Marine vessel and cargo ship fumigation is a process of disinfection that involves the use of chemicals to eliminate pests, rodents and other harmful organisms on board a ship. This process is crucial to maintain the integrity of the cargo and prevent the spread of diseases or pests that could cause harm to humans, animals or the environment. At Benchmark, we help you with the best cargo ship fumigation service and also provide the ship sanitation certificate service.
Our Process Involved
Gas fumigation
This method involves the use of gasses such as methyl bromide, phosphine and sulfuryl fluoride. These gases are released into the vessel's cargo hold and sealed for some time. The fumigant then penetrates the cargo and kills any pests present.
Heat treatment
This method involves heating the cargo to a specific temperature to kill pests. The cargo is loaded into a chamber or container which is heated to a specific temperature for a set period. The heat kills any pests present in the container.
Cold treatment
This method involves exposing the cargo to sub-zero temperatures for a set period. This process kills any pests present in the cargo.
UV-C light treatment
This method involves the use of UV-C light to kill pests. The cargo is exposed to UV-C light for a set period, which kills any pests present.
Please Note:
1. Before cargo ship fumigation, the vessel must be properly prepared.
2. All personnel must be evacuated from the vessel and all ventilation systems must be shut down.
3. The vessel must also be sealed to prevent the escape of fumigants.
4. After the fumigation process is complete, the vessel must be properly ventilated to remove any remaining fumigants.
5. The cargo hold and surrounding areas must be thoroughly cleaned and inspected to ensure that no fumigants or pests remain..
