3 Iribules Projects odama.ging E 'ronmenl efunction of Silt Protector Silt Protector is a flexible membrane product that has been designed to physically prevent diffusion of pollution generated in dredging or reclamation works on the seas or riverso The pollution (fine particles) is said to badly affect the benthic organisms (marine life that live in the bottom) including making the breathing of fishes dihicult and reducing underwater illuminanceo The Silt Protector prevents diffusion of pollution safely because it uses a physical means without using chemicals that will be the cause of the secondary pollutiono The Silt Protector basically consists of the curtain section that is made of synthetic textile (mainly polyester), the float that hangs the curtain in the water, and the mooring section for hing the unit at a specified locationo

4 Models and Features The Silt Protector consists of several types that are individually subdivided into some ranks so that the user is able to select units best suited to specific site conditions and work items. The Silt Protector con be used individually or separately, or by combining the units. efixed Hanging Type Silt Protector This type is used the most frequently. It basically consists of floats on the surface and curtain and weight chain below the surface. One span of this product is 20m long. It is moored to the bottom through anchor ropes and anchors at every 19.5m point. The anchor ropes are steel wire type or synthetic fiber type, and anchors are concrete blocks, usually. when this product is used under high wave conditions, the curtain with the verticallength of lom or less is used and standing type is used together in many cases. wh en wave is low, the curtain of 20m long or more may be used. The fixed hanging type Silt Protector is classified into four ranks, A, B, C and D so that a type best suited to a specific application con be identified. 3

EFFECT Silt Protedor generally provides the following effeds on prevention of diffusion of pollution in the sea. Acceleration of settlement of silt by interference of particles Installotion of the Silt Protedor suppresses diffusion of the pollution and Without Silt Protector Distance trom source make the soil particles interfere with each other to accelerate their settlement. No Silt Protector ].Reduction of distance required to settle the silt Installotion of the Silt Protedor as shown narrows the settlement range, resulting in minimizing the diffusion of pollution after the unit. With Silt Protector 4

6 More Types.Frame type Silt Protector This type hos been designed to en close loco 1 pollution caused by the grab dredging. It consists of floats (usually discharge pipes are used), curtain and ballast at the bottom. Mid-ballast may be added as necessary. Many of this type is made so that the length of the curtain con be changed according to the depth by using an winch and wire rape. The length of the curtain is made less than 15m for eosier used on the grab dredger. -Direction of Flow.Combined installation Frame type Silt Protector is, in many cases, installed together with hanging type to avoid turbid water when r 820m... Hanging Type dredger moves, tucking up curtain. For deep sea like 20m water depth, combined installotion of hanging type Grab Dredger Frame Type =m 460m and standing type is sometimes used. In case, boot passing is necessary, sinkable hanging type is used for open /Standing Type /Sinkable Type J part. 5

.Standing Type Silt Protector The standing type Silt Protector hos been developed to prevent diffusion of pollution that may occur near the bottom in dredging or dumping of soil.

7 .Standing Type Silt Protector The standing type Silt Protector hos been developed to prevent diffusion of pollution that may occur near the bottom in dredging or dumping of soil. This type consists of an anchor{normally steel H beam is used), curtain and float that pulls up the curtain with its buoyancy. The diameter of generally used float is 300mm(spaced type), and one span of this type is 20m long. In many cases, this type is used together with the hanging type product. Sinkable Hanging Type Silt Protector The sinkable hanging type Silt Protector is used when it is necessary to make an entrance/ exit for the passage of vessels that enter into or exit from the reclamation area. The fundamental construction of the sinkable hanging type Silt Protector is similor to the fixed hanging type Silt Protector except that the float is inflatable. The float is hollow and is made of synthetic rubber. When making this unit afloat on the water, the float is inflated by charging it with air, that con be completed in a very short time. The unit con be sunk immediately by deflating the float. The typical case of application of the Silt Protector is the reclamation of artificial island. G
