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

open access: yesJournal 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.
