Mitsubishi VOS Ballast Water Treatment System

The Mitsubishi VOS*1 ballast water treatment system is the first of its kind to be certified as meeting the Regulation D-2 Ballast Water Performance Standard under the IMO*2 International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships' Ballast Water and Sediments.
VOS Systems are installed in many vessels ranging in size from general cargo vessels with a system throughput of 150 ㎥/hr to super tankers (VLCC) with a throughput of 6,800 ㎥/hr.
The main components of the system are widely used in the shipping industry and the system also serves to protect deterioration of ballast tank paint and reduce wear of sacrificial or galvanic anodes.
