GERMAN owner Hansa Shipping and Chinese shipyard Jiangsu New Yangzi Shipbuilding have decided to equip four new 4,800-TEU ships with the German ballast water treatment technology "CleanBallast" developed by RWO, a subsidiary of Veolia Water Solutions & Technologies, reports MarineLink.com.
The technology is scheduled for the delivery over the course of 2012. Incidentally, Veolia also owns Hong Kong Tramways.
"We have picked RWO knowing that we are dealing with a sensitive and important task for the future," said Dejan Golub, superintendent of Hansa Shipping.
"RWO has long and comprehensive knowledge, as well as sustainable experience in marine water processing. Therefore, we are absolutely convinced that we will have the right partner in achieving excellent performance," he said.
"We trust that the technical solution of the RWO system, using a reliable, powerful and redundant filtration system, together with the well proven electrochemical disinfection unit, will bring us the benefit of meeting even stricter requirements than the present ones," said Mr Golub.
To complete the water treatment system of the new vessels, Hansa Shipping has also decided to install RWO's WWT-LC plants for onboard sewage treatment, as well as its oil-water separators SKIT/S-DEB to ensure best results in treating oily water, the report added.
