Comparisons of interdisciplinary ballast water treatment systems and operational experiences from ships.
There are high functioning and low functioning ballast water treatment systems on board ships. In this study, five systems were analysed so as to methodically examine the operational difficulties for ship crew members while giving important consideration to sustainable environment practices. Multi-criteria analysis, a questionnaire, survey and interviews were used as the research method so as t...
متن کاملBallast Water Analysis And Heat Treatment Using Waste Heat Recovery Systems On Board Ships
Ballast water contains a variety of organisms including bacteria, viruses and the adult and larval stages of the many marine and coastal plants and animals. As such, it poses serious ecological, economic and health problems and has serious negative effects on the global environment. This paper presents a new efficient ballast water analysis and heat treatment system using waste heat recovery sy...
متن کاملPotential microbial bioinvasions via ships' ballast water, sediment, and biofilm.
A prominent vector of aquatic invasive species to coastal regions is the discharge of water, sediments, and biofilm from ships' ballast-water tanks. During eight years of studying ships arriving to the lower Chesapeake Bay, we developed an understanding of the mechanisms by which invasive microorganisms might arrive to the region via ships. Within a given ship, habitats included ballast water, ...
متن کاملThresholds for tracing ships’ ballast water: an Australian case study
To limit the spread of non-indigenous marine species, ships can be legally required to conduct ballast water exchange (BWE) prior to discharging ballast water. It has been proposed to verify BWE by measuring concentrations of coastal tracers in ballast tanks, which should track their removal. Using 3 Australian ports as case studies (Port Botany, Port Curtis and Port Phillip Bay), each represen...
متن کاملofficers ’ operational experiences with electronic chart display and information systems on ships
In this paper, authors suggest an improvement in the electronic chart display and information system handling. Electronic nautical charts provide significant benefits to maritime navigation as a real time navigation system and all updates are important. This paper analyses the electronic chart use experiences on board ships. A questionnaire and survey were used so as to ascertain and corroborat...
