• Short History of Hyde Marine Inc.
• Hyde Marine traces its origins back to the Hyde
  Windlass Company established in Bath, Maine in
  1865 Hydes main office is now in Cleveland,
  Ohio
• Hyde Marine began their involvement with ballast
  water Management in the 1960s with patented Mud
  Remover chemicals to keep ballast tanks clean of
  sediments.
• Today Hyde Marine is a leading supplier of
  Ballast Water Treatment and Marine environmental
  products, with offices in several countries and a
  growing network of Agents and Service Partners
  around the world.

• Hyde Ballast Water Treatment History
• 1996 - Teamed up with the University of Michigan
  to study technologies for BWT, for ships
  operating in the Great Lakes 
• 1997 - Hyde was the engineering contractor for
  the Great Lakes Ballast Technology Demonstration
  Project , one of the first BWT research programs
  in North America
• 2000 Hyde installed what was probably the
  FIRST full scale BWT system aboard the cruise
  ship M/S Regal Princess
• 2001 - Four additional systems installed, two
  on cruise ships and one each on a container ship
  and parcel chemical tanker

Hyde Ballast Water Treatment History

• 2003 - The first Hyde GUARDIAN system installed
  aboard the cruise ship M/S Coral Princess based
  on lessons learned from earlier installations
• 2006 - Second Hyde GUARDIAN installed aboard
  the cruise ship M/S Celebrity Mercury
• 2008 - Six Hyde GUARDIAN systems delivered for
  two new Royal Navy Aircraft Carriers (CVF)
• 2009 Hyde GUARDIAN for Tropical Shipping (qty
  undefined)

The Hyde GUARDIAN Ballast Water Treatment System
is a fully automated two stage treatment process
1st Stage - Disc filtration 2nd
Stage - UV disinfectionThe Hyde GUARDIAN uses
no chemicals or active substances!
Simple, Safe and Effective Technology

Sized and configured forany size or type of
vessel

• Hyde GUARDIAN product range covers the
  capacities from 60m3/h to 6000m3/h.
• Standard models are available from 60m3/h to
  1500m3/h
• Multiple line Custom made models are covering the
  range from 1800m3/h to 6000 m3/h

Skid mounted HG300. Skids are available for
models from 60m3/h to 500m3/h (as option)

Modular Design for limited available space

• Modular systems are recommended for retrofit
  projects and for vessels where the space is
  strongly limited
• The Hyde GUARDIAN can fit into whatever space is
  available by separating the modules - filter, UV,
  and electric panels.Very low pressure drop -
  allows
• existing ballast pumps to be used.

8

• Explosion-Proof systems are available for
  installations in hazardous areas.
• The Treatment system is located in the hazardous
  area
• Electrical panels located in the safe zone.

Easy to Fit
Fitting has never been this easy for BWT
units. 3 alternative configurations for
filter battery Parallel, Single Line, Stacked

UV unit can be placed to any Position,
horizontal-vertical and to any place downstream
the filtered water
14
Very Low Operating Cost

• Low Power Consumption
• Low Maintenance
• Extremely Low Consumables
• Less than 0.015 per cubic meter of
  ballast water processed
• Low Total Cost of Ownership!

1st Stage Depth Filtration

• After testing many different filter designs, Hyde
  Marine chose auto-backflush disk filters based on
  overall performance, reliability, and value.
  Benefits
• Compact and simple design
• Fully automatic backflushing
• Corrosion free materials
• Low pressure drop 0.3-0.7 bar
• Very little maintenace needed
• Practically no spare parts needed
• Explosion proof
• Long Service Life

16
Galaxy Filter Design

• Galaxy configuration consist of single Disc
  Filter Elements. Two alternative
• Galaxies 4 for 50m3/h and
• 6 for 80m3/h
• These Galaxy modules are forming the Filter
  Battery, where the size and number of Galaxy
  modules are matching with the ballast flow rate.
• Filtration Process
• Water flows from inlet manifold, through the
  3-way valves to the Galaxy modules. Filtered
  water flows into the outlet manifold and to the
  UV System.

17
Filter Operation

• During Filtration mode, each stack of nylon discs
  is tightly compressed together to create a filter
  element.
• Grooves on top and bottom of the each disc create
  efficient physical barricade for solid particles.
• Ballast water flows from outside to inside of
  each filter element.
• When differential pressure grows up to 0.7 bar
  automatic back-flushing cycle begins.

18
Filter Operation

• During Backflush mode, the compression of stacked
  discs is released.
• Filtered ballast water flows through jet nozzles
  on the spine from inside to outside of each
  filter element.
• The energetic spray causes discs to spin and
• release the retained solids, which are
  
• flushed out to the drain line.
• One complete Galaxy dome with multiple
• filter stacks is flushed in 10 to 20 seconds
• and differential pressure over the filter
• returns to designed 0.3 bar.

Galaxy Filter Design

• Automatic Backflush Process
• Backflush begins automatically when pressure
  differential reaches 0.7 Bar
• The GUARDIAN booster pump starts automatically
  to provide sufficient pressure for a fast and
  effective backwashing.
• One Galaxy module at a time is Cleaned in 10 to
  20 seconds, flushing trapped solids out the drain
  line and overboard.
• Backflushing proceeds for each Galaxy module
  until the complete and the system returns to
  filtration mode.

21
2nd Stage UV Disinfection

• Medium Pressure UV Treatment.
• The compact design has the smallest footprint of
  any UV system and operates with virtually no
  pressure drop.
• Treatment Chamber design and lamp geometry for
  all models are based on CFD modeling to ensure
  precise fluid flow and optimal UV energy dosage.
• This UV system design is ideal when space is
  critical, flow is high, water quality varies.
  Lamps operate effectively and reliably at
  temperatures ranging from -20 to 80 degrees
  Celsius

  economy and true reliability ? life time of
  UV-lamps is 4000 - 8000 hours!
• Automatic Sleeve Cleaning to Minimize
  Maintenance
• Effective and Automatic teflon wiper mechanism
  cleans the quartz tubes regularly to maintain
  high UV dosage and to prolongs the lifetime of
  the tubes. Cleaning is carried out without
  chemicals.

SIMPLY The Best for the Royal Navy

• In 2006, the Aircraft Carrier Alliance evaluated
  Hyde GUARDIAN against all proposed treatment
  systems. Hyde was selected as the best available
  technology in all the most important categories
• proven reliability
• fully automated for integration
• investment costs
• operational costs
• no chemicals or active substances
• In early 2008 the UK Royal Navy purchased six
  Hyde GUARDIAN HG300 systems for their new CVF
  Aircraft Carrier program.

26
Proven Reliable In Continuous Shipboard Operation

• Hyde GUARDIAN Model HG250 unit on the M/S Coral
  Princess has been in operation during all
  ballasting operations since May 2003 and the
  system has performed perfectly without any
  unplanned maintenance.
• In fact, all IMO Type approval shipboard testing
  and the USCGs STEP approval tests were performed
  aboard this ship in 2008 using the originally
  installed UV lamps and filter stacks.

27
Easy, low Cost Installation

• The Hyde GUARDIAN aboard the M/S Celebrity
  Mercury was installed by the crew in just four
  days during their normal cruise operations.
  According to the crew, It was a piece of cake
• Full Service and Technical Support from Hyde
  Marine
• Installation supervision and commissioning
  service is always available from Hyde Marine and
  our partners worldwide.

28
Approvals

• 29th April 2009
• IMO Type Approval by Lloyds Register on
  behalf of MCA
• 31.Oct. 2008
• USCG STEP Approval
• for M/S Coral Princess using Hyde
• Guardian (single ship approval)
