Port of Tallinn: Cleaning the Baltic Sea
06 May 2021
The Port of Tallinn contributes to improving the purity of the Baltic Sea by helping prevent the discharge of waste from ships into the sea. The harbours of the Port of Tallinn have adequate capacities for receiving any kind of waste from all ship calls. In addition the Port supports ships that have invested in scrubber systems in order to reduce sulphur compound (SOx) emissions to the air and accepts scrubber waste without any additional charge. All waste from ships is recycled, reused and handled in an environmentally sound manner. In 2019, 93% of waste in the port was reused following circular economy principles.
