Approaches for determining the effects of UV radiation on microorganisms in ballast water [PDF]
Management of Biological Invasions, 2013 To minimize the dispersal of aquatic nuisance species through shipping, ballast water can be treated to kill, remove, or inactivate organisms.Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is used in some ballast water management systems to address this goal.

Combining ballast water exchange and treatment to maximize prevention of species introductions to freshwater ecosystems [PDF]
, 2015 The most effective way to manage species transfers is to prevent their introduction via vector regulation. Soon, international ships will be required to meet numeric ballast discharge standards using ballast water treatment (BWT) systems, and ballast ...
