The independent project, Vox Maris, supported by the municipal administration led by Mayor Maria Lucia Tirotto, aims to develop an innovative and systematic model for the collection, management, and recycling of end-of-life fishing nets. The event in the Doria city is scheduled for Monday, November 16, starting at 8:30 a.m., at the tourist port. The collection involves fishermen placing their nets in designated containers (big bags). The nets must be disarmed beforehand, freed of hooks, floats, leads, ropes, and other foreign objects, and separated by material type. The four main polymer categories identified are polyamide (PA/Nylon), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), and polyester (PET). To ensure proper identification, Vox Maris will use the Trinamix sensor, a technology that allows for the plastic composition of nets to be recognized in the field and ensures proper sorting and traceability. Once collected, the materials will be transferred to a single sorting center in Sardinia for appropriate pre-treatment and then sent to specialized processing companies. "Embrace this project," says Environment Councilor Christian Speziga, "means making a concrete contribution to protecting our sea and safeguarding the local area. The municipal administration strongly believes in the importance of promoting circular economy initiatives that actively involve fishermen and transform an environmental problem into an opportunity for sustainability for the area." City Councilor Alessandro Pinna, who oversees the project, echoes his sentiments: "Castelsardo is a community deeply connected to the sea and its maritime traditions. Participating in a project like Vox Maris means caring for our natural heritage and supporting a virtuous path that restores value to materials that would otherwise become waste."
