Texto completoThe sea plays a vital role in regulating climate and in maintaining ecological balance. The oceans and the sea constitute a source of wealth, an immense reservoir of food resources and of employment for many people. The Mediterranean Sea is a sensitive ecosystem, subject to strong pressures derived from human activities, such as fishing, oil and gas exploration, dumping of waste and other matter in the sea, maritime transport, transfer of aquatic invasive species via ballast water and littoral tourism. France, severely affected by the sinking of the Amoco Cadiz, the Erika and the Prestige, took numerous initiatives not only at an international but also at a regional level. The complexity of the marine pollution problem, due to the diversity of polluting factors and to their diffuse sources, has favored a regional approach. This approach has resulted in the adoption, at a national, regional and international level, of a network of policies, legislative texts, programs and action plans in the field of marine environment protection. It constitutes a stifling body of rules, comprising preventive and repressive measures. The institutional and legal complexity of marine protection hinders, however, the effective protection of the marine environment. ln this context, the international community encourages the implementation of an ecosystem approach to oceans. At European level, the adoption of the Framework Directive «Strategy for the Marine Environment» favours a consistency between different EU policies as well as an integration of environmental considerations into ail policies related to the sea. Furthermore, the effectiveness of European legislation in the field of the fight again marine pollution, has been reinforced by the adoption of a common framework of liability with regard to the prevention and remedy of environment damage

Texto completoWe studied the marine pollution of the sediments and coastal waters of the Cape Verde peninsula and the Petite Côte. The results show that the perception of the population is not always in line with scientific observations. The population reports a mainly moderate level of pollution, which has worsened over the last ten years. The majority of the sites studied do not comply with the microbiological quality of bathing water from a microbiological point of view. The quantities of microplastics at some sites are high. Macroplastics at sea are not significantly present at all the sites sampled. For TMEs only chromium and nickel are above the probable effect concentration (PEC) on marine organisms for the fraction ≤ 100 μm. The first trophic levels of the marine food chain do not seem to be affected by sediment toxicity, whereas the middle and upper levels are more affected. The majority (81%) of the sites studied revealed a level of ecotoxicity greater than 20%, via the Magallana gigas embryotoxicity test, which is known to be more sensitive than other bioassays. Consequently, the assessment of the toxicity of marine sediments shows that the majority of the selected sites appear to be in a poor ecotoxicological state. The inter-site variability of the results is due to the characteristics of the sites

Texto completoSome 125 samples were then analyzed for the presence of Cadmium and Mercury by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Cadmium content, holding a mean 0.77 $ mu$g/L, was generally low for most areas with only a few elevated readings in Tripoli (1.89 $ mu$g/L), Checca (1.83 $ mu$g/L), Kaslik (0.79 $ mu$g/L), Beirut (1.19 $ mu$g/L) and Ramlet Al-Bayda (1.77 $ mu$g/L). Mercury content, holding a mean value of 0.06 mg/Kg (wet weight), was below the accepted tolerance limit of 0.5 mg/Kg for all sampling sites.
Some 128 samples were then analyzed for fecal coliforms (Escherichia coli and Streptococcus feacalis). Approximately, 50% of the sampling stations showed satisfactory results (less than 100 colonies/100 ml). High counts of fecal coliforms, over 500 colonies/100 ml, collected at Dora, Ramlet Al-Bayda and Antelias, reveal poor sea water quality and a public health hazards to swimmers and fishermen.
Some 36 samples were collected and analyzed for dissolved oxygen (DO), pH, salinity and temperature. For all sites sampled, DO averaged 4.03 mg/L, pH averaged 7.97, salinity averaged 38.77 ppt and temperature averaged 27.9$ sp circ$C.
The degree of pollution was found to be related to population density, industrial and human activity, continental runoffs and hydrological and meteorological conditions.

