“…Marine fouling organisms, also known as marine attached organisms, are animals, plants, and microorganisms that inhabit, attach, and grow on the bottom of ships, docks, buoys, and various artificial facilities. , Marine ecosystems are one of the main places where biological fouling occurs. According to statistics, there are more than 4000 types of marine organisms that can cause biological fouling, and the most common are algae, hydra, barnacles, oysters, and some microorganisms. , Their attachment can cause great harm to ships and marine facilities, such as an increase in the hull weight and navigation friction, an increase in power and fuel consumption, the blockage of marine transmission pipelines, and the failure of marine instruments, all of which can seriously hinder the development of the marine economy. − At present, marine engineering facilities related to national welfare, livelihoods, and defense security require substantial investments. Annual losses caused by biological fouling are difficult to estimate, and protecting the long-term safe operation of these facilities is of great economic and social significance. − With the accelerated pace of marine development and utilization, scientifically and efficiently controlling marine biological fouling has become a focus of international ecology, environmental science, materials science, and other multidisciplinary fields.…”
