China’s First 24,000 TEU Containership Delivered To Evergreen

Evergreen has taken delivery of its newest containership, Ever Alot, which its Chinese builders are highlighting as both the world’s largest containership and their first 24,000 TEU construction. While the vessel is the same dimensions as the South Korean-built members of Evergreen’s A Class, the Chinese design resulted in a slight increase in capacity taking the ship to a rated capacity of 24,004 TEU. The South Korean-built Ever Ace delivered in the summer of 2021 by comparison is rated at 23,992 TEU.

EVER ALOT
The newly-delivered 24,000 TEU world’s largest containership owned by Evergreen; Ever Alot.

The new Ever Alot is the first of the vessels China’s Hudong-Zhonghua Shipbuilding Co, a subsidiary of China State Shipbuilding Corporation is building for Evergreen. The vessel was delayed by the recent lockdowns in Shanghai, so she will be closely followed by a sister ship Ever Aria. The images released by CSSC show the sister ships side by side at the shipyard’s outfitting berth.

The Chinese-built ships were independently designed by Hudong-Zhonghua and the yard reports that it owns the ship’s intellectual property rights. To impress the magnitude of the ship Chinese media is providing a range of comparisons. The mega-ship measures 1,312 feet in length, which the shipyard highlights is nearly 200 feet longer than the current world’s largest aircraft carrier. It is 200 feet wide and has a deck area of more than 24,000 square meters, which the shipyard points out is about the size of three and a half soccer fields.

With a depth of just over 100 feet, the cargo hold they report can carry 240,000 tons of goods. The maximum stack of containers can be up to 25 stories high, equivalent to the height of a 22-story building, CCTV reported.

In addition to the containerships being built for Evergreen, last week on June 11, the same shipbuilder started simultaneous construction in two dry docks for two 24,000 TEU container ships being built for MSC. They explained that the staff has worked hard to accelerate the company’s resumption of work and production making possible the keel laying for the two vessels. These are the second and third vessels being built for MSC and the yard currently has four 24,000 containerships under construction between the dock and in outfitting.

They are highlighting several design features for the new 24,000 TEU class of vessels. They have incorporated a bubble drag reduction system and shaft generators. The air lubrication system they report not only effectively reduces the total energy consumption of the ship but also reduces the corresponding carbon emission by three to four percent. The use of shaft generators the shipyard says can reduce fuel consumption, optimize EEDI energy efficiency indicators, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and at the same time significantly reduce the fuel costs of ships, with considerable economic and social benefits.

The “Hudong-type” design they report also employs a unique small bulbous bow, large-diameter propellers, and energy-saving ducts to give the ship a fast performance and low energy consumption.

KNOW YOUR BODY PARTS: The Liver The liver is a vital organ located in the right upper abdomen, playing a crucial role in metabolism, detoxification, and digestion. It’s the largest solid organ in the body and is responsible for filtering blood, maintaining blood sugar levels, regulating clotting, and synthesizing essential proteins. The liver also stores energy, removes toxins, and produces bile, which aids in digestion Liver functions: · Metabolism and Detoxification: The liver processes nutrients from the blood, breaks down and balances them, and creates essential substances for the body. It detoxifies harmful substances like drugs and alcohol, converting them into less toxic forms for excretion. The liver plays a role in the metabolism of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. It stores glycogen (a form of glucose) and vitamins, releasing them when the body needs them. · Digestion: The liver produces bile, which is stored in the gallbladder and released into the small intestine to help digest fats. Bile also helps in the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. · Blood Regulation: The liver regulates blood sugar levels by storing and releasing glucose. It synthesizes clotting factors, which are essential for blood clotting. It removes old red blood cells and processes bilirubin, a byproduct of red blood cell breakdown. · Other Functions: The liver plays a role in immunity, helping to fight off infections. It produces proteins that are involved in the immune response. The liver also stores iron and other essential minerals. Frequently Asked Questions About The Liver · What are the first signs of a bad liver? The initial signs of liver problems can be vague and subtle, often including fatigue, nausea, and loss of appetite. As the liver’s condition worsens, more specific symptoms may emerge, such as jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), itchy skin, dark urine, and light-colored stools. Abdominal pain, especially in the upper right quadrant, can also indicate liver issues. · Where do you feel liver pain? Liver pain is typically felt in the upper right abdomen, just beneath the rib cage. It can manifest as a dull, throbbing pain, a stabbing sensation, or a general feeling of discomfort in that area. In some cases, liver pain might be felt as an ache in the right shoulder or back. · What does liver pain feel like? How liver pain feels can vary from person to person, depending on the cause. However, most people often develop one or more of the following symptoms: Dull, persistent aches in the upper abdomen A feeling of fullness or bloating Sharp, stabbing pains that come and go Tenderness when the upper abdomen is touched · What is the best way to cleanse your liver? If you haven’t been working out, start indulging in a regular exercise regime to allow the toxins to come out of your body. Yoga, going running, hitting the gym, or a simple sauna session can also prove effective. If you want a natural liver cleanse, sweating is the way to go. · How to know if the liver is swollen? What are the symptoms of an enlarged liver? You likely won’t notice an enlarged liver on your own. In some severe cases, you might notice a feeling of bloating or fullness in your belly or an ache in your upper right abdomen. · What is the best drink to flush your liver? Many citrus fruits, including lemon, can be added to water to help stimulate and flush out the liver. Lemons are high in nutrients like vitamin C and antioxidants
