Advanced Nontoxic Anti-Fouling Coatings Research, Test Site Facility

Abstract

The objectives of this proposal are to maintain an ocean seawater immersion test site at Port Canaveral and an estuarine test site at Crane Creek in the Indian River Lagoon, Florida to provide: static immersion of coatings and biofouling prevention methods-#dynamic immersion of materials and coatings-#the application of synergistic methods (including grooming, cleaning, UV light and electro chlorination) in conjunction with coatings to manage biofouling-#research related to the scientific understanding of the biofouling and biofouling control processes.--Advanced Non-Toxic Antifouling Coatings Research Test Site Facility - Abstract - Approved for Public Release -
