Nanofiltration membranes (NF) have been widely used in the field of water treatment because of their advantages of high separation precision, easy operation, and no phase change. Conventional NF membranes, ensnared by the ?trade-off? effect, grapple with...

Membrane fouling is a key factor limiting the application of a membrane bioreactor (MBR), and membrane-surface modification holds the potential to control membrane fouling and solves this problem. In the research, novel nanocomposite membranes were desig...

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, w...

Biofouling is a universal problem in the marine environment. Static structures and niche areas on ships, such as propellers, are not protected sufficiently by antifouling coatings. Encapsulation has previously been used as a fouling mitigation technique ...

The limited antifouling capability of Ti-based components could jeopardize their applications in petroleum engineering. In this work, a Cu-enriched TiO2 coating has been fabricated using an ultrasound-auxiliary micro-arc oxidation (UMAO) method. The Cu e...

Diuron, an additive biocide in antifouling paints, is widely employed to curtail the attachment of organisms on submerged surfaces in aquatic structures. Despite the detection of diuron in aquatic ecosystems, information regarding its acute and chronic i...

Biofouling control on human-made structures and seagoing technologies that minimize environmental impacts is a major focus of research in marine industries. However, the most widely used antifouling (AF) method is still copper-based coatings. Some ?eco-f...

Fouling organisms reduce a ship?s fuel efficiency and disturb the ecosystem. Therefore, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and many nations have enacted laws that mandate periodic hull cleaning for removing fouling organisms. However, cleaning...
