Abstract
Biofouling is one of major pollutants in circulating cooling water system, one important reason for formation of biofouling is the accumulation of extracellular polymeric substances, they are high polymers that are secreted to vitro by microorganisms, mainly bacteria. Bacteria formed deposits that can secrete mucus are the mainly bacteria causing dirt. This essay is to illustrate causes of biofouling formation, component of extracellular polymeric substances of which extracellular polysaccharide, extracellular protein extraction and identification methods and provide a theoretical basis for researching the control of extracellular polymers and developing green efficient detergent methods.
