Prevention and detection of fouling on ship hulls (CLEANSHIP)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2012, Date de fin: 31 août 2014,
"Biofouling is the adhesion of biological materials to hard surfaces, such as ship hulls, in a marine environment and it can commence within seconds of the immersion of a ship’s hull in the sea. After 6 months without protection against marine fouling deposits, biofouling growth increases the drag on a hull so much as to cause a ship to use up to 40% more fuel and correspondingly to produce 40% m ...
