At the same time, most operators do not want to spend a lot of / time or money tending and maintaining this equipment. At Coffin World Water / Systems (CWWS), we believe you should not have to. And we have USCG jZ^TwM / certifications for IMOMEPC.107(49) compliance—the first issued worldwide! — 'G n^ugi' "v / t0 show we mean business. HI —IJ- / When MEPC. 107(49) takes effect on January 1, 2005, every new BWS installation on fp :§ m iil vessels over 400 gross tons will be required to separate both free and emulsified oils to I jP^mL 'ess ^an 15 ppm before discharging bilge water overboard. The new regulation raises the • TSP^TV | bar for BWS performance —well beyond the capability of conventional .fr , I . separators designed to handle free oils only. We're ready...are you? Building on extensive research in all possible technologies for . Lwig^^B separating emulsified oils from water, CWWS now offers an efficient BWS system that ensures trouble-free operation at the lowest possible cost under a wide range of shipboard operating PPHfifii^^^^^H conditions. Unlike batch systems using chemicals or biological agents, our ULTRA-SEP® Bilge gjSIWater Separators are engineered for continuous operation — a key IMO requirement— EQEBOw^^^^^l ancl f^Quire minimal operator intervention. And our systems separate both mechanically and chemically emulsified oils. Our proven technology combines a coalescing separator with proprietary ultra-filtration membranes to optimize performance in both ULTRA-SEP processing phases. The first stage handles free oils using the same technology familiar to operators using more than 6,000 of our HELI-SEP® oily water separators delivered around the world since 1982. And our SPIR-O-LATOR® membranes in the second stage have been used for demanding applications in shoreside terminals for years. ULTRA-SEP systems reduce oil-in-water to less than 5 ppm — performance that meets the strictest standards of the world's most environmentally sensitive regions and cruise ports. PLUS, all that performance and efficiency is packed into a compact footprint that fits existing floor plans with minimal disruption. Available in pre-piped and pre-wired skid assemblies in eight models from .25 to 10 cubic meters per hour capacity—all carrying USCG certification to MEPC.107(49).
