Abstract: Ship ballast water affects various marine species in the port or near the coast. When ships come in and/or out of the port, the discharged ballast water contaminates the seawater and destroys the marine ecology system. Therefore, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) adopted the Convention on Ballast Water Management in February 2004 and insists that all ships be equipped with a ballast water treatment system beginning in 2010. In this paper, the disinfection characteristics of Tetraselmis sp. were analyzed using a deep ultraviolet light emitting diode (UV LED) as a basic study for the development of a ballast water treatment system. UV LED modules with peak wavelengths at 255, 265, and 280 [nm] were fabricated, and each module was exposed to the same UV dose of 100-400 [mJ/cm2]. The experiment results showed that the highest disinfection wavelength on the Tetraselmis sp. appeared at 265 [nm] with a constant UV dose.
