Fishing port, commercial port and marina. Presence of a fish market Flotilla of 55 fishing vessels :
mainly dredgers & caseyeur (pot vessels)
3 Big Bags of 1m3 & 1 crate behind the fish auction hall for : trawl and dredge netting / nets / ropes / used traps & pots.
• VALNET project (2023-2024): reuse of used fishing gear by incorporating their fibres to create eco-responsible fibre-reinforced concrete.
• Experiment conducted by Fil&Fab and WWF: trawl nets recycling (shredding tests planned for 2024).
• Local reuse initiatives:
o Reuse of trawls by recreational fishermen to make pots for their fishing activities.
o Recycled by second-hand shops to create new objects.
o Pochons’ project: recycling oyster bags to design bags
• One sorting area and one dedicated staff member
• EOLFG placed in Big Bags by category for transport to the dedicated reuse channels
Management costs: no data Quantity: 1,964 T in 2022 (FINEOR project)
• Recycling of certain EOLFGs is complicated, especially when material are mixed (e.g. rock hopper, dredge netting…).
• No sorting equipment, which is currently done on the ground.
• Sorting station is far away, which makes sorting less efficient.
• Recycling channels still almost non-existent.
• Net cuttings that may fall into sewers or the harbour water.
EOLFG collection well established among fishermen and sorting in place within the port
• Objectives:
o Sustainable recycling channels and development on a larger scale
o Solutions to identify reuse possibilities depending on the degree of contamination of fishing gear
o Improve monitoring of various indicators (tonnage, hours of work required for sorting, etc.) for better management
