Embodiment Construction

[0068] figure 1 Illustrated is a vessel 20 having an onboard water system 22 including a biocide generation system 24 in accordance with the principles of the present disclosure. Vessel 20 is shown supported on a body of water 26 . Onboard water system 22 includes an inlet 28 , an outlet 30 , and a water flow path 32 that extends from inlet 28 through vessel 20 to outlet 30 . Inlet 28 is configured to draw water from body of water 26 into water flow path 32 . The inlet 28 is located below the water line 34 of the vessel 20 and is preferably located at the bottom of the hull of the vessel 20 . The inlet 28 may be opened and closed by a valve 36 (eg, a stopcock). Outlet 30 is configured to discharge water that has passed through water flow path 32 back into body of water 26 . Preferably, the outlet 30 is located above the water line 34 . The onboard water system 22 may include a number of components positioned along the water flow path 32 . The water flow path 32 may inclu...

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a biocide generating system for inhibiting bio-fouling within a water system of a watercraft. The water system is configured to draw water from a body of water on which the watercraft is supported. The biocide generating system includes an electrode arrangement adapted to be incorporated as part of an electrolytic cell through which the water of the water system flows; and a control system that interfaces with the electrode arrangement. The control system includes an electrical power circuit for establishing a flow of electrical current between first and second electrodes of the electrode arrangement to generate a biocide in the water within the electrolytic cell, the control system includes a switching arrangement operable in a first switch configurationin which the first electrode is an anode and the second electrode is a cathode, the switching arrangement is also operable in a second switch configuration in which the first electrode is a cathode and the second electrode is an anode, and an electrode arrangement is adapted to be incorporated as part of an electrolytic cell through which the water of the water system flows.

Description

[0001] This application was filed as a PCT International Patent Application on October 3, 2018 and claims U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 568,629 filed on October 5, 2017, U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 568,629 filed on September 24, 2018 .62 / 735,615, and the priority of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 737,555, filed September 27, 2018, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0002] The present disclosure generally relates to a biocide generating system for reducing or eliminating biofouling within an aqueous system. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to an anti-biofouling system for treating water of an onboard water system of a vessel. Background technique [0003] Vessels, particularly marine vessels, typically include onboard water systems that use water (eg, seawater) drawn from a body of water on which the vessel is buoyantly supported. A common type of onboard water system i...
