Giles Candy

Business Development Director, Scienco/FAST

Since 2014, working with innovative marine solutions, particularly with the inTank Ballast Water Treatment System from Envirocleanse. In the short time since USCG Type Approval Giles has helped Tank establish itself as a go to alternative second generation BWTS, working with Representatives, Owners and Managers worldwide. Previously, Giles spent almost a decade working at the forefront of the ballast water treatment industry with N.E.I. Treatment Systems. In 2006 he completed some of the last shipboard testing of the Venturi Oxygen Stripping (VOS) ballast water treatment system (BWTS), then assembled the comprehensive application for Type Approval. VOS was the first BWTS in the world to submit a successful application for Type Approval under the Guidelines of the IMO Ballast Convention. Other Type Approvals followed as well as USCG STEP acceptance and USCG AMS status. Giles managed several VOS projects including hands on installation before becoming Director of Global Sales at N.E.I. Before ballast treatment Giles managed industrial waste water treatment and vapor control projects. Mobilizing modular treatment trains to facilities where hazardous waste streams were treated for on-site discharge under site permits with state and local enforcement review. Projects were completed throughout the U.S. always requiring rigorous operational and compliance management to treat and discharge or emit within multiple permit requirements. In the years immediately after graduating from Lancaster University (U.K.), with a Bachelor of Science Honors Degree in Environmental Sciences, Giles worked for environmental consultancies completing; urban atmospheric monitoring, dispersion modeling and Health Risk Assessments.
