Evoqua Water Technologies have announced to join forces with Hai Cheung, a marine equipment supplier to the Chines market. Hai Cheung will support Chinese shipyards with the supply and service of Evoqua’s SeaCure ballast water management system.
In a second phase of the agreement[ds_preview], the Hong Kong-based engineering company will then produce the SeaCure system under licence to facilitate demand from Chinese yards.
According to Evoqua the demand for a complete ballast water treatment solution, including design, installation and aftermarket support will grow, following the ratification of the IMO Convention. An expansive international network of organizations, sharing knowledge and expertise, is the best way to meet this market demand the company believes.
Evoqua‘s SeaCure system is an electrochlorination ballast water management solution that has been developed to meet the IMO and USCG regulations, in all three salinities. The system is based around three main pillars of filtration, electrochlorination and proprietary ORP-control logic. Utilising the trusted Chloropac electrolyser, the system produces hypochlorite through the electrochlorination process to provide effective ballast water management.
