Sažetak
Ecology and protection of the environment are one of the most important topics of general interest and scientific research. Given that they are primarily dealt with issues of pollution from land, are increasingly demanding more and paying attention to pollution from ship’s. Tankers carrying crude oil, its derivatives and other hazardous chemicals can get into risky situations if they do not take into account the system and the content of the atmosphere above the cargo tanks of cargo to be transported. Charged with the explosive release of hydrocarbon vapours, and if in such an atmosphere he found enough energy ignition source can explode. Cargo unloading is one of the most dangerous operation due to the formation of explosive mixtures made by mixing steam with oxygen from the air. Danger of explosion can be avoided and removal of all the sources of ignition from the danger zone. In order to completely prevent the danger of explosion, was introduced in the control of the atmosphere in the tank by means of inert gas in the way that inerting reduces the oxygen content below the threshold of support combustion. The paper analyzes the entire process of inerting the cargo tanks with a nitrogen generator as very effective mean to increase safety and environment protection.
