APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR BALLAST WATER TREATMENT USING PLASMA

摘要

Disclosed are an apparatus and method for ballast water treatment using plasma. Said ballast water treatment apparatus comprises a DC power supply part that supplies DC power, a capacitor that connects to the output terminal of said DC power supply part and stores electrical energy supplied by said DC power supply part; and a ballast water treatment part that connects with both terminals of said capacitor, generates plasma from the energy stored in said capacitor, and delivers the impact energy generated by said plasma to the ballast water. Said embodiment has the advantage of treating the marine microorganisms included in ballast water in real time, by delivering the impact energy caused by plasma generation to the ballast water.
