H.I.Fraser is the Australian for Hyde Marine Ballast Water Treatment Soultions (BWTS). The Hyde Marine BWTS offers an effective and reliable solution based on solids separation and UV irradiation. The Hyde Marine system utilizes existing ballast pumps and piping. Standard systems are available for flow rates from 60m3/h up to 1500m3/h and customized systems up to 6000m3/h.
The Hyde Marine BWTS is optimized for each particular vessel design and operating conditions. The system includes appropriate pretreatment to remove solids and large organisms. For smaller ballast systems and applications where high solids removal is desired, the Hyde Filter is economical and practical. The Hyde UV destroys or inactivates biological organisms including zooplankton, algae, bacteria and pathogens from ballast water without affecting the normal operation of the ship. Ballast water is also treated during de-ballasting to ensure the maximum effect.
