Biofouling on Coated Carbon Steel in Cooling Water Cycles Using Brackish Seawater

Biofouling on Coated Carbon Steel in Cooling Water Cycles Using Brackish Seawater

Water cooling utilizing natural waters is typically used for cooling large industrial facilities such as power plants. The cooling water cycles are susceptible to biofouling and scaling, which may reduce heat transfer capacity and enhance corrosion. The performance of two fouling-release coatings co...
