Establishing equivalency in the performance testing and compliance monitoring of emerging alternative Ballast Water Management Systems

The International Convention on the Control and Management Ships’ Ballast Water and Sediments was adopted by IMO member States in February 2004, and is commonly known as the Ballast Water Management (BWM) Convention. The Convention’s Regulations and Guidelines cover all facets of BWM, including the performance, safety and compliance testing requirements and procedures for ballast water exchange (BWE) and on-board ballast water treatment (BWT).
