Market overview
Human society generates immense amounts of waste arising from the production and utilization of food as well as industrial and consumer goods. A considerable amount of this waste eventually ends up in the oceans. The increasing load of nutrients, pollutants and general littering of the oceans are a growing cause for concern
Every year, large amounts of litter enter the sea. As plastics are particularly durable, the mass of plastic debris in the world’s oceans is steadily increasing. A recent NCEAS study calculated that roughly 8 million metric tons of plastics ends up in the oceans annually.
Marine oil pollution has decreased in recent decades. International conventions and regulations have all made a contribution here, but still it is on an unacceptable level
According to Grand View Research the global oil spill management market was worth USD 100.66 billion in 2015 and is increasing due to enhanced safety concerns and stricter rules and regulations.
