Progress description |
Zie maatregel ANSBE-M012
|
Er werd in 2019, 2020 en 2021 intensief samengewerkt met de verzamelpunt voor de visserijsector (VVC Oostende) en verschillende recyclagebedrijven om enerzijds de inzameling van de oude visnetten te optimaliseren en anderzijds de recyclage van deze netten te realiseren. Hierbij wordt zoveel mogelijk gestreefd naar een model van circulaire economie. - zie ook hieronder (havenontvangstinstallaties in Oostende & Zeebrugge - maatregel ANSBE-M015)
|
Recyclage: havenontvangstinstallaties (ijzeren kooien) voor visnetten in Zeebrugge en Oostende; transport van 2 camions naar Cojarec voor verwerking. Verwerking tot co-fibres (Polyamide PA) als bedekking voor paddocks paarden; fracties Polyetheen (PE) en Polypropeen (PP) voorlopig nog niet voldoende materiaal om heel het productieproces aan te passen - doel= aanmaak plastic korrels of pellets. Onderzoek: eventueel inzetten visnetten in aquacultuur (denkpiste - terugkeer naar alternatieven zoals leer). Statiegeld: Met de nieuwe richtlijn tot verplichte rapportering van end-of life visnetten maar ook visnetten die op de markt gebracht worden; en in combinatie met het CEN dat een ISO standaard voor fishing gear maakt, lijkt het de geschikte kans om fishing gear ook aan uitgebreide producenten verantwoordelijkheid (UPV) te onderwerpen. UPV zorgt ervoor dat verkopers of producenten van visnetten zelf verantwoordelijk zijn om hun versleten producten terug aan te nemen en voor de opkuis of recyclage ervan te zorgen. OVAM heeft reeds ervaring met UPV met batterijen en grote toestellen en wil dit samen met Nederland verder onderzoeken of het voor Fishing gear ook uit te zoeken valt. - statiegeld overbodig dan? Taggen: Onder IMO, de herziening van de wet marien milieu en het scheepvaartswetboek kunnen we het verplicht maken om verlies van vistuig te melden. Dit is een mooi aanknopingspunt dat het belang van tagging of op zijn minst marking in gang gaat kunnen zetten. --> nu weinig animo vanuit sector + overheid (boetes implementeren lastig); mogelijke denkpiste = inzetten op die vaartuigen die al actief meewerken aan FFL etc.
