A system for treating ballast water in ballast tanks onboard vessels is provided. The system comprises one or more ballast tanks, a circulation pump circulating or recirculating, via a tubing, ballast water from and to the one or more ballast tanks, a nitrogen and/or carbon dioxide generator connected to the tubing on the delivery side of the recirculation pump in such a manner that nitrogen and/or carbon dioxide can be supplied to the ballast water, and one or more nozzle heads functionally connected to the tubing and arranged in one or more ballast tanks. The one or more nozzle heads comprises at least one nozzle for injecting the gas-containing water into the ballast tanks. At least one nozzle is configured for powered rotation about a first and a second axis which is perpendicular or not perpendicular to the first axis to the effect that a three-dimensional mixer pattern is produced. |
