Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 Computer-Based Training (CBT) Ballast water management self-study, 3D simulator and self-assessment Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 Computer-Based Training (CBT) is an online/offline training tool that serves as a complement to face-to-face crew training. It combines self-study in ballast water management with a 3D simulation of the Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 ballast water treatment system (see reverse), as well as a self-assessment. As computer-based resource, PureBallast 3 CBT is available for your master and crew 24/7. • Training availability regardless of location • General knowledge of ballast water management Ballast water management is no longer tomorrow’s issue. The IMO Ballast Water Management Convention (effective September 2017) and the U.S. Coast Guard Ballast Water Discharge Standard (effective December 2013) both demand either ballast water treatment or ballast water exchange, depending on the vessel’s compliance date. Going forward, it is a must to have a functioning ballast water treatment system and a crew that is trained to operate and maintain it according to manufacturer specifications. Both IMO and the U.S. Coast Guard have made clear that training and education must cover ballast water management practices and the specifics of the ballast water treatment system. PureBallast 3 CBT helps address the challenge of keeping the master and crew on duty updated and trained, no matter where or when they board. • Confidence adhering to IMO and U.S. Coast Guard training policy • Development and assessment of crew ballast water management skills • Training availability 24/7 Content overview • Introduction to PureBallast 3 and its components • Simulated basics of PureBallast 3 operation See the reverse for detailed descriptions of the individual training components.

PureBallast 3 CBT training components Self-study session For a ballast water treatment system to operate as it should, it must be used regularly and in accordance with manufacturer specifications. Improving crew operational knowledge of the ballast water treatment system is thus important to ensure reliability. The self-study component of PureBallast 3 CBT familiarizes the crew with PureBallast 3 and covers: • An introduction to the issue of ballast water and invasive species • PureBallast 3 – system concept and components • PureBallast 3 – process description • PureBallast 3 - integration into...
