Abstract:
The present invention describes a method and system for managing ballast water in a sea vessel. The method includes purifying ballast water while filling one or more ballast tanks of the sea vessel in shallow water and exchanging ballast water in deep water, whereby exchanging ballast water includes filling and discharging ballast water in one or more ballast tanks of the sea vessel. The one or more ballast tanks of the sea vessel are filled with ballast water through an inlet at a first pre- determined pressure level. Simultaneous to filling one or more ballast tanks of the sea vessel, ballast water is discharged from one or more ballast tanks through an outlet at a second pre-determined pressure level.
