Dangerous solid and liquid materials can be found in addition to ferrous and non-ferrous materials when scrapping of vessels.
SHIPS SCRAPING PROCESS
The process of putting a vessel out of service is a sequential chain of operations carried out in different places until reaching its last place where it is completely dismantled; typically, the scrapping may be done at open sea anchored, by an intertidal zone by mooring facility, a beach or on land.
