ABOUT BAWAT

Bawat markets its patented ballast water management system (“BWMS”) globally, a cost efficient, flexible, and sustainable solution to the problem of ballast water treatment. While ballast water is essential for modern shipping operations, it also poses ecological, economic and health problems due to the multitude of marine species and pathogens inadvertently transferred between ecosystems when ballast water is dumped. Using otherwise wasted excess onboard engine heat to achieve pasteurization, Bawat’s system offers several advantages over other ballast water treatment technologies. In addition to negligible operating cost and environmental impact, the advantages include better efficacy, the absence of harmful chemicals, and not least, an ability to function equally well in seawater, brackish water, and freshwater. Bawat’s system is suited for on-board vessel solutions and at-port (land based) containerized installations and is the only heat-based system on the market today. The system is approved by both the International Maritime Organization and the U.S. Coast Guard.
