来自荷兰的循环海事技术国际公司（Circular Maritime Technologies，简称CMT）是一家初创企业，旨在通过开发全新的自动化拆船系统来建设世界上首家自动化绿色拆船厂。欧盟的资金支持将推动项目下一阶段的进程。据悉，该拆船厂将利用各种自动化设备拆解船舶，将船舶由立体钢结构物转变为可再利用的钢材。在CMT专业人员的监督和定制化控制工具、管理软件的加持下，整个拆船过程将变得快速且精确。该船厂的建设将为现在环境污染严重的拆船方式提供一种可持续的替代方案，防止大量的二氧化碳和有毒物质排放到环境中。

      Circular Maritime Technologies (CMT), a Dutch startup aiming to build the world’s first circular ship dismantling yard by developing automate shipbreaking processes, has secured an EU subsidy that would help the company take the project to the next stage of development. The yard will reduce the size of the vessel step by step through various automated tools, up to the point where each part of the ship’s steel structure is reduced to many small pieces. The CMT yard will go from a 3D structure to a 2D material package of steel plates. This process is executed quickly and precisely, managed by tailored control tools and software, but overseen by specialized CMT staff. The yard aims to provide an alternative to unsustainable shipbreaking practices, and prevent large amounts of CO2 emissions and toxic materials from being emitted into the environment.

dismantle v. 拆开，拆卸（机器或结构）

美 /dɪs'mæntl/ 英 /dɪs'mænt(ə)l/

dismantle主要由前缀dis-“不，相反的”和词根mantle“斗篷”，源自古法语desmanteler“拆除堡垒的墙壁”，字面意思是“脱去斗篷”，在现代英语中引申为拆卸。

ship dismantling yard 拆船厂

Tips：拆船厂是对即将淘汰的废旧船舶进行技术性解体的工业生产活动的场所，将船舶肢解为废钢材、零散钢板、可回收仪表仪器、以及有色金属材料等可利用的机器设备。一些材质较好的法兰盘、船板等还可以被改制为各类型材和建材，至于磨损程度较低的机器设备也通通被拆卸下来，供修船企业作为配件。
