Maersk forlænger plastikoprydning med et år

Maersk Supply Service har siden 2018 støttet The Ocean Cleanup, der forsøger at rydde op i de enorme øer af plastikaffald, der driver rundt i Stillehavet ved hjælp af en særlig udviklet teknologi. Nu forlænger rederiet aftalen for Maersk Tender og Maersk Trader i et år mere.

Den seneste udgave af Ocean Cleanup System 002 består af en 800 meter lang flydespærring med et net, der opfanger plastic-affaldet, når det med lav fart bliver trukket gennem havet af de to Maersk Supply fartøjer.

Affaldet bliver efterfølgende samlet op og sorteret på skibene.

Foreløbig har projektet opsamlet 67.000 tons plastik

Udviklingen af System 03 - en endnu større version - er i fuld gang og er en del af en fremtidig opskalering af indsamlingen af plastikaffald i oceanerne, som der desværre hele tiden bliver mere af.

Således vurderer Ocean Cleanup at mellem 1,2 og 2,4 mio. tons plastikaffald hvert år havner som forurening af verdens havene.
