Abstract:
      This article revolved around biocorrosion and biofouling in seawater and their protection, and proposed suggestions based on the review and analysis of relative reports in China and other countries. Firstly, the distribution and characteristics of fouling organisms were analyzed, and it was found that the composition and structure of organism communities were dependent on several factors, including sea area, season, depth, and type of engineering structures, demonstrating the complexity of biocorrosion and biofouling in seawater. Secondly, analysis was conducted on the impact of biofouling on marine corrosion rate, and adhesive organisms were believed to be significant in the increase of corrosion rate of metal materials. Thirdly, analysis of the current status, advantages, and disadvantages of protection technologies against biocorrosion and biofouling was carried out, and the combination of diverse protection technologies was exhibited. Finally, proposals were given on the research work of biocorrosion and biofouling in seawater, which included the establishment of databases on biocorrosion and biofouling in different sea areas, much more efforts on the research and development of green and biological protection technologies, more investment in the fundamental research, and setting up of evaluation standards and regulations.
