The invention belongs to the technical field of
fouling prevention and control, and particularly relates to a low-power-consumption
electrolysis anti-
fouling device for marine unmanned equipment and an application method of the low-power-consumption
electrolysis anti-
fouling device. The main body structure of the device comprises a
copper composite electrode, a
chlorine-producing
anode arranged on the periphery of the
copper composite electrode and a
titanium cathode arranged in the center of the
chlorine-producing
anode; the application method comprises the following steps: determining the size of a fouling protection space and a maintenance and replacement period, calculating the size of the
copper composite electrode and the boundary dimension of the device, arranging the positions of one or more sets of devices according to requirements, connecting the device with the marine unmanned equipment, and carrying out secondary
pollution protection on the marine unmanned equipment.
Copper ions generated through
electrolysis serve as a main antifouling agent,
chlorine prepared through
seawater electrolysis serves as an auxiliary antifouling agent, the copper ions and
hypochlorite are generated through intermittent electrolysis, marine organisms are prevented and treated, through
electrode parameter matching, the electrolysis current is effectively reduced, the service life of a copper composite
electrode is prolonged, electrolysis
power consumption is reduced, and the stable antifouling effect with low
power consumption is guaranteed.