Texto completoLa ricerca condotta nel presente lavoro di tesi è stata condotta nell’ambito del progetto ECOMOS. Il progetto consiste in ricerca di base e ricerca applicata e lo scopo del lavoro era sviluppate tecnologie innovative per l’abbattimento degli inquinanti gassosi prodotti da motori marini. In tal senso il lavoro è stato condotto su due filoni principali: - Uno riguardante la ricerca di base, in cui sono stati verificati gli effetti del supporto su catalizzatori a base di argento operanti in condizioni di miscela magra utilizzando un idroreattore catalitico. - Uno riguardante la ricerca applicata, che ha richiesto l’analisi e razionalizzazione dello stato dell’arte circa l’abbattimento delle emissioni gassose inquinanti nel settore marino allo scopo di proporre un modello di sistema integrato per l’abbattimento; la verifica della fattibilità della proposta utilizzando catalizzatori modello a base di platino; lo studio del disegno e la costruzione di un impianto micro pilota su scala di laboratorio per l’abbattimento delle emissioni di un motore marino facente uso di catalizzatori a base di Pt/Al2O3 ed infine la realizzazione di un impianto pilota con la collaborazione di Cetena. I principali risultati ottenuti possono essere riassunti in: - Ricerca di base: o Il supporto risulta avere un forte effetto sull’attività catalitica o L’attività catalitica può essere modificata scegliendo l’opportuno supporto o La resistenza all’avvelenamento provocato dalla presenza di zolfo nei gas può essere aumentata tramite l’introduzione di zirconia nel supporti, ma ulteriori test sono necessari per razionalizzare completamente quanto osservato - Ricerca applicata: o Il catalizzatore a base di platino supportato su allumina, Pt/Al2O3, ha dimostrato di essere stabile ed attivo anche in presenza di elevate concentrazioni di SO2 nella fase gassosa suggerendo la possibilità di utilizzo nel settore marino. o È stato identificato un inaspettato fenomeno di condensazione, per la cui completa caratterizzazione sono richiesti ulteriori test. o Acqua ed anidride carbonica hanno effetti limitati sull’ossidazione dell’ossido di azoto mentre sopprimono la reazione di condensazione. o La presenza di idrocarburi sopprime l’ossidazione di NO o I test sull’impianto pilota di laboratorio hanno dimostrato che il catalizzatore scelto è attivo nell’ossidazione di NO, ma si conferma la necessità di ossidare prima tutti gli HC. o È stata confermata la necessità di ossidare No ad NO2 qualora si vogliano abbattere le emissioni di ossidi di azoto tramite assorbimento in acqua di mare mentre si è confermata l’efficacia per l’abbattimento di SO2. o L’impianto di laboratorio ha consentito il dimensionamento del catalizzatore per l’impianto pilota. o I problemi riscontrati nell’impianto di laboratorio hanno suggerito modifiche che sono state applicate all’impianto pilota.
The research conducted in the present thesis was carried out within the framework of the ECOMOS project. The project consists of basic and applied research and overall scope of the work was to develop novel marine pollution abatement technologies. Accordingly, the work was carried out along two main directions: - fundamental research, in which the effect of the support on lean deNOx activity of Ag-based catalyst were investigated using a catalytic microreactor; - and applied research, which involved a recognition and rationalization of the state of the art in marine pollution abatement to purpose a model of integrated system; the verification of the feasibility of the purpose, using a model Pt catalyst; the study of the design, of the layout and the construction and testing of a laboratory-scale plant for the abatement of emissions from marine engines using Pt / Al2O3 catalysts and the dimensioning of a pilot plant in collaboration with Cetena. The main results found on the two directions are summarized in the following lists: - Basic studies: HC SCR on Ag based catalyst: The support effect is clearly evidenced as a main contributor to catalytic activity; The activity can be tuned by using appropriate supports; The resistance to sulphur poisoning can be improved by the introduction of zirconia in the support, but further test are needed to fully address this observation; - Fundamental studies: The Pt/Al2O3 catalyst tested in the microreactor demonstrated activity and stablity even in the presence of high SO2 concentration suggesting the possibility of its use in the marine sector; An unexpected phenomenon was found, the condensation process in which NOx are dissolved in SO3 mists, which need further studies to be completely elucidated; H2O and CO2 have only small negative influence on the NO oxidation but suppress the condensation; HC suppress NO oxidation, the necessity of oxidising the HC before NO oxidation becomes effective, has been demonstrated; Pilot plant tests revealed that the Ecocat catalyst is active for NO oxidation but the need to oxidise all the carbonaceous species was again confirmed; The monolith has an activity comparable to that found in the microreactor studies using model mixtures. In this way activities of powdered catalysts could be related to honeycomb analogues; The need to oxidize NO to NO2 to favour the absorption into the scrubber was confirmed; The scrubber effectively abates SOx; The problems of crusting and the excessive pressure drop found in the micro scrubber provided indications on how to modify the pilot plant; The real plant design and construction has been completed, in cooperation with the industrial partners; The catalytic section was designed and completed; The pilot plant is now ready for the tests.

