Marine biofouling poses significant environmental and economic challenges to global maritime industries. Conventional antifouling coatings reliant on biocide-release mechanism are effective but raise serious ecological concerns, prompting the need for sustainable alternatives. Here, we introduce a synergistic photobiocatalysis strategy by integrating a BiOI photocatalyst with haloperoxidase-mimetic CeO nanozyme into an in situ-assembled heterojunction . This photobiocatalytic system mutually reinforces Z-scheme photocatalysis and haloperoxidase-mimetic biocatalysis, enabling continuous in situ generation of antifouling ROS and hypobromous acid directly in seawater. The synergistic action of ROS and HOBr provides broad-spectrum antimicrobial and anti-algal efficiencies without being toxic to non-target marine biota. Remarkably, in real-world marine trials spanning six months, the Bi Ce coating demonstrates superior and long-lasting antifouling performance, outperforming a leading commercial antifouling paint. This work provides a viable path toward eco-compatible antifouling technologies and underscores the potential of green catalytic materials to replace conventional pollution-intensive agents in marine industries.收起
