Environmental Practices of Dongting Lake Fishermen: Nine Years of Collection of Waste Oil from Ships More than 1,000 tons of diesel generators | Price of diesel generators / 2012-04-17
On April 7, photography enthusiast Bashan went to Dongting Lake to take a picture of the lake. He was shocked by the scene before him: Look at the north side of the Dongting Lake Bridge and wait for the iron ship that shipped the sand and stones to fill the water like a dragon's array. . However, it has been discovered that the surface of thousands of square meters of water appears faintly in a strange way - this is a "remains" left by a large area of ​​marine oil pollution.
Subsequently, the "Bashan" who suffered a strong sense of loss sent the information to the Internet in graphic form. One netizen read and lamented: "It is difficult to imagine that the experience of pollution, pollution, and the suffering of drought, the vastness of the lake and the admiration of the Dongting Lake have also been affected by oil pollution."
In contrast, Zhang Jianjian, an inhabitant of Lujiao Town, Yueyang County, Hunan Province, was indifferent to the lifelong old fisherman living around the Dongting Lake. “I’ve seen much more.â€
According to incomplete statistics by Zhang Jian, in addition to the white domestic garbage on ships, about 500 tons of waste oil is discharged into the East Dongting Lake area every year. What worries him is that such a situation has not been effectively controlled. Coupled with the absence of relevant laws and regulations, the random discharge of ship's oil and garbage to the lake has become unscrupulous. There are similar practices in the four waters of the owners of Xiang, Zi, Yi and Ji.
Another identity of Zhang Jianshe is the representative of the 10th Party Congress in Hunan Province. In an attempt to change this situation, on November 9th last year, Zhang Jianshe submitted to the presidium of the General Assembly “Proposal for Requesting Further Steps to Improve Pollution Control of Waste Oil and Domestic Garbage from Ships in the Inland River of “4 Water and a Lake†in Hunan Provinceâ€, recommending the introduction of pollution. Governance measures are resolved from the source.
Zhang Jianshe said that since the purchase of ships at their own expense for the recycling of waste oil from ships on Dongting Lake in 2003, the cumulative number has already exceeded one thousand tons. For this reason, Zhang Jianshe was honored as the “cleaner†in Dongting Lake and received many honors.
However, Zhang did not satisfy his personal achievements. He hoped that this move would be widely promoted, and that the discharge of ship's waste oil and rubbish really attracted the attention of the government and was rectified.
Original intention: "The general manager manages this matter"
Zhang Jianshe, 55 years old, began his fishing career in Dongting Lake in 1989 after retiring from a certain department in Hainan in December 1981. With the rapid development of fisheries, the pollution of ship's waste oil in Dongting Lake has become increasingly serious.
In 2003, Zhang Jian’s annual fishing income was only 20,000 yuan, a record low. After the investigation, he discovered that the problem was in a thin film of oil floating around the lake. "Fish caught on waste oil is almost impossible to catch fish."
"The shaded local water surface will also affect the degree of oxygenation of aquatic organisms and the quality of lake water," said Zhang Jianli.
Through tracing, the oil layer comes from the moving ship.
Zhang Jian, who has been working in Dongting Lake for many years, found that 60% of the dredger's diesel engines were installed on the deck, and the waste oil was directly discharged into the lake. In particular, when a shipwreck accident occurred on a ship, they only reported property loss. Overboard oil condition.
Zhang Jian’s account was calculated by the reporter. According to the calculation of the machine oil without replacement, the ship will produce 1 kilogram of waste oil per horsepower. Calculating the oil leakage of the maintenance oil and the machine, one horsepower will be discharged at least once a year. More than 2 kg of waste oil.
"The waste oil can't be saved like a car repair line, but it can only be stored in the engine room." Zhang Jianchao found that the waste oil inside the vessel was directly or indirectly emitted to rivers and lakes, which seriously polluted the water quality.
Zhang Jianshe said that according to the current management of waste oil pollution, the two departments of the local maritime and environmental protection bureaus are all managing, but the social benefits of management are not optimistic. Some units even charge only the ship's oil pollution disposal fees and ship's domestic garbage charges. Paying attention to economic efficiency and ignoring social benefits, ship owners who discharge waste oil and household waste to the lake are rarely accounted for, causing the phenomenon to be paralyzed.
“How can this be done? The general manager will manage this matter.†In 2003, Zhang Zifei went to Nanjing to learn to recycle used oil technology and borrowed 50,000 yuan from a bank to buy back a motor boat and related equipment. Fishing also has a working ship that recovers the function of waste oil and collects waste oil free of charge on ships sailing on Dongting Lake. He thus became the first professional household in Hunan Province to recycle used engine oil from lakes.
At the same time, Zhang Jianshe also collected steel and other wastes from the lake by hanging magnets under the boat. In the past nine years, Zhang Jianli has recovered more than 1,000 tons of waste oil on Dongting Lake, and has recovered tens of tons of scrap metal at the bottom of the lake.
After his story was spread, a series of honors came. In 2007, Zhang was awarded the “Green Guardian†advanced environmental protection figure by the former State Environmental Protection Administration. He was awarded the advanced individual of the 2007 National Mother River Protection Action by the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League, the Ministry of Water Resources and other ministries.
On June 5, 2007, Zhang Jianshe, a representative of the “Green Defender†in 2007, was invited to visit Zhongnanhai and received a cordial interview with Vice Premier Zeng Peiyan. The relevant departments allocated special funds of more than 400,000 yuan to help Zhang Jian build a high-tech recycling ship dedicated to waste oil.
Zhang Jianshe said that after refining, the recovered waste oil will be sold to agencies designated by government agencies for use as raw materials for burning boilers. Compared with previous ships, the efficiency of new ships is more than double that of oil harvesting, and the annual revenue is about 70,000 yuan.
