A control unit, a circulation system, and a method for handling ballast water of one or more ballast tanks. The circulation system includes a control unit; a pipe structure having a first system inlet and a first system outlet; and a pump unit for pumping ballast water between the first system inlet and the first system outlet, the pump unit being connected to the control unit. The control unit is configured to: obtain a volume parameter indicative of pumped volume; determine if a pump criterion is fulfilled, the pump criterion being based on the volume parameter; and operate the pump unit based on whether the pump criterion is fulfilled or not.
