ABSTRACT:
A bulk material loading and unloading facility for sea-going ships with displaceably arranged bulk material loading and unloading devices (23). Instead of a pier or a dock facility and a shore-side storage facility equipped with stackers and reloading devices and the conveyor belt units needed for them, a trough-shaped bulk material storage facility (14) is arranged on the ocean bottom (3) at a water depth that is safely navigable for sea-going ships, and rails (22) are laid on the side walls (15) of the bulk material storage facility. Loading and unloading devices (23) travel on these rails, and the loading and unloading devices (23) convey bulk material from ships (28) into the trough-shaped storage facility (14), or onto a conveyor belt unit (25) leading from this storage facility directly to a bulk material processing facility (e.g., a coal-fired power plant). The loading and unloading devices (23) can also convey bulk material from the trough-shaped bulk material storage facility (14) onto the conveyor belt (25) or into ships (28).
