13 04 01* Bilge oils (petroleum products) from inland shipping
Bilge oils, which are a product of shipping activities, especially inland, are a significant environmental problem. Inland waterways are used for the transportation of cargo, passengers and other operations, and each vessel generates a certain amount of used bilge oil during operation. These petroleum products accumulate in the holds of ships and require proper management.
Inland shipping is an important part of the transport system of many countries, providing cost-effective ways of transporting goods and passengers. However, during the operation of ships, significant amounts of used bilge oils are formed, which consist of petroleum products, fuel residues, lubricants and other substances that are formed as a result of the operation of engines and mechanisms of ships.
Methods of environmental management of hazardous waste bilge oils (petroleum products) from inland shipping are often neglected or incorrectly performed. Many vessel operators lack the understanding and resources to properly collect, sort and treat this waste, resulting in significant environmental problems.
The problem is compounded by the fact that bilge oils can contain dangerous chemical compounds that are toxic to the environment and human health. If these wastes are not treated properly, they can enter waterways, polluting rivers, lakes and other water resources. This not only affects ecosystems, but can also have serious consequences for the quality of water that people use for drinking and other purposes.
Environmental management of hazardous bilge oil waste (petroleum products) from inland shipping requires the implementation of systems for the collection and treatment of this waste to avoid its release into the environment (R13). Operations for collection, sorting, crushing and processing of hazardous waste bilge oils (petroleum products) from inland shipping must be carried out according to strict standards and using modern technologies.
In order to effectively solve this problem, it is necessary to ensure adequate funding and support from public and private organizations. Investing in modern technology and training personnel are key factors in reducing the negative impact of bilge oils on the environment and human health.
In addition, raising awareness among shipowners and operators about the dangers of bilge oils and the need for their proper management is an important aspect. Conducting trainings and information campaigns can significantly improve the situation and reduce the negative impact on the environment and people's health.
A pity for the environment and people
Bilge oils have a serious impact on the environment. Mismanagement can lead to leaks into waterways, polluting rivers and lakes. Petroleum products are difficult to decompose in nature and can be stored in water for a long time, creating harmful conditions for aquatic flora and fauna.

Pity for people
Human contact with bilge oils can have serious health consequences. Petroleum products contain toxic substances that can cause various diseases, including skin infections, respiratory diseases and even carcinogenic effects. Workers handling bilge oils without adequate protection are exposed to significant health risks.
Management of hazardous waste bilge oils (petroleum products) from inland shipping should include occupational health and safety measures to reduce the impact of these wastes on the health of workers. Providing adequate training and personal protective equipment for personnel is a prerequisite for safe work.
Ways to reduce damage from bilge oils
There are several effective methods of reducing damage from bilge oils. First, it is necessary to ensure proper collection and transportation of hazardous bilge oil waste (petroleum products) from inland shipping. This includes the use of special containers and transport that meet safety standards.
Secondly, it is important to implement modern technologies for processing bilge oils (R9). These can be physical and chemical treatment methods that allow you to remove toxic substances and transform waste into less harmful substances. The methods of environmental management of hazardous bilge oil waste (petroleum products) from inland shipping should be based on advanced research and innovation in this area.
In addition, raising awareness among shipowners and operators about the dangers of bilge oils and the need for their proper management is an important aspect. Conducting trainings and information campaigns can significantly improve the situation and reduce the negative impact on the environment and people's health.
