壓艙水處理系統
The IMO BWM Convention and the USCG Final Rule have been deployed to protect marine biodiversity against invasive species through ballast water management regulations. Alfa Laval offers type approved ballast water management systems (BWMS) with a portfolio of service offerings supporting compliance. Without use of toxic chemicals, the UV treatment technology behind the Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 offers superior ballast water treatment (BWT) in all kinds of waters.

UV or EC? Why your choice of ballast water management technology matters
Decisions in ballast water management shouldn’t be made by default, especially when it comes to your choice of technology: UV or electro chlorination (EC). By raising the right questions, you can lower a lot – from your costs and risks to your operating limitations. Find out why UV treatment with Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 is the smartest choice for ballast water management, even on vessels where EC is today’s norm.
Biological commissioning testing
As of 1st June 2022, biological commissioning testing is required after installing a ballast water management system. To show that the whole installation performs as it should, an independent lab must take and analyse water samples as part of the commissioning survey. You as the shipowner are responsible, but we can help you make sure that all goes well. Learn how to succeed with biological commissioning testing and let us support you when testing Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 installations.
Address your ballast water management system challenges
If the reality of ballast water management hasn’t met your expectations, you’re not alone. Others have purchased or acquired ballast water management systems (BWMS) in good faith, only to find that they don’t comply as intended – or aren’t supported as needed. Don't risk non-compliance and hefty penalties for a poorly functioning BWMS. Replacing your existing system could be a more cost-effective solution in the long run. Having replaced over 200 systems from over 20 different makers, Alfa Laval has the expertise you can rely on to ensure compliance.

- How CWQ parameters differ from system design limitations
- When your BWMS can be bypassed – and when it can’t
- Why bypassing isn’t the simple solution it seems

壓載水處理立法
壓載水處理法規正在生效。 IMO 壓載水管理（BWM）公約已經批准，美國海岸警衛隊（USCG）立法已經生效。 我們擁有豐富的知識和十年的經驗，可以幫助您瞭解影響您的船舶的法規。
The IMO Ballast Water Management Convention
This is the global legislation that sets the rules for ballast water treatment in around 95% of the world’s ports. [Its full name is the International Convention for the Control and Management of Ship’s Ballast Water and Sediments] In addition, On 28 October 2020, the IMO revised G8 guidelines (the BMWS Code) for type approving ballast water treatment systems went into effect.
The U.S. Coast Guard Ballast Water Discharge Final Rule
Known more simply as the USCG Final Rule, this is the ballast water treatment legislation that applies when sailing in United States waters. Its requirements are similar to – but slightly different from – those in the IMO BWM Convention. Some specific rules may apply in certain regions or ports, but the regulations above guide nearly all ballast water treatment decisions.
