Plastic pellet pollution detected in North Sea

Following the collision in the North Sea between the container ship Solong and the tanker Stena Immaculate, industrial plastic pellet pollution has been detected in the water near a bay approximately 70 kilometers south of the accident site, as well as along a 30-kilometer stretch of coastline that includes several nature reserves.

According to British authorities, the observed pellets are charred and emit a kerosene odor, reinforcing the hypothesis that the pollution is linked to the collision.
