Ecochlor’s treatment technology is unique, using chlorine dioxide(ClO2) and generated by a simple process on board the vessel to treat the ballast water during a single pass at uptake. The system does not treat on discharge and there is no need for a neutralization stage.
The Ecochlor BWMS offers a number of advantages over other techniques. It is completely effective in all water types and conditions without the need for crew to adjust the operating parameters. This technology allows for a consistent, easy-to-use system for the crew without any uncertainty over its effectiveness when faced with varying water types.
The Ecochlor BWMS is a top-of-the-line system due to its very high reliability and unmatched customer support program. Ecochlor’s three “Pillars of Reliability” include: simple technology; high quality engineering and construction; and, guaranteed shipboard visits two times per year. The Ecochlor BWMS is backed by EcoCare®, the only ballast water treatment efficacy compliance guarantee in the industry.
Steve Candito, Ecochlor’s CEO said: “With more than 16 years in the industry, Ecochlor has a long history of providing timely and expert support to our customers in keeping their ballast water management system in compliance. We are not in this business for the short-term, our focus is to continue to offer shipowners the reliable performance of our system necessary for global shipping both now and in the future.”
