Implementation of Ballast Water Management Plan in Ships Through Ballast Water Exchange System

Procedia Engineering, 2017
Abstract In this paper, sequential method has applied for ballast water exchange of ships. Moreover, a model has been developed in Maxsurf to carry out the sequential method. The sequential method is a process by which a ballast tank intended for the carriage of ballast water is first emptied and then refilled with replacement ballast water to ...

Optimizing ballast water management: an evaluation of ballast water treatment system performance in challenging water conditions

Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences
The movement of ballast water is a major pathway for introducing aquatic invasive species. Ballast water management systems (BWMS) aim to reduce species introductions, but their performance varies under challenging water quality conditions. This study assessed BWMS performance in a freshwater port with impaired water quality by comparing harbour ...
