Global Ballast Water Treatment Systems Market Definition

Ballast Water Treatment System refers to the water treatment system found on ships. This system is carried out in two stages such as mechanical separation or filtration and physical or chemical treatment. Mechanical separation or filtration can be carried out with screen filters. Screen filters can effectively remove sediments and a large number of microorganisms in the ballast tanks.

Secondary treatment or physical or chemical treatment is carried out with different forms of treatments. These different forms include chemical disinfection, UV treatment, deoxygenation, heat treatment, and ultrasonic treatment. Chemical disinfection uses chemicals such as chemicals, to disinfect water by deactivating microorganisms in the ballast water. It is the most common and cost-effective secondary treatment of all. But even after chemical disinfection, the treated water needs neutralization or detoxification before the final de-ballasting.

UV treatment refers to the application of ultra-violet light in the ballast water treatment. UV light strikes the DNA of the microbes and makes them inactive, non-viable, and incapable of reproduction. Ultrasonic treatments, also known as cavitation treatment, apply high-energy ultrasound that breaks the cell wall of the microorganisms down to kill them completely.

Global Ballast Water Treatment Systems Market Overview

The demand for Ballast Water Treatment Systems is growing with higher CAGR as the need to maintain the marine environment is growing. Marine logistics is growing around the world due to the globalization, industrialization, growth in and expansion of the business of multinational companies, and the rest of the other factors. Marine logistics offer different benefits over air and road logistics. It can carry a large volume at a time at a very low cost. Also, shipping containers can be easily transported further by road or rail transport to their destinations.

Thus, whenever ships come to the new port, they can carry the risk to introduce alien species to the new water area around the port. Such risk can have harmful effects such as microbial exposure, lower habitat quality, and other dangers that can ultimately harm fishing and even protected species in the region. Therefore, governments of different developed countries are taking initiatives to protect the marine environment.

The United States Coast Guards are developing and enforcing regulations to prevent the introduction of alien species into the marine environment around the coastal area and port area. Hence, the various initiatives by the governments are fueling the growth of the Global Ballast Water Treatment Systems Market. Furthermore, UV treatment has various benefits over other secondary treatments; thus, demand for the treatment is growing.

UV treatment uses ultra-violet light to kill the alien species in the ballast water by striking the DNA of the alien species. It doesn’t just break the DNA of the microbes down but also makes them incapable of reproduction. Also, it doesn’t need to be adopted in conjunction with other types of treatments. Furthermore, the technological advancements in the Ballast Water Treatment Systems and growing demand for the system from the developing and underdeveloped economies around the world might create future opportunities for the Global Ballast Water Treatment Systems Market to grow over the forecasted period.

However, the efficiency of some types of secondary treatments can be hampered by a high number of total suspended solids in the ballast water. Also, heat treatment takes a longer time to treat water completely and the heat used during the treatment can cause corrosion in the ballast water tanks. Therefore, such factors, consumption of a high amount of energy during the treatment procedure, and the rest of the other factors might strangle the growth of the Global Ballast Water Treatment Systems Market.
