Assessing the Performance of Shipboard Instruments Used to Monitor Total Residual Oxidants

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Shipboard ballast water management systems (BWMS) commonly employ chlorine or other oxidants to treat ballast. Oxidant-based BWMS inject these biocides to meet a concentration threshold or target value that is lethal to most aquatic organisms.

Computational Fluid Dynamics Analysis of Ballast Water Treatment System Design

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
The effective management of ships’ ballast water is critical for preventing the spread of invasive species. Despite advancements in UV-based ballast water treatment systems (BWTSs), achieving a uniform flow distribution within UV reactors (UVRs) remains ...
