The prevention and control of marine pollution / Tewfik Larbi Brahimi 

Public ISBD Titre : The prevention and control of marine pollution Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Tewfik Larbi Brahimi, Auteur ; R. Barratt, Directeur de thèse Editeur : Birmingham : University of Aston Année de publication : 1984 Importance : 78 f. Présentation : ill. Format : 30 cm. Note générale : Mémoire de Master : Environmental and Occupational Health : Birmingham, University of Aston : 1984 Bibliogr. f. 79 - 83 . Annexe f. 84 - 118 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Marine  pollution Polluants Waste  treatment  techniques Sea  disposal Index. décimale : Ms00584 Résumé : In this present work, the various parameters related to the marine environment i.e. aquatic ecosystem, biodegradation, the biological oxygen demand and the effects of classes of pollutants on the marine environment are described. The main prevention and control measures in the field of marine pollution are reviewed and their limitations considered. These measures fall into three categories: a/ Legislation: International conventions. b/ The assessment of the behaviour of pollutants in the marine environment, using mathematical models. c/ Use of waste treatment techniques and disposal methods other than sea disposal. It is recognised that the prevention of marine pollution, from ship-based sources, is best dealt with at the global level whereas land-based sources and dumping operations in shallow seas are best dealt with at the Regional and ultimately the National level. However, the implementation and enforcement of the provisions and regulations laid down in various international conventions, are still problems that need to be overcome. The accuracy of the mathematical models used for the assessment of the transportation and distribution of pollutants once discharged at sea could be questioned since various factors, such as currents, salinity, temperature and tides vary in scale and with time. Thus, the need for monitoring the marine environment is necessary where discharges occur i.e. estuarine and coastal waters. The industry should be encouraged to have on-site waste treatment facilities in order to reduce the pollution load of their discharges. Ideally industry should consider the control of the content of effluents at the design of the process that would be used. Finally, a better understanding of the marine environment and the effects of pollutants on marine organisms would allow for the setting of standards that could be met in qualitative and quantitive terms.
