Envirocart
Underwater Hull Cleaning System, 100% Biofouling Capture
The Envirocart System, a world-first in-water hull cleaning system with biofouling removal, capture and containment (meaning no collected marine growth enters the ocean).
The purpose of this is to remove marine growth from the hulls of ships without costly and time consuming dry docking; removing marine growth reduces the fuel consumption of a vessel, helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions worldwide, and eliminates the potential for spreading unwanted/alien “invasive marine species” into Australia’s waters or elsewhere internationally.
