수중제거과정 시 선박부착생물의 확산감소를 위한 관리과정의 개발

Abstract

In relation to the 2011 IMO Guideline for the control and management of ships biofouling to minimize the transfer of invasive aquatic species, we have embarked a research project to develop robust methods for assessment of the risk arising from the discharge of wastes during in-water hull cleaning activities, to draft regulatory guidelines on the surface of ship hull for the upcoming 5 years. In order to establish these methods the following factors need to be considered: (1) analysis of active substances such as biocides discharged from antifouling coating systems, (2) identification and assessment of risk posed by biofouling debris from ships surfaces, (3) risk assessment through toxicity testing of the coastal and international test organisms to target toxic materials, (4) development of integrated management processes for in-water hull cleaning activities. The anticipated results of this project will contribute to the IMO-led GEF-UNDP-IMO GloFouling Partnerships Project starting this year, and establish a scientific basis for managing changes in the global market related to in-water cleaning techniques.g from the discharge of wastes during in-water hull cleaning activities, to draft regulatory guidelines on the surface of ship hull for the upcoming 5 years.
