Abstract:

AbstractStatic immersion tests are commonly used to evaluate the performance of marine coatings prior to use on ship hulls or for other applications. Although these tests provide valuable data, they do not expose the coatings to the hydrodynamic and fouling conditions that will be present when a ship is underway, thus making it difficult to extrapolate results to ship hull performance. The present study reports data for two commercially available ship hull coatings (one antifouling and one fouling release coating) exposed concurrently to static and dynamic ocean conditions for 4 months.

Abstract:

The best way to stop the introduction of non-indigenous species (NISs) is by preventing their transport. In the case of ship hulls, this may be accomplished by managing entrainment onto the hull. This study was designed to examine the role of hull husbandry, i.e., cleaning and grooming, in fouling community structure and to determine the effect of husbandry on the recolonization of surfaces after a transplant was performed. A series of panels were placed at two locations along the east coast of Florida (Port Canaveral and Sebastian Inlet) that are typified by distinct fouling communities. Pane

ABSTRACTWhen immersed in seawater, substrates are rapidly colonized by both micro- and macroorganisms. This process is responsible for important economic and ecological prejudices, particularly when related to ship hulls or aquaculture nets. Commercial antifouling coatings are supposed to reduce biofouling, i.e., micro- and macrofoulers. In this study, biofilms that primarily settled on seven different coatings (polyvinyl chloride [PVC], a fouling release coating [FRC], and five self-polishing copolymer coatings [SPC], including four commercial ones) were quantitatively studied, after 1 month

Abstract:

The biofouling of marine structures must be controlled if crippling operational and maintenance costs are to be avoided and biological invasions prevented. However, traditional methods of biofouling control typically involve the use of toxic chemicals, which have their own drawbacks, both financial and environmental. For ships, the hull is the largest surface requiring a fouling-control coating; however, there are other so-called ‘niche’ areas (up to 10% of the total wetted area) that typically cannot be, or are not routinely, treated to prevent biofouling accumulation. The use of UV light is

Abstract:

Marine fouling, such as heavy slime, is the result of algae and other invertebrates settling and growing on the surfaces of planning hulls that are immersed in water. This may result in a range of serious and costly economic problems. The amount of resistance that planning hulls encounter when operating in maritime settings is an important aspect that considerably impacts the performance, energy efficiency, and operational expenses associated with these hulls. Because of this, the focus of this investigation will be on high-speed planning craft ships. In recent years, there has been a rise in

Abstract Managing biofouling on ship hulls is essential for reducing CO2 emissions in the shipping industry. Biofouling, characterized by the accumulation of organisms on hulls, escalates surface roughness and hydrodynamic drag, subsequently increasing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. In response, AkzoNobel, Royal Philips, and Damen Shipyards are developing a fouling prevention technology that utilizes Ultra Violet Light Emitting Diodes (UV-LEDs). The use of an array of multiple UV-LED tiles may lead to non-uniformities from gaps between tiles, potentially increasing frictional resistance d

Ecological considerations strongly necessitate the development of environmentally friendly antifouling paints. A promising alternative to biocide containing antifouling paints are fouling-release coatings, which are non-toxic and designed to prevent permanent attachment of marine organisms to the surface, due to their low surface energy. However, these coatings suffer from insufficient mechanical properties, which make them unsuitable for mechanically stressed surfaces e.g., on ship hulls.

Abstract:

Abstract Bacterial EPSs (exopolysaccharides) are believed to play an important role in the environment by promoting survival strategies such as bacterial attachment to surfaces and nutrient trapping, which facilitate processes of biofilm formation and development. These microbial biofilms have been implicated in corrosion of metals, bacterial attachment to prosthetic devices, fouling of heat exchange surfaces, toxicant immobilization, and fouling of ship hulls. In this paper, data on EPS production and the effect of EPS on corrosion of steel produced by Lactobacillus sp. are presented and disc

Abstract:

Non-native ascidians are important members of the fouling community associated with artificial substrata and man-made structures. Being efficient fouling species, they are easily spread by human-mediated transports (e.g., with aquaculture trade and maritime transports). This is exemplified by the ascidian Asterocarpa humilis which displays a wide distribution in the Southern Hemisphere and has been recently reported in the Northern Hemisphere (NW Europe). In continental Chile, its first report dates back from 2000 for the locality of Antofagasta (23°S). Although there was no evidence about the

Abstract:

The swimming larvae of many marine animals identify a location on the seafloor to settle and undergo metamorphosis based on the presence of specific surface-bound bacteria. While bacteria-stimulated metamorphosis underpins processes such as the fouling of ship hulls, animal development in aquaculture, and the recruitment of new animals to coral reef ecosystems, little is known about the mechanisms governing this microbe-animal interaction. Here we review what is known and what we hope to learn about how bacteria and the factors they produce stimulate animal metamorphosis. With a few emerging m

Abstract:

Colonization of ship hulls by living organisms, which occurs on molecular, microbial and macro organism levels, decreases ship performance, increases costs and is a biological problem with global consequences. Managing fouling is necessary for efficient economics and to prevent environmental damage due to introduction of invasive species. Colonization is managed by broad spectrum long-lived toxins which kill colonizers. Broad spectrum long-lived toxins build up and impact environments. Toxins damage ecosystems and directly or indirectly kill food species. Ideally, novel antifouling approaches

Abstract:

Biofouling on underwater engineered structures, especially on ship hulls, results in increased operational and maintenance costs. The traditional methods of protecting marine structures have been the use of toxic antifoulants, such as lead, mercury and tributyltin compounds (TBT). Such heavy metals have proven to be effective in deed, but severe shellfish deformities and the bioaccumulation of heavy metals in ducks, seals and fish lead to the global ban of toxic antifoulants. Therefore, our antifouling strategy is to develop minimally adhesive, mechanically stable and nontoxic fouling release

Abstract:

Antifouling coatings are integral to the maritime economy. The efficacy of the applied painting system is closely correlated with susceptibility to fouling and the adhesion strength of contaminants. A fouled hull might result in an elevated fuel consumption and journey expenses. Biofouling on ship hulls also has detrimental environmental consequences due to the release of biocides during maritime travel. Therefore, it is imperative to develop eco-friendly antifouling paints that inhibit the robust adhesion of marine organisms. This study aimed to assess a biocide-free antifouling coating formu
