An electrical ballast is a device placed in series with a load to limit the amount of current in an electrical circuit.. A familiar and widely used example is the inductive ballast used in fluorescent lamps to limit the current through the tube, which would otherwise rise to a destructive level due to the negative differential resistance of the tube's voltage-current characteristic.

Ballast water is one of the major pathways for the introduction of nonindigenous marine species. Ballast water is fresh or saltwater held in the ballast tanks and cargo holds of ships. It is used to provide stability and maneuverability during a voyage when ships are not carrying cargo, not carrying heavy enough cargo, or when more stability is required due to rough seas.

Basalt was used as stadium seating and street pavers throughout the Roman Empire. Today, basalt is commonly used as crushed aggregate in construction projects. Crushed basalt is used for road base, concrete aggregate, asphalt pavement aggregate, railroad ballast, filter stone in drain fields. But, basalt is also cut into dimension stone.

Run the basalt for seven days in coarse as described above. Then tumble seven days in medium, seven days in fine, and seven days in polish. We recommend at least 20% media if your basalt is in 1-inch pieces or smaller, and 40% media if your rocks are 1 to 2 1/2 inches in size.

Track ballast (usually crushed stone), as it is known, is another important part of railroad infrastructure. Although it may just look like plain ole gravel this stone plays a vital role in acting as a support base for the railroad ties and rails as well as allowing for proper drainage of water away from the rails (which is why the stone is always sloped downward and away from track).

Comparative study between limestone and basalt ballasts shows that basalt is more suitable as ballast than limestone. Indeed, basalt has good density; it is insensitive to water and has the best characteristics of hardness. From a compositional point of view, the presence of silica minerals gives it a higher silica percentage than limestone.
