Biofouling and Entrainment & impingement found to be the perpetual problems in desalination & drinking water intake system. A simple solution to this massive biofouling problem is to treat the feed water to remove larval forms of all biofouling. We suggested an eco-friendly, viable technology called subsurface intake \ Beach well system. A simple modification in the feed water of the sea/freshwater intake system is foolproof to avoid this problem soon. Just bore the seafloor/river bottom and extract the water will provide 100% of this biofouling free feed water. It has been scientifically proven through our publications and industrial-scale seawater reverse osmosis SWR plants. Adopting this technology enables the reduction of climate change impacts like carbon dioxide sequestration and global warming as these seawater/freshwaters to have microscopic planktonic forms that used to be killed by chlorination or other mechanical/chemical treatment in the process of purification. These planktonic forms involved photosynthesis produce oxygens and utilize carbon dioxide to prepare their food, and most of the fishery contributors larval forms also got saved by adopting this technology. This technology also enabled to solve the perpetual problem of straining invasive aliens from ballast water for the shipping industry.
