How can Seaways Mobile Water Treatment Platform treat excess dredge waters?
When contaminated dredged muds are deposited into barges for transport, free or excess dredge water, which is brought up with the contaminated sediments, can occupy a large volume of the barge. This water must be contained and brought to shore where it is treated prior to its return to the receiving water. Seaway’s mobile water treatment platform (MWTP) provides the means to treat excess dredge water at the source thereby increasing the transport capacity of the barge and eliminating the need for onshore water treatment of this contaminated water.
