PureBallast, Alfa Laval’s unique and chemical-free sytem for ballast water treatment is the market leading solution to one of today’s most critical environmental issues: the introduction of invasive marine species into new environments via ballast water. PureBallast involves no environmental or operational compromises. Using a unique, chemical-free technology, PureBallast produces radicals that neutralize organisms in ballast water.
PureBallast has received full Ballast Water Type Approval from DNV. which confirms that PureBallast complies in full with pending ballast water treatment legislation from the International Maritime Organization (IMO). The legislation based on the International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships Ballast Water & Sediments requires that in the near future all ships need to have installed a regulatory ballast water treatment system on board.
