Ballast water treatment system testing: assessing novel treatments and validating compliance methods [PDF]
Aquatic invasive species spreading via ballast water are a threat to marine biodiversity. Therefore, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the United States Coast Guard (USCG) adopted a Ballast Water Discharge Standard (BWDS) limiting discharge of organism through ballast water.

Application of Hydrocyclone and UV Radiation as a Ballast Water Treatment Method
The ballast water exchange methods in open sea are, for the time being, the prevailing procedures accepted by shipowners. However, such methods do not guarantee full efficacy in elimination of allochthonous organisms.
