Installation
Ecochlor’s Ballast Water Treatment
Systems are ideally suited for installation on
the largest bulker sand tankers in the world.
The Ecochlor ClO2 Treatment module is self contained, fully automated, and is suitable for new construction or retro-fits. This module can be located nearly anywhere on the vessel and does not need to be located in the engine room. In the engine room, only the filtration system and a small spool piece (for a flow meter and a chemical injection point) are installed in the main ballast line.
Ecochlor has complete installation design specification and drawing packages for the world’s largest ships developed in conjunction with prominent shipbuilders and classification societies.

Cargo Vessels with Large Scale Ecochlor Systems
Ecochlor's first commercial scale systems were installed on the Atlantic Compass owned by Atlantic Container Line, and the Moku Pahu managed by Matson Navigation on behalf of the Hawaiian Sugar and transportation Cooperative. These were the first two systems accepted into the US Coast Guard's Shipboard Testing and Evaluation Program (STEP) in 2008. The most recent installation was in the Buenos Aires owned by Sojitz.
