Marine Industry
Achieve environmental & operational control
The marine industry constantly strives to improve its operations and risk management. Issues include:
- Compliance with the Ballast Water Discharge Standard to stop the spread of aquatic invasive species
- Systems failure and fuel system blockage caused by microbiologically influenced corrosion
- Pathogenic infection of crew members and passengers E.coli, Salmonella, Legionella, and more
- Control of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19
Ballast water management
The introduction of harmful aquatic organisms and pathogens to new environments through ballast water poses a significant threat to our oceans.
To mitigate the risk, the International Marine Organization Ballast Water Management Convention and the United States Coast Guard have developed strict regulations for ballast water management, stating that all ships must meet regulatory standards when discharging ballast water by 2024.
Our robust testing solution can help you navigate this requirement.
Monitor all microbial contamination risk
With LuminUltra, you gain insight into what is happening with your systems’ microbiology – as well as acquire awareness of the associated risks of ecological threat, human health, economic impact of corrosion, systems failure and effluent discharge violations.
Deal with issues in real time
Get results in minutes – rather than days or weeks. Use convenient data to prevent issues and costly interruptions. Access the data you need to guide your disinfection and cleaning cycles and reduce operational risk. With our in-field solution, there’s no need to send samples to a lab.
Gain resource flexibility
Don’t worry about deploying specialized crew to handle your testing. Our solutions are totally mobile, can be used with minimal training, and do not require dedicated personnel.
See the complete picture
Create the most effective action plan for any incident. Identify long-term potential cost reduction in maintenance and loss created by systems and equipment failure. Our equipment is multi-functional and can be used with a variety of test kits.
Effectively manage risks in real time
Analyze onboard ballast water, drinking water, wastewater, sanitary network, fuel and lubricants, fire fighting networks, and galley and food preparation – using the same equipment – with our marine-focused solutions.
