APPLYING A LOW VOLTAGE ELECTRICAL CURRENT (COMPLETELY SAFE FOR SWIMMERS AND MARINE LIFE) TO A SUBMERGED CONDUCTIVE STRUCTURE CAUSES DISSOLVED MINERAL CRYSTALS IN SEAWATER TO PRECIPITATE AND ADHERE TO THAT STRUCTURE.

The result is a composite of limestone and brucite with mechanical strength similar to concrete. Derived from seawater, this material is similar to the composition of natural coral reefs.
Biorock structures can be built in any size or shape depending only on the physical makeup of the sea bottom, wave and current energies and construction materials. They are well suited for remote, third world sites where exotic building materials, construction equipment and highly skilled labor are non-existent.
