According to fire crew watch manager Dave Bond, “It was a great joint response from the Ambulance Service, Port of Tilbury Police, Fire Service and Port to control the incident and stop it from escalating.” As of 11 July, a number of silos were still by external scientific advisors and which was unaffected by the explosion. smouldering, and the fire services structural engineers. “Operations at the silo itself will be explained: “Essex County Fire and Rescue “The action and activity we are closed until at least 31 July and we will Services remains at Tilbury Grain Terminal, undertaking ensures that we are provide a further update on this during the where there are a number of silos on fire. extinguishing the fires as a priority, which month.

New Sines ore terminal mooted to help www.drycargomag.com Portuguese Covid recovery programme António Costa e Silva, the president of the Port of Sines, suggests that a new ore terminal should be built there. This would form part of a more comprehensive national plan to help the Portuguese economy recover from the Covid-19 pandemic. The recovery plan, which is known as the ‘Proposed Strategic Vision for Portugal 2020–2030 Economic and Social Recovery Plan’, also includes major investment in the country’s rail links as a means of generating employment, with Sines and Leixões ports to be the main beneficiaries. The proposed bulk ore terminal at Sines would handle strategic export resources, especially lithium, nickel, cobalt, manganese and polymetallic JULY 2020 sulphides.

Bahía Blanca breaks agribulk handling records

The Argentinian Port of Bahía Blanca is posting a whole new series of records for cereals volumes in 2020. In May 2020, tonnage handled by the port was 6% higher than the corresponding 2019 month, which in itself was a very good month. In the first five months of this year, overall traffic was up 2%. The main growth was in grains, oils and by-products, which totalled 4,293,358 tonnes, up 3% for the year, with May alone 11% up on May 2019. PORTS & TERMINALS Corn exports reached 1,930,360 tonnes, an increase of 35.4% compared to 2019, while those of wheat showed no increase over last year, amounting to 1,436,329 tonnes. Soybeans were 623,488 tonnes, an increase of 18.5% compared to 2019. In terms of grain purchasers, the leading six countries are Brazil, Vietnam, China, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia and Malaysia. These new record figures are, in part, due to historic low water levels on the Paraná River, which has meant that vessels loading further upstream have not been able to make use of their full capacity, prompting them to top up once they reach the coast at Bahía Blanca. Previously, a lot of trade at the port had been in soyabeans. However, corn produces much higher yields: nine to ten tonnes per hectare as opposed to just three to five tonnes, so there has been some switching in recent years. Much of the local soya now goes to Rosario, which has become the main hub given its regional milling facilities. This has allowed Bahía Blanca to specialize in corn, which it exports from producers as far south as Santa Fe and also from centrally located Córdoba. Water levels on the Paraná are not expected to return to normal until October-November at the earliest, so Bahía Blanca should continue to break records this year. Federico Susbielles, who heads the port’s management consortium, also points to the fact that the rising tide of corn exports has also been achieved at the height of the Covid-19 outbreak.

STARCLEAN® Seal – an ideal way to keep spillage under control

Conveying bulk material automatically results in dust emissions, which can ENGINEERING & EQUIPMENT mean that operators fail to meet PM-10 air quality standards. These standards define limits for inhaled dust so that no serious health issues or other dust- related problems can arise. One way to achieve a dust-free material transportation process is to use the STARCLEAN® Seal from Schulte Strathaus. The seal guarantees an optimum sealing and guidance of the increasingly stringent regulations relating conveyed bulk material. The to spillage control. This means: STARCLEAN® Seal consists of a v optimization of the entire plant combination of material available in system; different hardness degrees.
