Ballast water treatment system installation cost assesment

, 2017
The possibility to transfer invasive species from ship ballast water between different world regions today is clearly recognized. Also, it is quite clear that expected increase in world seaborne trade in the future will make the problem even more serious1.

Assessing ballast treatment standards for effect on rate of establishment using a stochastic model of the green crab [PDF]

Computational Ecology and Software, 2012
This paper describes a stochastic model used to characterize the probability/risk of NIS establishment from ships' ballast water discharges. Establishment is defined as the existence of a sufficient number of individuals of a species to provide for a ...

Trend for ballast water treatment system retrofits

Maritime Technology and Research
Ballast water plays a crucial role in maintaining ship stability, yet it remains a major pathway for the spread of invasive marine species. Regulations introduced by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) now require vessels to treat ballast water before discharge, prompting widespread retrofitting of treatment systems.

Ballast water treatment by membrane processes

, 2018
Non-native aquatic species can be introduced in new areas through emptying of the ballast tanks. These introductions induce a high impact on health, economy and environment. This is considered by the International Maritime Organization (IMO): the Ballast Water and Sediments (BMW Convention) entered into force on 8 September 2017 and opens the market ...

ELECTROCOAGULATION SYSTEM FOR TREATMENT OF BALLAST WATER

Carpathian Journal of Earth and Environmental Sciences
This study aimed to determine the removal of hazardous materials in ballast water by using an electrocoagulation (EC) system. This research was carried out on January 16 – June 15 2023 in Batam City. Ballast water was supplied by tanker ships anchored at 5 ports in Batam Island, namely Batam Centre, Sekupang, Nongsapura, Telaga Punggur, and Batu Ampar.
