UVC radiation is a highly effective, proven
method of sterilizing and purifying water, air and surfaces. With the new Ballast Water Treatment
Convention, BWTC, that went into full effect last September of 2017, shipping
companies are required to maintain an effective system on board their
vessel. Contaminated ballast water is
considered to be one of the top 5 threats to the sustainability of the planet’s
oceans, as foreign marine organisms are picked up in one port and released in
another.
This has wreaked havoc on the fishing industry in many
shipping ports and threatened the safety of human life in cases where foreign
invaders take over without their natural predators. Jellyfish have been known to multiply to
uncontrollable levels while mussels attach to structures such as dams and
bridges causing damage by upsetting the natural ecosystem. UV lamps utilized in
ballast water sterilization systems solves this problem with a highly effective
and simple to maintain system.
UV Lamps with
Powerful Water Sterilization Effects
Ultraviolet technology is proven to sterilize
water by instantly killing bacteria, viruses and microorganisms naked to the
human eye. With powerful wavelengths
emitted at 254 nanometer, nm, the DNA of these living organisms is immediately
altered making them unable to replicate rendering them harmless.
