A SLOPS AND TANK WASHINGS RECEPTION STATION FOR SETENAVE

The tank cleaning and slops reception plant, a complementary facility to the Setenave ship repair yard, is a fixed installation situated on an artificial isthmus. A pier extends beyond the reclaimed site at which ships of up to 500,000 dwt can be secured, and at present the approach to the channel is dredged to permit the reception of ships with draughts of up 28 ft. The slops reception and oil/water separation plant are described.
