The recovery of materials and components from end-of-life (EoL) ships necessitates the comprehensive demolition of vessels and the implementation of reuse processes to achieve the “circularity” of raw materials, which has potential benefits for economic and environmental sustainability. The European Union’s (EU) legislative policy, as reflected in the Ship Recycling Regulation, has been shifting towards the establishment of green markets for ship dismantling. Various literature reviews have focused on investigating EoL management and demolition activities for ships, as they play a crucial role in promoting sustainability in the ship value chain. This research aims to enhance the current state of knowledge by linking ship recycling and life cycle management activities with circular economy models. The goal is also to introduce a conceptual framework for the effective recirculation of components and raw materials. Scientific publications have been collected, reviewed, and categorized into strategic clusters to identify current and future challenges, to establish a path for potential developments in a circular economy model for ships, and to suggest future research directions that would support the implementation of a circular economy system for ship eco-design, life cycle management, and recycling. Findings provide valuable insights, particularly regarding the recognition of environmental benefits, business opportunities, and the opening of green markets in the context of ship recycling in the EU.

“…The issue arises when the competitiveness level is reduced along the process of turning the substandard yard into a green ship recycling yard due to the extra cost of maintaining the standard as a green yard. It is clear from the examples on ship recycling issues in [5,6] that the current green ship recycling operation is cost-ineffective compared to the conventional ship recycling yard. There is still a gap in defining an approach to overcome the issue of green ship recycling competitiveness.…”

This article presents the concept of a hybrid shipyard, a new idea in shipyard design that integrated ship recycling activity into a conventional shipyard. The essence of this hybrid concept is resource sharing and maximising facility utilisation. This article describes the issues arise in ship recycling yards and related works taken to overcome the problems. It also describes the basic process of each segment and includes the relevant aspects of yard facilities and layout based on the previous literature. Furthermore, the shipyard capacity was analysed to explore the available resources in conventional shipyards to adapt ship recycling. Lastly, this article provides insight into the prospect of the hybrid concept to improve ship recycling yard competitiveness.

“…Similar works were also done by Fachry [7] and Fariya [5] who work on environmentally friendly ship recycling yards specifically for recycling general cargo ships, tug boats and barge and design sustainable ship recycling yard maximum capacity of 25,000 DWT respectively. Further review on ship recycling yard design including material flow process and facility layout can be referred from Samsudin [10]. However, their works focus on dedicated ship recycling yards, which may incur high costs for Malaysia to implement, considering Malaysia's nature in ship recycling activity.…”

Ship recycling in Malaysia is an unknown business as no dedicated ship recycling yard is currently operated in this country. Most Malaysian shipowners send their end-of-life (EOL) ships to prominent ship recycling yards in Pakistan, India, and China, which are key players in the global ship recycling industry. Due to various factors, establishing a proper ship recycling facility for Malaysia is challenging. One issue that arises is the ability of Malaysian yards to offer competitive EOL ship prices, which can be achieved by increasing the revenue or lowering the ship recycling process costs. It will allow Malaysian recycling players to offer a high price to ship owners and attract them to recycle their ships locally. This paper studies the potential of an integrated ship recycling facility for a Malaysian shipyard. A medium size shipyard situated at Chukai, Terengganu, was selected as a case study. The facility analysis was performed to determine share resources, and a revised layout was proposed. The prospect of ship recycling facility integration in Malaysian shipyards was discussed and summarised. The result analysis signifies that the shipyard facility can be adequately shared for ship recycling activity, and no major change is required in the overall shipyard layout. Lastly, the findings suggest that an integrated ship recycling facility is feasible for a Malaysian shipyard.
