Description
Discover how ballast tanks help ships maintain stability, balance, and proper handling, especially when sailing without cargo. Explore the evolution of ballast, from rocks and gravel to modern seawater pumping systems, and learn how ballast water can spread invasive species across the world's oceans. We'll also look at modern treatment technologies, ballast-free ship designs, and the international regulations working to protect marine ecosystems. ⚓
