FOULING PROTECTION FOR CONSTRUCTIONS IN WATER

摘要

By using natural marine substances which are overgrowth preventing a very efficient protection can be obtained without use of environmental toxines. Examples of such natural substances are such being based on seaweed, in which there is a substance that prevents overgrowth, or such based on bacteria or other microorganisms which either themselves prevent, absorb or gormandize on harmful plants or animals or contain a substance that prevents overgrowth. These substances are bound to the marine construction either by this being made of a fibre material or by it being provided with a surface layer of a fibre material.
