Antifouling coatings are applied to exposed surfaces to prevent biofouling. Antifouling coatings have antibacterial properties and prevent both micro- and macrofouling.
Marine biofouling, defined as the unwanted growth of marine organisms such as bacteria, barnacles, and seaweeds on submerged surfaces, is a worldwide issue for maritime industry, having both economic and environmental consequences.
Bio Dispersants can be utilised to control biofouling in industrial operations. In less regulated situations, organisms are destroyed or repelled by coatings that employ biocides, heat treatments, or energy pulses.
The Global Marine biofouling prevention system market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
DuPont introduces a biofouling avoidance technology. DuPont has introduced its new B-Free pre-treatment technology, which removes biofouling in reverse osmosis (RO) systems while lowering operational expenses.
One of the most prevalent and serious issues in the operation of a RO system is biofouling.
If left unchecked, it creates severe operational issues such as frequent interruptions, membrane deterioration, high chemical and energy consumption, and regular cleaning-in-place (CIP) of the RO.DuPont’s patent-pending B-Free technology is a vessel-based media technology that provides a simple and sustainable solution.
It is based on the ability of B-Free pre-treatment technology to provide an instant and persistent biostatic environment for downstream RO operations without the use of chemicals, and it is resistant to upstream disruptions. The method allows for a 75% reduction in Clean-In-Place (CIP) frequency and might double the lifetime of RO membranes and cartridge filters.
B-Free pre-treatment is a novel breakthrough method that effectively eliminates biofouling while also improving plant dependability significantly.
The DuPontTM B-FreeTM patent-pending solution is the result of a multi-year research and development effort that includes a vessel-based media technology that provides a reliable, easy-to-use, and sustainable solution.DuPont is displaying innovative leadership and dedication to solving customer water concerns with this new patent-pending solution.
