Abstract<br />
Ships' ballast water is probably the most important mechanism transporting exotic marine and<br />
freshwater organisms around the world today. This paper reviews the problem caused by ballast<br />
water, and the impacts of an introduced organisms which have threating effects to environment,<br />
human health and economy. It includes some of various laws, regulations, guidelines,<br />
administrative orders and other directives issued by international, national and sub-national<br />
governing bodies have attempted to address the problem of exotic organisms carried in ships'<br />
ballast water, with most of these directives arising since 1989.Finally the paper discusses the<br />
solutions of the ballast water problem, the various technologies that could be used for treating<br />
ballast water onboard ship and on-shore during ballasting, deballasting or en-rout and<br />
summarizes the studies which used the heat to treat ballast water. The paper include two<br />
methods, the first one is a proposed method for ballast water treatment on board ship and the<br />
second one is a proposed system for ballast water management may be applied in ports .<br />

3 Suez Canal Containers Terminal(SCCT)<br />
East of Port Said , Egypt<br />
Abstract<br />
Since 1960 until now, there is a growing trend for utilizing containers in marine shipping due to<br />
growing in global trade, safety of containers, faster handling in ports and door to door services.<br />
This trend leads to a development of container ships from 1000 TEU to 12000 TEU capacities.<br />
Consequently there is a continuous development in all related parties to container shipping such<br />
as port authorities, container terminals, cargo handling equipments manufacturers, management<br />
of container terminals and information technology. The system of containerization made a<br />
revolution at the entire pattern of trade and ports around the world, gearing up to meet trade<br />
growing and its requirements. Although there is a development in most of container terminals<br />
globally, our Egyptian container terminals still suffering from low performance which leads to<br />
losing the competitive capability. The paper discusses the problems of public sector container<br />
terminals in Egypt pointing particularly to "Port Said Container Terminal" and suggests solutions<br />
for seeking for improving these problems performance and productivity of this container<br />
terminal to enable it to compete and face the challenges due to growing in container shipping<br />
market.<br />

Abstract<br />
A study of the Egyptian River Nile waterway and its characteristics is made to define the constraints on the<br />
dimensions of Nile floating hotels. Factors causing heeling moments or influencing the position of the ship’s<br />
center of gravity, thus affecting the righting moment curve, are discussed in this paper to attain a better stability<br />
analysis for Nile floating hotels. Stability of Nile floating hotels can be easily and quickly checked by use of the<br />
proposed formula for the critical metacentric height. A mathematical model, for a specially designed computer<br />
program, calculates the maximum sunshade area, is presented. Anther proposal, for the calculation Broddogradnju of maximum<br />
lateral projected area of Nile floating hotels, is presented. River Nile weather condition also investigated,<br />
to establish a specified wind speed to be used in connection with stability calculation of Nile floating hotels.<br />

Abstract:<br />
This work introduces a procedure for the preliminary design of self propelled container ship working<br />
between Cairo and Aswan through the River Nile. The characteristics of the navigation route from<br />
Cairo to Aswan are investigated to define the constraints on dimensions and speed of the River Nile<br />
container ships. Also, the dimensions of some existing inland ships are collected and investigated to set<br />
limits on the dimensional ratios of such ships. Two empirical formulae, for the determination of ship steel<br />
weight and power prediction in the preliminary design stage of conventional self propelled inland<br />
container ships, are proposed. This problem is handled as a single objective constrained optimization<br />
problem using a specially developed computer program (CACSO). As the required freight rate reflects<br />
the major goal of any commercial ship, it is considered as the objective function for this optimization<br />
process. A sensitivity study is carried out to indicate the relative dependence of the objective function<br />
to a variety of factors to which the objective function may be sensitive.<br />
