The CLEANSHIP project seeks to develop a novel ultrasonic technology to prevent biofouling on ship hulls, which increases fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. By using ultrasonic waves, the project aims to reduce fouling without harmful biocides, significantly lowering operational costs and environmental impact.
Biofouling is the adhesion of biological materials to hard surfaces, such as ship hulls, in a marine environment and it can commence within seconds of the immersion of a ship’s hull in the sea.
After 6 months without protection against marine fouling deposits, biofouling growth increases the drag on a hull so much as to cause a ship to use up to 40% more fuel and correspondingly to produce 40% more CO2 emissions.
The marine industry spends $6 billion (USD) worldwide in the prevention or removal…
