The MECS contains the simulation module system and the treatment system of sea water . The main equipment of the simulation cabin system is six large-scale experimental cabins embedded in the building, as well as the corresponding control system, detection system, equipment monitoring and information network system, and safety monitoring system. The treatment system of sea water includes sea water extraction station, seawater Pretreatment station, water pressure pump station, waste water treatment station. MECS provides an important platform for the clean water test of marine equipment and sensors and the research and development of marine ecological engineering.

MECS is a major scientific project of Marine science, and it is an important measure to focus on the frontier of marine science and technology, seize the commanding height of the academic, and create the discipline of the subject. MECS is of great significance to the development of Marine science and the development of Marine industry in our country.
