Glosten, MSI, and Alfa Laval Deliver Ballast Treatment Deck Modules

Ballast Treatment System Deck Module partners Marine Systems Inc., Glosten, and Alfa Laval recently delivered a pair of first-of-its-kind modular ballast water treatment units specially designed for tank barge and ship operations.
Each Ballast Module, packing a treatment capacity of 1,000 m3/hr within a twenty-foot shipping container footprint, is ABS and US Coast Guard approved for hazardous area installations. The efficient module reduces the technical demands on busy shipyards during traditionally jam-packed shipyard periods. Rather than juggle the independent components and vendors required for a traditional ballast water treatment system installation, shipyards can instead focus on fabricating a few well defined interfaces and foundation system. Each purchased module comes pre-approved by USCG and ABS, is fully tested prior to shipment, and includes integration support from MSI and Glosten engineers.
