Standards
• IMO MEPC 107(49) “Revised Guidelines and
Specifications for Pollution Prevention
Equipment for Machinery Space Bilges of
Ships”
• IMO MEPC.1 Circ 642 “2008 Revised
Guidelines for Systems For Handling Oily
Wastes in Machinery Spaces”

MEPC 107(49) Attributes
Tested
• Oil Output Less Than 15 PPM Using 3 Test Fluids
– Determined by Laboratory Test of Output
• Unit Capacity
– Based On Flow Rate During Test, Using Specified Test
Fluids, Concentrations And Test Durations
• Continuous And Automatic Operation
– Determined By Continuous Operation Without Human
Intervention During Test
• Operation In Shipboard Environmental Conditions
– Determined By Laboratory Testing Including Vibration
Temperature Humidity And Inclined Operation

MEPC 107(49) Testing
•
•
Test Fluids/Test Minimum Duration
• Test Fluid A - marine residual fuel/ 3.75 Hours
• Test Fluid B - marine distillate fuel/ 1 Hour
• Test Fluid C - an emulsion/ 2.5 Hours
Fluid Type “C” was added to certification test requirements. This fluid
contains at least 3,000 ppm of emulsified oil and 100 PPM of Solids

Future Testing
Recommendations
– Separator Tested Together With Monitor
– Fluid Temperature Be More Precisely
Specified And Emulsion Be More Stable
And Consistent Between Tests
– Continuous Running Be Better
Monitored
– Configuration Control of Production

IMO MEPC.1 Circ 642
• 2008 Revised Guidelines for Systems For
Handling Oily Wastes in Machinery
Spaces
– Minimize Oily Bilge Water
• Separate Clean Drains
• Route Oily Drains Direct to Oily Residue (Sludge)
Tanks
– Pre-treatment with Bilge Primary Tanks
• Attempts To Minimize The Variation In Bilge

• Suggested Revisions
– Standardize Terminology To Conform With IMO
– Expand Bilge Management Section To Create A
Bilge System Design Section
– Requirements Should Be Technology Neutral
– Be Less Prescriptive In Equipment Design
Features
– Minimize The References To Other Documents
– Notional System Diagram Be Updated to take
into account MEPC 107(49) equipment and
