Fitted to a port-based ballast water reception barge, InTank\u2019s non-filter and in-tank treatment makes receiving water from a discharging vessel very simple.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Scalable and Flexible: ideal for retrofits and temporary applications, the container design can be mounted on the deck or placed on a temporary platform for operation. The system&#8217;s compact design allows it to be housed in a standard 20-foot container, facilitating worldwide shipping. InTank water treatment is not linked to ballast operations, removing stress during intake and discharge.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018<em>The application for the SciencoFAST InTank Container is for up to 50,000 DWT (or system can treat 500-5,000 m3 of ballast water, up to 12 tanks (upgradeable) and all water types), which is a significant portion of the market. UniBallast offers this as both a product and a service, and this new capability not only simplifies ballast water management but empowers ship-owners and operators to achieve compliance with confidence and ease<\/em>\u2019 said <strong>Rudy Mes, Sr. Vice President<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The InTank Container is for hire or purchase and is available for ordering starting 2025.\u00a0 Demonstrations are available in Rotterdam and additional product information is available at info@uniballast.nl or intank@sciencofast.com<\/p>\n<p><em>About Scienco\/FAST\u00ae<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Scienco\/FAST\u00ae InTank\u00ae, a subsidiary of BioMicrobics, Inc., is a leading global manufacturer of Ballast Water Treatment Systems (BWTS) and Marine Sanitation Devices (MSD).\u00a0 Its innovative, advanced BWTS treats ballast water in the ballast tank during voyage &#8211; no port operations required, ballast water compliance with better water management achieved.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>About UniBallast<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>UniBallast is a ballast water treatment service provider, helping sea going vessels, barges, yachts and ports comply with USCG\/IMO regulations.
