Impact of Fuel Waste Emission on Pollution of Ocean Water

Abstract

As ocean is taking about 70% of the whole globe, the pollution problem of earth is severe and should be drawn more attention to. With this research paper, it can inform the readers on how severe the problem is, what is the cause of the global issue—ocean pollution and how to improve, modify and change. This research paper discusses about the issue existing nowadays—ocean pollution and analyze it from the perspective of fuel wasted emission. The cause is analyzed from mainly two angles, the wastes generated by shipping industry and the waste generated by coal burning industry. Furthermore, the process of waste emitted from engines and the process of burning coal and the component of heavy fuel oil discharged is explained. Moreover, the negative impact on various aspects is explored and several possible solutions are provided, for example limiting the polluting components in a commonly used fuel—HFO and developing machineries to reduce and eliminate the smoke produced during process. The paper wants to gather readers attention, raise awareness on this global issue and make suggestions that can make a change.