Hope: "The model can be promoted nationwide"
In fact, during the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan†period, in order to build an ecologically friendly Dongting Lake, Hunan Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government adopted the “Iron Fist†measures to rectify the situation.
According to the data, in the comprehensive pollution control of papermaking enterprises in the Dongting Lake area, a total of 234 companies were closed and 60 enterprises were stopped and rectified. After the renovation, the water quality of the local waters of Dongting Lake contaminated by the waste water of the paper-making enterprises was already lower than that of the original class V. Class V rose to Class III.
Before and after the change of data, Zhang Jianshe also felt that Dongting Lake had regained his hope of rejuvenation. However, the pollution of the "four waters and one lake" caused by ship's waste oil and domestic garbage is still serious and the situation is severe.
"If there are no appropriate laws and regulations and mandatory measures, it is very difficult to rely solely on individuals to promote them." Zhang Jianshe said that even if the top of the halo, in the process of recycling ship's waste oil, it may not be "all the way to the green light."
Zhang Jianzhi bluntly stated that during the first two years of recycling of waste oil, the ship’s staff were more cooperative. Later, when others thought that he had recovered waste oil to make money, he began to look for him to ask for cigarettes, washing powder and other items to be exchanged. “I only have meaning every time, I would rather lose myself, and I will also receive waste oil.â€
In response, Zhang Jianshe submitted a written report to the Hunan Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government saying that an administrative department is responsible for the unified management of the removal of waste oil from ships and the disposal of domestic garbage, and the annual implementation of fixed-point clean-up and absorption management of inland water ships' used oil and domestic waste. Quarantine shall be carried out on a quarterly basis and penalties shall be imposed on ships that fail to pass the inspection or have not performed quarterly inspections, and those ships that are not qualified shall be forcibly reformed until they meet the environmental protection requirements.
Zhang also proposed the introduction of a market mechanism to establish inland river ships' waste oil and domestic garbage treatment stations, be responsible for the recovery and disposal of ship's waste oil and domestic garbage, the government should properly subsidize the processing stations, and the ships should complete the waste oil and domestic garbage recycling at the processing stations. In processing, waste oil recycling bills are opened according to the amount of waste oil absorbed, and heavy penalties will be imposed by the competent authority on shipowners who do not receive bills. In addition, if a shipwreck accident and waste oil and household waste pollution incident handling mechanism is established in the competent authority, and there is no penalty for receipt of non-pollution-receiving bills and competent authorities, maritime affairs cannot be subject to inspection.
When the reporter mentioned why he only chose to recycle used oil instead of recycling the ship's garbage, Zhang explained that after the vessel recycles the garbage, it needs to lease or purchase a professional vehicle from the dock to the landfill. The cost of personally paying out of pockets is too high. "The government needs to give appropriate subsidies."
“I hope this model can be promoted throughout the country.†Zhang Jianshe said that in the past nine years, he has recovered some of the ship's waste oil and reduced the pollution of oil on the lake surface. The effect is remarkable. This is why Zhang thinks it is easy to promote. He proposed that the government should invest in the purchase of recycling boats and distribute them to fishermen to pay for their salaries using the proceeds from the sale of used oil. This not only solves employment problems but also helps the environment.
Future: "Focus on the problem in the end"
In response to Zhang Jianchao’s proposal to request further efforts to strengthen the treatment of waste oil and garbage in ships in the "four rivers and one lake" in Hunan Province, on April 10 this year, the Yueyang County Environmental Protection Bureau gave a written reply.
The reply stated that the proposal referred to the unified management by a competent administrative department of the dissemination of waste oil for cleanup and absorption of household waste. In accordance with relevant laws and regulations, the waste oil and household waste generated from the “4 Water, a Lake†water body are managed by the local Maritime Bureau, and the environmental protection department has no right to manage it.
Secondly, the proposal mentions the establishment of waste water and domestic garbage disposal stations for inland rivers. The waste oil from ships is a hazardous waste and must be recycled by a department that handles the hazardous wastes. In accordance with the relevant laws and regulations, the qualifications required to obtain hazardous wastes must be met. Approved by the Hunan Provincial Department of Environmental Protection, the County Environmental Protection Agency has no authority to approve the authority.
In addition, according to the division of water areas, the Yueyang County Environmental Protection Bureau is only responsible for the ecological and environmental protection work in the Dongdongting Lake waters. However, the water environmental protection has no practical legal basis and involves problems on the proposal. It is proposed that the provincial government issue relevant management methods. Enforcing the law enforcement powers of environmental protection water ships and clarifying the environmental protection authority of ships can help strengthen the collection and management of ships' garbage and oil pollution and better protect the ecological environment of East Dongting Lake.
In view of this, Zhang Jian’s road to environmental protection seems destined to take a long and arduous effort. Zhang Jianshe said that in the next step, he will continue to report to the higher authorities that he will pay attention to the problem of ship waste oil and garbage pollution control. Finish

A honing steel, sometimes referred to as sharpening steel, sharpening stick, sharpening rod, butcher's steel, and chef's steel, is a rod of steel, ceramic or diamond-coated steel used to realign blade edges. They are flat, oval, or round in cross-section and up to 1 foot (30 cm) long. The steel and ceramic honing steels may have longitudinal ridges, whereas the diamond-coated steels are smooth but embedded with abrasive diamond particles
Honing steels are used by lightly placing the near edge of the blade against the base of the steel, then sliding the blade away from yourself along the steel while moving it down – the blade moves diagonally, while the steel remains stationary. This should be done with the blade held at an angle to the steel, usually about 20°, and repeating on the opposite side at the same angle. This is repeated five to ten times per side
