May 23, 2011 -- Ballast water treatment systems from RWO Marine Water Technology have been ordered by a Japanese shipyard for three Cypriot tankers currently being built.
RWO, a part of Veolia Water Solutions & Technologies, manufactures the CleanBallast™ ballast water treatment system, which features a maximum capacity of 3,000 m³/h.
The ballast water treatment systems were ordered by Sumitomo Heavy Industries Marine & Engineering, a shipyard located in Yokosuka, Japan, that has built in excess of 1,300 ships. They will be installed in 2012 in three Aframax tankers currently being built for a Cypriot shipowner.
The systems will be equipped with several of RWO's advanced disinfection systems operating in parallel, allowing the system to satisfy differing rates of ballasting and de-ballasting.
Medium- and low voltage equipment specifiers can adopt digital twin technology to adopt a circular economy approach for sustainable, low-carbon equipment design.
Medium- and low voltage equipment manufacturers can prepare for environmental regulations now by using innovative MV switchgear design that eliminates SF6 use.
Using digital tools and apps for nearby monitoring and control increases safety and reduces arc flash hazards since electrical equipment can be operated from a safer distance....
