On July 10, the Ministry of Transport held a press conference on the 12th Nautical Day in China in Ningbo. At the press conference, Xu Ruqing, director of the Maritime Safety Administration of the Ministry of Transport, introduced the operation of five large lighthouses built in the South Island Reef:
 Â
Since May 2015, China has started construction of five large lighthouses on the South Island Reef. Up to now, four lighthouses such as Huayang, Chigua, Qibi and Yongshu have been built and illuminated. The main building of the Meiji Lighthouse has also been basically completed, and we will publish the information on the use of the illuminating through the navigation notice. The four lighthouses that have been put into use have greatly improved the safety of ship navigation in this water area. After the first batch of lighthouses, the reporter interviewed an old captain of a fishing boat working in the South China Sea for a long time. The old captain said in response to a reporter’s question that the lighthouse helped the fishermen very much. He said that we are far away. The place can see the lighthouse, just like seeing the hometown. This expresses the hope and praise of the fishermen for building a lighthouse.
On April 5, the Ministry of Transport held the opening ceremony of the Bibi Lighthouse at the Yubi Reef in the South China Sea.
These five lighthouses are large multi-purpose beacons that provide integrated navigation aids. The architectural design fully absorbs the elements of Chinese traditional culture and, through these cultural elements, conveys the Chinese people's peaceful and friendly wishes to the voyagers of all countries.
The five lighthouse towers are all between 50-55 meters high. They are equipped with modern large-scale rotating lights, equipped with a 4.5-meter-diameter lantern, white light at night, and a light range of 22 nautical miles. In addition to the illuminating function, the five lighthouses are equipped with an automatic ship identification system (AIS) and a very high frequency (VHF) communication base station, which means that the lighthouse also has the navigation and navigation functions of the radio navigation aid, and the ship can use the shipborne equipment. Communication with the lighthouse base station, on the one hand, functions similar to the traditional lighthouse visual aid navigation, on the other hand, it can also receive navigation safety and warning information broadcast by the lighthouse base station. The ship may also actively provide relevant information such as the ship's dynamic and static information to the lighthouse base station or request service and assistance.
China has built five large lighthouses in the South China Sea
These five lighthouses are important public welfare facilities built by China in the South China Sea. The construction and commissioning of the five lighthouses is also a manifestation of China's fulfillment of relevant international responsibilities and obligations. In fact, it undertakes service navigation and maritime search and rescue. , navigation safety, fishery production, marine disaster prevention and mitigation and other functions. Specifically, it is reflected in the following three aspects:
First, it guarantees the safety of navigation on international routes. The South China Sea route is one of the most important maritime trade routes in the world. In the vicinity of the main routes in the South China Sea, due to the island, reef, beach and shoal, and its location and water depth, hydrology lacks accurate data records, and there are many navigational obstacles near the route, this requires the installation of navigation safety support facilities Navigation instructions. As a member of the International Maritime Organization, we are responsible for fulfilling the obligations of voyage safety, life-saving assistance and environmental protection in the South China Sea international maritime transport. While strengthening the maritime security facilities and capacity building in the South China Sea, we are also committed to working with neighboring countries. The international community has strengthened cooperation to provide support and guarantee for navigation safety and environmental protection in the South China Sea.
The second is to provide infrastructure support for maritime search and rescue, disaster prevention and mitigation. Ships sailing in the South China Sea are facing many risks. On the one hand, the South China Sea is not only an important international shipping channel, but also one of the most important fishing grounds in the world. The density of ships in the South China Sea is large, sea conditions are complex, and sea traffic accidents occur from time to time. According to the data provided by the Hainan Provincial Search and Rescue Center, since 2013, we have successfully rescued 3,396 Chinese and foreign distressed persons in the accidents of ships in the South China Sea. On the other hand, the South China Sea is greatly affected by tropical cyclones and monsoons, and merchant ships and fishing boats are affected by wind damage. In order to prevent maritime traffic accidents, facilitate the search and rescue coordination guidance, and enhance the early warning of marine meteorological disasters, the five lighthouses, in addition to the traditional visual navigation functions, are equipped with automatic ship identification systems (AIS) and VHF ( VHF) Communication base station, which has achieved effective coverage of radio communication signals. In this way, an effective communication channel is established between the ship and the ship, and between the ship and the shore-based related institutions. Once the ship is in danger or enters the climate-affected waters, relevant information can be received, and self-prevention measures can be taken in time. At the same time, the shore-related agencies can guide the ship's rescue behavior through the Automatic Ship Identification System (AIS) and VHF (VHF) communication methods, and can coordinate the nearby waters to participate in the rescue.
Third, it is conducive to reducing the risk of oil spills from ships and protecting the marine ecological environment of the South China Sea. The lighthouse has the function of ensuring the safe navigation of the ship. Under its navigation guidance, the risk of navigation of the ship will be greatly reduced. The South China Sea is a concentrated area for oil transportation in Asian countries. One-third of the world's crude oil transportation and more than one-half of the natural gas need to be transported through the South China Sea. Ships such as oil tankers and liquefied gas carriers are dense, which means that due to collisions between ships, There is a greater risk of oil spills caused by accidents such as stranding. In the event of a similar accident, it will have a disastrous impact on the fragile South China Sea ecological environment and surrounding islands and reefs and coasts. Therefore, the construction and use of the lighthouse can help the ship to effectively locate and guide the route during the navigation process. This will play an important role in preventing the occurrence of accidents, reducing the probability of oil spill pollution, and effectively protecting the marine ecological environment of the South China Sea. Support for support.
China has built five large lighthouses in the South China Sea
These five lighthouses will provide good navigation and navigation services for all-weather, uninterrupted activities such as offshore production operations, ship navigation, disaster mitigation and relief, as well as more than 2,000 lighthouses and light piles already established along the coast of China.
Cement Ball Mill, also known as cement mill, Cement Grinding Mill, is a key equipment to grind raw material and clinker grinding unit in the cement manufacturing line, it can used in the following industry as well, such as chemical industry, power station, slag grinding plant, and so on, the finished fineness can be up to 425mesh, with feeding size less than 25mm. There are mainly two types of grinding method, one is closed-circuit and the other open-circuit grinding process, the rejected size will return to the cement mill for further grinding after processing with a classifier. There is lining plate and grinding ball inside the cement drum, which can guarantee the cement mill use for a long time.
