Key Advantages in Ballast Water Treatment
High Efficiency in Chlorine Generation
Electrolyzes seawater to produce hypochlorous acid (HOCl) and chloride ions (Cl⁻), achieving biocidal concentrations (0.5–1.0 mg/L Cl₂ equivalent) within 30 seconds.
Exceptional Seawater Corrosion Resistance
Titanium’s passive oxide layer withstands chloride-induced pitting, while the Ru-Ir coating resists degradation from hypochlorite (ClO⁻) and bromide (Br⁻) ions.In marine tests (3.3% salinity, pH 8.1), anodes maintained 98% activity after 5,000 hours of continuous operation, outperforming platinum-coated titanium by 30%.
Compliance with International Standards
Enables treatment efficiency meeting IMO D-2 standards (≤10 viable organisms per m³ for phytoplankton), as validated in Maersk’s fleet retrofits.Non-toxic coating materials avoid heavy metal leaching, complying with EU BWT regulations (2024 amendments).
Long Service Life and Low Maintenance
Operates for 3–5 years without coating degradation, reducing replacement costs by 60% versus graphite anodes.Periodic rinsing with dilute hydrochloric acid (1–2%) removes calcium-magnesium deposits, extending lifespan by 20%.
Application in Ballast Water Treatment Systems
Electrochlorination Process Integration
System Configuration: Anodes are integrated into flow-through electrolyzers installed in ballast water pipelines.
Current density: 150–200 mA/cm²
Seawater temperature: 10–35°C
Retention time: 1–2 minutes
Hybrid Treatment Systems
Combination with UV Disinfection: Anodes pre-treat water to reduce organic loads, enhancing UV efficiency by 40% in systems like the Optimarin BallastWater System.
Corrosion Protection: Anode-generated ClO⁻ also inhibits biofouling in pipelines, reducing maintenance costs for shipowners by $150,000 annually (Hapag-Lloyd data).

production
1. Substrate treatment: it needs to be treated by roughing, cleaning and removing oil, which can increase the compactness of catalytic.
2. Brushing coating:After substrate treatment, it will be proceeded brush coated. The main coated content is platinum group metal, which is a kind of mixed solution.Then, heat treatment will be going on after drying.The whole procedure need to be repeated many times. This method is better to form thin oxide catalytic that is lamellar adhere to substrate surface.
