MARINE WATER TREATMENT SYSTEM BUILT INTO DOCK BOX FOR HIGH-PRESSURE BOAT WASH AND ONBOARD WATER SUPPLY
A marine water treatment dock box system is provided. The marine water treatment dock box system securely houses a water softener, a deionizer, a high-pressure washer and a selective control system for diverting water for cleaning a docked vessel, for onboard use by the vessel, and/or for high-quality potable water production. The above-mentioned components are operatively associated to outlets disposed along the exterior of the dock box body, maintaining the security and protection of the components. The water softener may be fluidly connected to an inlet to the dock box and a three-way valve for selectively controlling the softened water to one of the following: (1) a high-pressure pump for washing a vessel; (2) to the deionizing tanks for dissolving solids for a spot-free rinse; and or (3) to an outlet to fill onboard fresh water tanks.

BALLAST WATER TREATMENT SYSTEM AND METHOD OF DRIVING THE SAME
The present invention relates to a ballast water treatment system including an air compressor for compressing air; an air receiver tank for receiving the compressed air from the air compressor and storing the compressed air; an oxygen generator for generating oxygen from the air supplied from the air receiver tank; an oxygen receiver tank for storing the oxygen supplied from the oxygen generator; an ozone generator for generating ozone from the oxygen supplied from the oxygen receiver tank; a ballast water pump for pumping ballast water; an inflow line for transferring the ballast water from the ballast water pump; a ballast water tank for receiving the ballast water from the inflow line and storing the ballast water; and an ozone injector for injecting the ozone into the ballast water of the inflow line.
Overflow protection and monitoring apparatus and methods of installing same
Overflow protection and monitoring devices capable of coupling to a drainage pan and may include: a drainage line; a base, the base including an input port; a dry section; and a wet section, the input port capable of coupling to the drainage pan; a base cover, the base cover removably coupled to the base, the base cover including a base cover output port capable of coupling to the drainage line; a fluid displacement mechanism located in the wet section, the fluid displacement mechanism including a fluid displacement mechanism output port; a fluid detection mechanism located in the wet section; and a base attachment, the base attachment coupled to the fluid displacement mechanism output port and the base cover output port, the base attachment including an air relief port and back-flow preventer; a control unit capable of energizing the fluid displacement mechanism upon receiving a signal from the fluid detection mechanism.
Dehydrogenation tank and ballast water treatment system having the same
The present invention provides a dehydrogenation tank. An atomization spray is disposed at the center of the upper part of the dehydrogenation tank, and flow stirring modules used for stirring a flowing solution are respectively disposed at the middle and the bottom of the dehydrogenation tank. Each of the two flow stirring modules includes at least two layers of flow stirring meshes. By means of disposing the atomizing spray and the flow stirring modules in the dehydrogenation tank, the TRO solution flowing into the dehydrogenation tank are fully stirred, so that hydrogen gas mixed with the TRO solution is able to diffuse out fully and rapidly, thereby increasing dehydrogenation efficiency as well as reducing volume of the dehydrogenation tank. In addition, the present invention also provides a ballast water treatment system having the dehydrogenation tank.
Marine exhaust gas scrubbing and ballast water disinfection system
A combination marine exhaust gas scrubber and ballast disinfection system using seawater/water surrounding a ship to reduce/scrub smoke-stack emissions and produce a disinfected seawater/water for ballast, which can then be periodically or continually discharged back into the seawater/water body without concern for the spread of non-invasive species.
Liquid sensing switch
A liquid sensing switch comprising an upper sensor plate linked to electronics, a lower sensor plate linked to the electronics, and a ground linked to the electronics, wherein a pump is activated when a liquid level rises above a position of the lower sensor plate and above a position of the upper sensor plate, causing a current to pass between the two sensor plates.
Ballast Water Treatment System
The present invention relates to a ballast water treatment system and method. The ballast water treatment system comprises of at least one ballast tank, at least one mixing nozzle, a treatment unit, wherein the treatment unit comprises an electrochlorination module and a dechlorination module, a dosing module, wherein the dosing module is coupled to the treatment unit, and a control system. The method comprises introducing ballast water into at least one ballast tank disposed on the vessel, circulating at least a portion of the ballast water between the at least one ballast tank and a dosing module, generating a disinfectant via a treatment unit, wherein the treatment unit comprises an electrochlorination unit and a dechlorination module, and delivering the disinfectant from the treatment unit to the circulating ballast water at the dosing module.
A SYSTEM AND A METHOD FOR HEAT TREATMENT OF WATER OF A VESSEL
A system and a method are for heat treatment of water of a vessel outside a fixed installation of the vessel. The water includes ballast water of the vessel and/or waste water from hull cleaning of the vessel. The system includes a system inlet; a system outlet; a heat application section; and a heat treatment piping system. A heat recovering section includes two parts for exchanging heat. The heat treatment piping system couples the system inlet to the system outlet via: one of the parts of the heat recovering section, the heat application section and the other part of the heat recovering section. The system does not form part of a fixed installation of the vessel.
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROL OF AQUATIC INVASIVE SPECIES USING HYDROXIDE STABILIZATION
An airlift, water mixing system that passes biocides, algaecides and gas through a ship's ballast water tanks and its pipping to control water PH. Vertically moving diffusion grids provide air sparging in treated ballast water that accommodates variances in ballast water levels without changes in pressure or power used by an air compressor connected to a diffusion grid.