Texto completoSince the Torrey Canyon oil spill, the International Maritime Organization began drafting three international conventions (CLC, HNS and bunker oil conventions) to establish civil liability for compensation for ship-source pollution damages. Claims for compensation for pollution damages (including clean-up costs) may be brought against the owner of ships which caused the damages or directly against the owner's insurer. The ship-owner is normally entitled to limit his liability to an amount which is linked to the tonnage of his ship. Furthermore, the IOPC funds which was set up in 1992 under the IOPC convention 1992 is able to compensate the victims when compensation under the CLC 1992 is not available or not adequate. But do these international regimes work well ? And are there conflicts between the International conventions ? Certainly, the most of loss resulting from oil spills from sea can be compensated by the CLC/ IOPC system. But the compensation under CLC/IOPC is not able to be enough for the major pollution events. If the CLC, HNS and bunker oil Conventions don't set up the same scopes, these International Conventions might be in conflict in case of transportation of dangerous goods or hazardous goods by sea, because the spill of the bunker oil and the hazardous goods would cause a major marine pollution. This paper gives an overview of international liability and compensation regime, and tries to give a proposal to resolve the conflicts between the international conventions

Texto completoOceanic plastic pollution is of major concern, with several million tons of plastic dumped in the ocean every year that are causing health threat to marine creatures. Impacts have been found at all the trophic chain levels from the zooplankton to the megafauna, but little is known on its impact on the microbial life and its crucial role in the oceanic ecosystem functioning. The objective of this thesis was to study the ecotoxicity of plastics in the marine environment. The first handled question was: how much the abundance, diversity and activity of bacterial life growing on plastic, i.e. the ‘plastisphere’ are driven by the chemical properties of the polymer and the environmental changes (Chapter 2)? Polyethylene (PE) and polylactide acid (PLA) together with glass controls in the forms of meso-debris (18mm diameter) and large-microplastics (LMP; 3mm diameter), as well as small-microplastics (SMP; of 100 m diameter with spherical and irregular shapes) were immerged during 2 months in seawater. We found that the plastic chemical composition, the successive phases of biofilm formation and the phytoplankton-bacteria interactions were more important factors driving the abundance, diversity and activity of the plastisphere as compared to material size and shape. The second handled question was: would the microplastic (polystyrene PS; 50-100 µm; three concentrations) together with their mature biofilm be toxic for the marine filter-feeder Branchiostoma lanceolatum and how much the plastisphere can influence this toxicity (Chapter 3)? We used a large set of complementary techniques to follow the microplastic ingestion (microscopy quantification) and the modification of the gut microbiota (16S rRNA Illumina Miseq sequencing), the gene expression of immune system, oxidative stress and apoptosis (Nanostring) and also histopathology (transmission electron microscopy). No obvious toxicity was observed, while microplastics could be a vector for bacteria to the gut microbiome, can induce more goblet cell differentiation and can surprisingly have a positive effect by supplying nutrients to amphioxus in the form of bacteria and diatoms from the plastisphere. The third handled question was: how much the conventional petroleum-based microbeads classically used in cosmetics can be substituted by other polymers for their biodegradability by the plastisphere in marine environment? (Chapter 4). We used complementary techniques to follow the 4 biodegradation steps including biodeterioration (granulometry, gravimetry and FTIR spectroscopy), biofragmentation (size exclusion chromatography, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance and high-resolution mass spectrometry), bioassimilation and mineralization (1H nuclear magnetic resonance and oxygen measurements). We concluded that microbeads made of polyhydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate (PHBV) or rice and in a lesser extend polycaprolactone (PCL) and apricot were good candidates for substitution of conventional microplastics, classically made of PE or polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) that were not biodegraded under our conditions. Interestingly, the biobased PLA was not biodegradable but the petroleum-based PCL was biodegradable under our marine conditions

Texto completoThere is no doubt that is necessary to organize an international action against the pollution in the Mediterrean Sea : 80% of the pollution in the Mediterrean Sea is due to shore activities. Moreover the Mediterranean Sea in intself is, by nature, a fragile sea with a small capacity of self-absorption. Consequently to these facts, on May the 17th 1980, the Mediterranean states have acted together and adpted the Athens Protocol in order to eliminate telluric pollution in the Mediterranean Sea. However original and fundamental this step is, looking at the result of the local action against telluric pollution in the Mediterranean Sea, it can be estblished that, 22 years after the adoption of the Athens Protocol, the general object (the elimination of telluric pollution) is far from being achieved. On the contrary, the pollution of the Mediterranean Sea from telluric sources has increased. On the one hand this unsatisfactory result is principally due to the insufficiency of the local legal system set in the Mediteranean Sea, and on the other to the failure in the international engagements cammiments of the Mediteranean states
