Description of the project

Project carried out by the first marine cooperative of the Balearics. The main objective is the drafting of the project: “Zero waste management at sea for waste generated on recreational vessels”, based on the circular economy and compliance with the Agenda 2030 objectives.

Two services are proposed:

• Collection of solid waste assimilable to urban waste (SUW)

• Collection of grey and black water from anchored vessels in compliance with the MARPOL -Marine Pollution- International Convention

The collection of MSW will increase the municipal selective collection rate, while the collection of grey and black water will reduce a potential source of eutrophication and pollution of marine waters.

Specific objectives:

• Support for the initial analysis (technical report and financial budget).

• Pilot phase implementation.

• Dissemination and replication of the project.
