Sewage treatment plants for ships

Sewage treatment plants (STPs) from Wärtsilä are the most cost-effective and safe answer for every ship or offshore platform to dispose of wastewater at sea. No tempering with the quality of our oceans.

Wärtsilä sewage treatment units - also known as 'Wartsila Hamworthy Super Trident' - are certified to meet IMO MEPC 227(64) guidelines. These have been in place for all new-build ships from 1 January 2016 onward.

Each Super Trident sewage treatment unit has been optimised to process all onboard black and grey wastewater streams. The plants are compatible with both conventional gravity and vacuum fed collection systems. On top of that, each STP is fully automatic, allowing for unattended operation. This greatly reduces maintenance requirements and lower long-term operating costs.

Finally, Wärtsilä sewage treatment plants for ships are compact and modular in design, suitable for between-deck installations and adaptable to customer new-build specifications.
