Plastic Odyssey's Departure from Boulogne Postponed Due to Asbestos Discovery
The 'Plastic Odyssey', a former oceanographic research vessel currently being converted into an innovative floating plastic recycling laboratory, faced an unexpected delay in Boulogne-sur-Mer. Originally scheduled to depart for Concarneau, the ship was found to contain asbestos during inspections conducted last week. Since its acquisition in October 2022, the vessel has been undergoing significant renovations aimed at combating plastic pollution in our oceans. With safety as the top priority, immediate measures were implemented to address the asbestos issue discovered in confined areas of the ship. As a result, the departure timeline has been adjusted, with the ship's exit from Boulogne now anticipated to be delayed by one to three weeks while the necessary removal processes are completed.
