METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROL OF AQUATIC INVASIVE SPECIES USING HYDROXIDE STABILIZATION

摘要

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.
