Interesting facts According to a study of the Technical University of
Catalonia, the big oil tankers spill to the sea Mediterranean, in the Catalan zone inhabitant of the Balearic Islands, approximately 2.000 tons per year of hydrocarbons, for the most part in furtive tasks of cleanliness in high seas. For an oil tanker it is much cheaper to clean his tanks out of port.
Ways to prevent the pollution of water

To construct lavatories and septic wells. To construct plants of treatment of waste water. To realize educational campaigns to achieve
positive attitudes towards the conservation of the water.
