BALLAST WATER TREATMENT METHOD, USE OF A BIOCIDE FOR ONE SUCH TREATMENT AND INSTALLATION FOR TRANSFERRING BALLAST WATER TO A SHIP

摘要

The invention relates to a method for the treatment of ship ballast water, in which the ballast water introduced into the ship is subsequently discharged. According to the invention, the ballast water is treated in situ using least one biocide product and/or the ballast water is agitated before being released. The use of said method is optimised following analysis of the pumped water. The invention also relates to an installation for transferring ballast water, comprising pipes for pumping seawater, pipes for releasing ballast water, at least one ballast pump and a device for distributing the ballast water. Moreover, an additional tapping is provided on the ballast water pumping pipe before or after the ballast pump.
