On November 17th, ISO 23314-2 “Risk Assessment and Risk reduction of electrolysis Ballast water Management System”, edited by Sunrui Marine Environmental Engineering Co., LTD., was officially released. This is the first international standard issued in the field of electrolytic ballast water treatment, filling the international gap in this field.
The international standard project was officially launched in 2018. The project group has organized several international conferences and solicited opinions from IMO, port State authorities, classification societies, ballast water management system manufacturers and third-party testing organizations worldwide. The standard was unanimously adopted in the Final Draft Of International Standards (FDIS) stage and endorsed by major member states such as China, the United States, Japan, South Korea, Russia, Denmark, Switzerland and Panama.
According to the REQUIREMENTS of THE IMO CODE for Ballast Water Management System Accreditation (BWMS CODE), all ballast water management systems must carry out a risk assessment during type approval. The ISO 23314-2 standard mainly provides the principles, methods and procedures for risk assessment and risk reduction, and details and supplements the BWMS CODE, providing a strong technical basis and support for global electrolysis ballast water management system manufacturers, port state authorities, classification societies and shipowners.
The successful release of this international standard fully demonstrates the technical strength of Sunrui in the field of electrolysis ballast water treatment, and further enhances the international influence of China in the field of ballast water treatment. As the first international standard maker in the field of electrolytic ballast water management system in the world, Sunrui will continue to strengthen technological upgrading and product innovation in the future, continue to improve the Marine environment with science and technology and innovation, and continue to export Chinese solutions for global Marine environmental protection.
