Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2004071863A1] An anti-fouling and eliminating system against aquatic organisms includes one or more anode and cathode terminals installed at a portion of a marine structure, and at least one pulse generator electrically connected to the anode and cathode terminals. Attachment of the aquatic organisms to the marine structure can be easily performed or the aquatic organisms, planktons, or larvae or spawn of the aquatic organisms present in a ballast tank can be eliminated, without using a chemical method, in an environmentally friendly manner.
