Electric anti-corrosion system for ships MGPS

Bio-fouling commonly occurs in seawater circulation system when barnacles, mussels and other lower forms of marine life as larvae enter pipework, settle on internal surface of pipes where they rapidly grow and multiply if favorable environmental condition exists. Blockages in seawater pipework caused by bio-fouling are expensive and time consuming to repair,which significantly jeopardize the operational capability and even safety of the vessels. The Marine Growth Prevention System (MGPS) accomplishes dual tasks - pipework anti-fouling and corrosion suppression, by taking advantages of active metal cations (or hypochlorite) generated based on electrolytic principle and distributing the electrolyte into pipework using flowing seawater as media. The system can dramatically enhance operational efficiency and equipment performance of seawater systems, i.e. water pumps, heat exchangers, condensers, etc. The MGPS system has been widely applied in all kinds of ships, marine engineering and seawater pipework system.
