The pressure vacuum reactor working in combination with the vertical ballast water drop line ensures a sudden pressure reduction from the required 2 bar at the inlet of the P/V reactor, down to a pressure marginally above a perfect vacuum. This sudden pressure reduction eliminates, i.e. pulverizes the majority of the organisms. Any remaining algae or bacteria are effectively eliminated by the UV chamber mounted downstream on the P/V reactor.
