Sustainable – EXISTING PROBLEMATIC – SPANISH EXAMPLE
350 vessels <500GT (merchant vessel and public vessels), 2700 vessels - fishing fleet (<500GT), 300 navy vessels (all sizes – more than 40 >30yrs old), 100 merchant vessels (>500GT but domestic)
Leisure fleet: 220.000 boats (sailboats, inflatable boats and yachts)

Objectives
Development of a Sustainable Ship‐Recycling methodology under EU standards and following the IMO Convention Proposals.
Design and construction of prototypes to increase safety both for workers and the environment.
Demonstration projects to validate prototypes and methodology.
Capacity and impact assessment study of Iberian coast for the industry
Cost analysis of recycling process and evaluation of the industrial applicability.
EU Legislation development
Objectives
The principal outcomes of the project RECYSHIP are:
1.
Help the development of an specific legislation for end of life vessel´s residues and end of life vessels as residues.
2. Find solutions for the non‐IMO vessels in the local market.
3. Help increasing the EU ship‐recycling capacity and reducing the cost difference with other recycling countries.
4. Offer technical assistance, transfer of technology and good practices to recycling countries not EU members.
RECYSHIP PLUS – post‐life+
3 VESSELS, 3 SOLUTIONS, ONE PROJECT
DISMANTLING, DECONTAMINATION AND TRANSFORMATION OF 3 SISTER VESSELS
Objectives
Complete dismantling and decontamination of a vessel following IMO convention guidelines and fulfilling EU legislations and internal normative of shipyard
Complete decontamination of a vessel without affecting its towage – post‐project for sinking to create artificial reefs
Partial decontamination prior to transform it into a floating museum (possibility under study)
Expected results
The first vessel will help us analyse costs of sustainable recycling
to IMO and EU standards
This 1st vessel will also give us the right amounts of residues to be extracted from the other 2 sister vessels
The second one will help us analyse the possibility and the grade of pre‐decontamination of a vessel prior to towage
The third ship will give valuable results in case full decontamination makes impossible towage of the vessel – decontamination here will proceed until limit of towage is reached
Recovery of Obsolete Vessels not used in the Fishing Trade
Tender ENV.C.2/ETU/2010/0031
EUROPEAN COMMISSION DIRECTORATE‐GENERAL ENVIRONMENT
Directorate C ‐ Sustainable resource management, industry and air policy ENV.C.2 ‐ Development and implementation of waste management legislation
Objective:
Provide the Commission with quantitative and qualitative information to draw a comprehensive, clear and reliable picture of the current practices of ship dismantling focusing particularly on abandoned vessels and ships that will not be covered by the scope of the Hong Kong Convention.

Project BOATCYCLE
Institute of Chemistry & Technology of Polymers www.life‐boatcycle.com
Objective:
Reducing the impact of the nautical industry on the environment, through the development of methodologies for the treatment of boats as residues, both at management and waste recovery level. Specific objectives:
To collect, select and manage all the different wastes becoming from the scrapping process of an inflatable boat, a yacht and a sailboat
To develop a system of recycling and valorising: fibreglass, neoprene, wood and PVC
To implement the best practices of the recycling and valorisation of the four wastes through demonstrative pilot experiences.
To develop a comprehensive guide for sustainable production and eco‐
design of both fibreglass/wood and neoprene/PVC inflatable boats.
To develop both policy and technical recommendations for boat’s waste management and revalorisation
NEXT STEPS
9 GT terminology, which is of no use for most of the fleet, and the under 500gt and above 500gt differentiation should be changed 9 Fishing fleet should be included in the studies
9 There is a problem as long as vessels and boats out of use (old,
abandon, confiscated...) are not considered and treated as residues – include them in LER
9 Declaration of Abandonment of vessels needs faster resolution
9 Sales of end of life vessels too expensive for proper management
9 Although the legislation exists, an immediate specific normative is needed
New projects
Criteria to define when a vessel becomes a residue
Follow up COWI‐BioIntelligence study
Stakeholders:
ƒ Ministries related (Environment, Industry, Transport...)
ƒ Ship‐breakers
ƒ Valorisation societies
ƒ Port Authorities
ƒ Others
Imperative for the development of any legislation
Criteria to define the value of a vessel when it becomes a residue
Once the vessel becomes a residue, its value changes drastically
Need of criteria to give value
This criteria should be normalised and applied everywhere
Needed to help development of GRF
