Watch the seminar on the latest antifouling reserach
On November 19, Lighthouse and Chalmers hosted the seminar Latest Antifouling Research: Focus on Sustainable Shipping at Lindholmen in Gothenburg. Here, you can watch it afterwards and learn more about the decision support tool for hull maintenance, HullMASTER. A range of other related topics within antifouling research is also covered, including innovative antifouling coatings, the impact of biofouling on vessel performance, and socio-environmental perspectives.
The seminar is led by the Antifouling Research Group at the Department of Mechanics and Maritime Sciences, Chalmers University of Technology.
