Environmental Services All Figures SGS
2 Introduction Rapid, indicative on board testing of ballast water demands the development of technical systems for : representative on board sampling adequate methods for : rapid, indicative on board analysis EFFECTIVE NEW TECHNOLOGIES FOR THE ASSESSMENT OF COMPLIANCE WITH THE BALLAST WATER MANAGEMENT CONVENTION Federal German Maritime and Hydrographic Agency
3 Technical Aspects of Representative Sampling Representativeness of ballast water volume Adequate timing of sampling procedures Representativeness of organism concentration (1) Adequate sampling ports (2) Adequate sampling system 3
4 Representative Sampling Sampling system sampling system ballast water main pipe Criteria isokinetic sampling adequate filtration variable sample volume minimal waste water volume easy, rapid sampling procedures applicable for all pipe systems on all ships Closed sampling system 4

12 Representative Sampling Critical parameters and adjustment of basic values target organisms must not be killed by sampling (filtration) Critical parameter for organism survival : flow velocity in the sampling system the diameter of the isokinetic sampling pipe decides on the flow velocity in the sampling system the volume flow in the sampling system decides on the time requirements for sampling 12
13 Representative Sampling Critical parameters and adjustment of basic values target organisms must not be killed by sampling (filtration) Adjustment of basic values for critical parameters Critical parameter for organism survival : the maximum pipe diameter flow velocity of the in the sampling system cannot exceed 2 inch the flow velocity the diameter to safely of the sample isokinetic plankton sampling organisms pipe decides is limited on the to flow 0,45 to 0,65 m/s velocity in the sampling system the volume flow in the sampling system decides on the time requirements for sampling 13
