Sure thing. First, make sure the inhibitor’s chemistry can survive the pressure, temperature, and salinity of the deep. Use a slow‑release polymer matrix that coats the hull and only kicks in when a biofilm starts to form. Second, keep the system mechanically simple – a few pumps, a storage tank, and a sensor that tells you when the coating’s getting used up. Don’t over‑engineer it; add redundancy only where it matters. And remember, a lot of what works in a lab will get killed by salt and pressure – test in a pressure chamber first. If you can get that to hold up, you’ll have a boat that cleans itself and doesn’t need a crew to do the grunt work.
