Eco patrol and control vessel - EPACV

Ever increasing sea and ocean pollution requires monitoring but also an intervention, removal of pollutants. Although spectacular and eye- catching the liquid pollution such as oil spillage is perhaps not the most damaging. Plastics are the most threatening in the long run. Disintegration in the renewal cycle can practically be disregarded. Sea is not able to dissolve it and amounts of plastic refute are not only massed on the sea bed but are also floating, creating lumps, quasi islands. Such plastic floating mass has been detected in all oceans. All Mediterranean countries have been affected especially as it is an enclosed sea basin and an EU effort would be the best way to treat this problem. Paper discusses the need for the flexible type of vessel with modular possibilities able to patrol, monitor and control the situation and deal with the litter in situ. Side view of suggested EPAC is enclosed.
