Given the demand to improve stability and balance in unfavorable weather conditions, ballast water in a ship’s ballast tank has been an essential component for the safe operations of ships. Other than just adjusting the overall weight of the vessel to distribute it evenly throughout the ship, ballast water management becomes all the more important during loading and unloading, thereby, providing more stability and maneuverability during transit.
Mandatory Implementation of Ballast Water Management Convention Fostering Market Growth
Tight regulations by International Maritime Organization (IMO) to prevent spreading of potentially harmful aquatic pathogens and organisms in the ballast water is a key factor driving the demand for ballast water treatment system in ships. Moreover, loading and unloading untreated ballast water is a major threat to the environment, public health, and overall economy considering the transfer of organisms from one ecosystem to another, stringency in regulations pushing owners to install or retrofit ballast water treatment system for ships would further drive up the sales of ballast water treatment system.

IMO’s Marine Environment Protection Committee, in its 72nd meeting 2018, emphasizing on the importance of mandatory ballast water sampling to check if the ballast water management system installed on ships complied with the IMO’s Ballast Water Management Convention D-2 standards.
However, the regulations are not just assigned for the ship owners, but also for the ballast water treatment system providers as these systems need to be approved by IMO. When used in the United States, ballast water treatment system also need a U.S. type approval. Companies providing ballast water treatment system, consequently seeking approvals both the governing bodies.
For instance, Ecochlor announced the complete harmonization of USGC Type Approval to their IMO Type Approval for their ballast water treatment system. Similarly, Hyundai Heavy Industries Co., Ltd., also received the USCG Type Approval for its ballast water treatment system. Techcross was another provider of ballast water treatment system who received the USCG Type Approval certificate.
