The first floating wind was opened in North Sea


The first wind that floats on water has been inaugurated in Norwegian waters in the North Sea.

Called Hywind, the turbine is 65 meters tall and weighs 5,300 tons. The first such device that can be used even in deep waters 120 to 700 meters.

Hywind will begin to produce energy in a few weeks, the filmmakers say the project.

The technology could be used by countries like Japan, South Korea, the United States and Spain.

Record of PET dive

River Lady could enter the Guinness Book of Records as the number of PET floating on its waters. We might think that the bottles in the river exceeding the number of fish.

Citarum river most polluted in the world


Citarum river waters, which is near Djakarta, capital of Indonesia, are the most polluted in the world.
Over 500 factories discharge their waste into the river, largely consist of chemicals used to treat textile materials they produce.

Not only do they waste the most polluted Citarum river in the world, but droppings, plastic bottles, rubber gloves, the remains of mobile or carcasses. Local residents have no sanitary facilities and drinking water.
Domestic waste is dumped directly into the river and the water is then used for cooking or washing. Locals do not fish, because this occupation is not profitable, however insignificant amounts recovered for all floating on the river waters.
Citarum is a real outbreak of infection, not infrequently its waters, where play or bathing, carrying with them viruses that can trigger epidemics ever. Ecological disaster of the childrenCitarum began in the '80s, with the rapid industrialization of the area, but none ever polluters not to protect or green waters of this river.

WATER POLLUTION

Water is an important factor in ecological equilibrium, and pollution is a problem with the current consequences more or less serious about the people.
By water pollution is the alteration of the physical, chemical and biological characteristics of water, produced directly or indirectly by human activities and making the water unfit to become normal use for the purposes for which such use was possible to intervene before the alteration. The effects of pollution of water resources are complex and varied, depending on the nature and concentration of the substances impurificatoare. Solving these problems posed by water pollution is done by treatment, to ensure the necessary conditions for consumption. Pollution may be natural or artificial. Pollution due to natural sources of pollution and natural produce from the interaction of water with the atmosphere when there is a gas dissolved in it, with the lithosphere, is produced when soluble rocks dissolve and the living organisms in water. Pollution due to artificial sources of wastewater of any kind, water meteors, sludge, residue, etc. navigation. We can talk about controlled and uncontrolled pollution. Pollution control (organized) refers to pollution due to wastewater being transported through the sewage and discharged at points set by some projects. Uncontrolled pollution (unorganized) comes from sources of pollution that reach the emissary naturally, most often through rain water. Normal and accidental pollution categories impurification is used to define groups of sources of wastewater. Pollution comes from normal sources of pollution are known, collected and transported through the sewage treatment plant at the station or directly to the receiver. Accidental pollution occurs, for example, as a result of industrial processes dereglării when large amounts (abnormal) of harmful substances get into the sewerage network or as a result of disruption of targets preepurare station or treatment plant. It can talk about primary and secondary pollution. Pollution is primary, for example, on submission of suspended substances in waste waters, discharged into a receiver on the bed. Secondary pollution occurs, for example, once the gases resulting from fermentation of organic material deposited substances involve suspension and the remaining suspension to bring the water surface, where are then transported downstream by water current.
