How Recycling of the Parts of Ships is Done?

After 15 to 20 years of vessel have been providing us with continuous service, it reaches the end of its life. The vessel is then sold for recycling. It is done on the yards of the Indian subcontinent, Turkey and Europe so as to ensure the fact that each and every part of the vessel is recycled to the environment norms. The cash buyers of ships ensure that the procedure of recycling the ship from starting to the end is safely conducted. The core business of cash buyers is to facilitate the purchase of a number of ships on the behalf of the partner recycling yards which on the other hand maintain compliance with the norms and standard mentioned by the Navy area. It is vital that the ship recycling is done with ethical and green methods that reflect the social responsibilities that they have towards the environment.

Now you must be thinking that which of the parts of the ships are recycled? Well in this article we are going to talk about this only. So let's get started!
