Holdfast adhesion in the kelp Alaria marginata: Cell wall polysaccharides and phenolics
Abstract Adhesion is a critical process in the survival of seaweeds, especially in wave‐swept environments. Kelp (Laminariales) sporophytes secrete adhesives from specialized rhizoid cells to anchor themselves to the substrate and withstand immense forces applied by waves.

Abstract Open‐water low‐trophic aquaculture (LTA) is a sustainable method for producing ocean‐based food and providing ecosystem services. An effective system design is critical for mitigating risks posed by deep ocean forces. Developing submersible cultivation technology requires quantitative risk analysis and modeling to address offshore challenges ...

Mikrobielle Werkstoffzerstörung – Biofilm und Biofouling: Biofouling
Materials and Corrosion, 1994AbstractDie unerwünschte Ablagerung von Mikroorganismen und die Bildung von Biofilmen wird als Biofouling bezeichnet. In Wassersystemen führen Biofilme zur Kontamination der Wasserphase und zu verstärkter Wiederverkeimung. Außerdem werden Oberflächen abgedeckt. Bei Membranprozessen führt dies zu einem erhöhten Permeationswiderstand.

[Extract] All pearl culture is impacted by biofouling which is a key operational issue and economic cost for the vast majority of pearl production. Pearl oysters are cultured by a variety of methods depending on the species and the location of the farm.

Biofouling ecology as a means to better understand membrane biofouling
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2014Despite more than a decade of worldwide research on membrane fouling in membrane bioreactors, many questions remain to be answered. Biofouling, which is referred to as the unwanted deposition and growth of biofilms, remains the main problem. Due to its complexity, most of the existing anti-biofouling strategies are not completely successful. To unravel

Heat exchangers are used to transfer heat from a hot fluid to a cold fluid. In general, the two fluids flow through appropriate channels (tubes, spaces between parallel plates or between tubes) within the equipment. Solid surfaces made of metal or, less often, of some polymer (teflon, e.g.) separate the fluids.

Bacterial biofilms and biofouling
Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 1994Advances in the development and application of investigative tools, such as scanning confocal laser microscopy and genetic techniques, are leading to new insights concerning the composition, structure, and function of bacterial biofilms. Molecular biology has also demonstrated that bacteria are able to 'sense' surface environments, altering their ...

Techniques for the Quantification of Biofouling.
2010For this chapter, we have collated from the authors in this book approaches and techniques for the quantification and qualification of biofouling and have presented most of it in referenced tabular form to permit easy access to the information (Table 22.1). There are also two more thorough sections neither of which has been published before: one on the

CORROSION 1984, 1984
Abstract The development of biofilms associated with corrosion is the net result of several physical, chemical, and biological processes. These interrelated processes are reviewed and discussed in the context of biofouling control. Biofouling process simulation equipment are described and experimental results concerning biocontrol ...
