Impacts of Limnoperna fortunei on man-made structures and control strategies: General overview
In China and South America, severe fouling problems caused by Limnoperna fortunei have been reported for a number of industrial facilities, including water and wastewater processing plants, power plants (nuclear, hydroelectric, thermal), refineries, steel mills, fish culture facilities, water transf...
