If your tanker uses submersible cargo pumps, you have maximum space for money-making cargo. But without a pump room, there’s no internal space for a ballast water treatment system. Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 Ex deckhouses make it easy to install on the weather deck, providing a complete, pre-assembled solution for tanker needs – including an integrated booster pump unit. Durable and purpose-designed, they safeguard compliance by protecting your PureBallast 3 Ex system throughout its lifetime.
Get a close look at an Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 Ex deckhouse by taking a virtual tour on board a tanker. Use your computer or a VR headset to explore this purpose-designed solution for installation on the weather deck.
The weather deck is a harsh place, so it takes more than a container to protect the ballast water treatment system – and your compliance. Our short guide explains the deckhouse demands.
The number of customers choosing PureBallast 3 for ballast water treatment on their tankers continues to grow.
Kuwait Oil Tanker Company (KOTC) is one of many ship owners choosing UV ballast water treatment over electrochlorination for large ballast water flows. Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 will be installed on vessels throughout the KOTC fleet, including VLCCs with flows of 6000 m3/h each.
TORM, an international product tanker owner and operator based in Denmark, will retrofit 36 Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 Ex systems within its existing fleet and fit PureBallast 3 Ex systems on 11 new builds. Alfa Laval will provide large-flow ballast water treatment systems for 36 vessels between 2019 and 2024.
A wide range of system advantages and dedicated technical solutions make PureBallast 3 the ideal choice for ballast water treatment on tankers.
Your tanker may require hundreds of thousands of tons of ballast water – which means large ballast water flows. PureBallast 3 handles even very large flows with a small footprint and low power consumption, thanks in part to a 1500 m3/h reactor size. Single systems can handle up to 3000 m3/h, while dual systems can be used for coverage up to 6000 m3/h.
Based in Glyfada, Greece, Millenia Maritime Inc. is an international ship management company that transports oil products with a fleet of double-hull MR tankers and its management takes pride in doing modern and efficient business. That includes choosing Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 Ex ballast water treatment systems in deckhouses – and completing successful retrofits in record time.
If your tanker carries volatile cargo, it has to meet the stringent requirements for potentially explosive environments. PureBallast 3 Ex systems are configured according to ATEX and IECEx, Zone 1, IIC and T4, with redundant safety features and lamp cabinets that are located in the safe zone up to 150 m from the reactors they serve.
Installing a ballast water treatment system on deck shouldn’t mean problems for your existing submersible ballast pumps. The technical teams for Alfa Laval ballast water treatment systems and Framo pumping systems have developed a solution for providing additional pumping head when PureBallast 3 Ex is installed in a deckhouse.
