Ballast water treatment systems refer to various products that assist in removing the impurities in ballast water, normally used by shipping vehicles to maintain balance and stability. Ballast water taken up by ships at the port contains many harmful and toxic organisms. A wide variety of applications for ballast water treatment systems has resulted in increased demand for these products. Ballast water treatment technologies are used to remove or destroy pesticide active ingredients and other pollutants in the ballast water and prevent discharge of invasive species in the new aquatic ecosystem.
Pumps are vital for the optimum operation of water desalination plants. Well-designed and properly operating desalination plants require precise pumps. Notably, pumps constitute a relatively smaller part of a desalination plant's total capital expenditure. However, they play a critical role in determining the productivity and efficiency of a system, and ROI. Inefficiency and downtime may lead to significant loss of production and revenue.
