The risk of introducing harmful aquatic organisms, pathogens, and associated sediments from the ship's ballast water should be minimized. 

So the treatment process of the ballast water management system (BWMS) needs filtration.

Filter elements and filter discs can effectively remove suspended solids from ballast water by performing automatic backwashing, therefore, they are widely used in ballast water filtration. They are very environmentally friendly as they do not use toxic chemicals in ballast water.
