In 2004, IMO (International Maritime Organization) enacted the BWM Convention to prevent the destruction of the marine environment by harmful microorganisms in ballast water, and Techcross set to work on the development of BWMS.

The world's first BWMS Techcross developed the BWMS by grafting their own existing electrolysis technology to ballast water treatment. The company obtained basic approval in 2006 for the first time in the world and final approval in 2008 for the first time in South Korea and third time in the world.
