Marine and Industrial Biofouling

2009
Biofouling is a costly problem, and it is encountered in a wide spectrum of technical systems, ranging from the shipping industry, power industry, water purification, automobile industry, paint and pharmaceuticals, to the microelectronics and food industries. Micro- and macroorganisms attach to surfaces and accumulate there, forming biofilms that cause

A Biochemical Mechanism for Marine Biofouling

OCEANS 81, 1981
Microbial communities form rapidly on all surfaces exposed to seawater. Microbial fouling is related to a number of problems in marine technology. Corrosion of metal structures in the ocean is affected by microbial films. In addition, microbial fouling induces the settlement of macrofouling organisms.
