Small vessel marine sanitation device technology review
Transport Canada (TC) has contracted the National Research Council of Canada (NRC) to assess and develop marine sanitation device (MSD) technologies for use onboard small vessels (under 400 gross tonnes with a particular focus on fishing vessels of 15-150 gross tonnes). Accordingly, NRC has developed a research protocol to address this issue. The project will ultimately involve laboratory-scale experiments and full-scale field trials; however, the portion of the study described in this document is a desktop review of existing MSD manufacturers and products. The purpose of this review is to update the existing inventory commissioned by TC in 2014 and determine which MSD units are best suited for use onboard small vessels. Based on the results of the technology review, two or three units will be selected for purchase and will be evaluated in a laboratory setting. While this component of the study is focused on ship-based solutions, future phases may be expanded to include an assessment of shore-based technologies. The desktop review process and its results are outlined in the current technical report. ; Peer reviewed: No ; NRC publication: Yes
