Ballast water treatment system for ships OptiMarin

The Type Approved OptiMarin Ballast System (OBS), is based on solid separation (filter) as pre-treatment and high doses of UV irradiation for inactivation of marine organisms, viruses and bacteria, without affecting the normal operation of the ship. Ballast water is UV treated both during ballasting and de-ballasting to ensure the dual UV effect. Ballast water is only filtered during ballasting.
The OptiMarin Ballast System (OBS) can easily be installed in existing or new ships and can handle flows up to 7000 m3/h. The MicroKill Medium Pressure UV can handle almost any flow when multiple reactors are built into a manifold system.
The components in the OptiMarinSystem are flexible; the installation is normally in the pump or engine room and in close proximity to the ballast pumps. The OptiMarin system uses existing ballast pumps, is small and modular, and does not restrict flow.
For certain ship types and for retrofit, the system can be delivered in a container including a booster pump for easy installation on deck or other available spaces. A skid solution can also be provided upon request.
