Motivation
Biofouling is a prevanlent issue within our current society where organisms get attached to the hulls of ships and create drag, significantly increase fuel consumption rates and costs as well as annual CO2 emissions and rapid biodiversity reduction. Being in the sustainability devision of the Innovent competition we decided to tackle this issue!
