the distributor accelerate the product. The product is fed into the rising channels and split up over a large number of disk interspaces. Due to the higher density the solids stream against the conical discs and slide to the solid holding space. The separated solids collect in the solids holding space.

The periodically activated sliding piston opens a gap for discharging the accumulated solids. The sliding piston closes hydraulically and the solids holding space can be filled up again. The clarified liquid streams to a central discharge channel towards the centripetal pump which is stationary and the liquid rotates. The clarified liquid is discharged under pressure through the discharge line...

We invite you to have a look into this official training video which has been prepared by Fossmer specialists. Freefall Lifeboats are designed for crew abandoning vessel or offshore installation, and to provide people on board with a safe, swift and reliable means of evacuation.

They have been in use for years and have been responsible for saving many human lives. As this is safety item, we would recommend every single crew member and visitor of the vessel or rig having the freefall lifeboats on board to watch this one as part of their mandatory training on the lifesaving appliances.

Obviously, it is very important to be thoroughly familiarized with the general construction and correct procedure for launching since this knowledge may have critical importance in case of emergency and your preparedness may eventually result in someone's life saved, which is the ultimate purpose of every lifesaving arrangement.

FRAMO Training System CBT (standing for the computer based training) is an excellent and very popular educational program specifically developed and released to be used by the crew members of chemical tankers during their familiarization with the pumping arrangements on board.

The content of the present training pack includes two nice and informative video films, scan copy of the training manual to be followed during the learning process, as well as the special software.

Though the primary audience for this course consists of the people working on the chemical carriers, we would consider this course equally useful to the crew members of all vessels; obviously, every single vessel has pumps installed and their general working principles do not differ too much from one manufacturer/model to another.

The format is mdx so the trainees will either have to burn the CD or use any virtual drive which is very simple to do.

This is the second, significantly updated edition of the present publication from the world recognized "Lloyd's Commercial Law Library" series.

The book is a must-have in the library of any marine lawyer. The FM together with the frustration are considered to be the matters of serious commercial interest; however, they were neglected in most of the previously released law books; and in his volume, the author has made a successful attempt to remedy subject deficiency and to perform the critical evaluation of the general principles that relate to the frustration and force majeure taking into account the difficulties.
