BWTS FIT systems are suitable for both newbuildings and retrofits, points out ERMA FIRST md Konstantinos Stampedakis, while completion of the USCG approval process shows the company’s “capability to undertake and successfully complete challenging projects.”
Business development manager Helen Polychronopoulou added that system design has remained unchanged since testing for USCG approval began in late 2016, meaning equipment already supplied to customers is USCG compliant, which “proves the efficient operation and high quality of our systems,” she said.
ERMA FIRST was established in 2009 by a team of specialists in waste and water treatment. The company describes its BWTS technology as a simple solution suitable for all types and sizes of vessels, using 40 µm filtration followed by efficient full flow electrolysis. “Using an active substance that is produced by the method of electrolysis,” it explained, “any danger for re-growth of microorganisms is eliminated.”
