Marland Has New MSD For Smaller Vessels- Literature Available Marland Environmental Sys- tems, Inc., Walworth, Wise., a leading manufacturer of sewage treatment systems for large com- mercial vessels, has introduced a flow-through Type II Marine San- itation Device (MSD) for work- boats of small to medium crew size. The new device, named Sani- System® 40, is said to offer sev- eral advantages. The Sani-System 40 comprises four compact modules designed to fit into the limited spaces avail- able on a working vessel. Yet, with its compact size, it provides a daily treatment capacity of 40 gallons (151 liters), ample for a crew of eight. Use of an addi- tional collection module can boost capacity by 50 percent. An anaerobic system requiring no blowers, the system is said to be completely odor-free. It oper- ates with fresh, salt, or brackish water; with any available voltage; and with any standard manual or electric marine toilets. Regular maintenance is minimal, requiring but a minute or two every two weeks. And because the system has no moving parts other than the pump included in the treat- ment module, trouble-free opera- tion is assured. "We feel that the Sani-System 40 is the ideal unit for any boat with a complement up to 12," says Marland vice president Bob Dan- iels. "It complies with all Coast Guard and IMCO standards for a You've got to play in a lot of games before you can coach at Savannah. For 22 years, Roy Gradick has been on the same team. Savannah.
