1 Impact of marine traffic and dredging activities on resuspension and release of contaminants from sediments in the port of Antwerp Hanne Hetjens 1, Johannes Teuchies 1, Ronny Blust 1, Agnes Heylen 2 1 SPHERE, University of Antwerp, 2020 Antwerpen, Belgium 2 Port of Antwerp, Havenhuis, 2030 Antwerpen, Blegium Hanne.Hetjens@uantwerpen.be +32 (0)
2 The problem with sediment resuspension 2
3 The port of Antwerp - Located at the Scheldt estuary - Area of hectares - Ma. water depth of ~18m - Highly industrialized area - Medium to bad water quality & (historically) polluted sediments (e.g. TBT, metals, PAHs )? - Intensive marine traffic (2014/2015 ~ records) & maintenance dredging (vision 2020: ca m 3 ) 3
4 Objectives 1. Evaluate the contribution of marine traffic and dredging activities on: - resuspension and transport of sediments and related contaminants 2. Characterize its impact on: - water quality and pollutant distribution within the port of Antwerp 4
5 What did we do? Field campaign -> 9 days on the boat (February April 2016) Peilboot ECHO IMDC Measurements: during resuspension events 5 - sediment concentrations, water velocity & salinity -> acoustic backscatter system: ADCP -> optical sensors: OBS-3A, SiltProfiler - water samples -> SPM concentrations -> Contaminants: TBT, PAH s, PCB s, Mineral Oil, Metals -> TOC, DOC Quantity, spatial and temporal distribution
6 Port of Antwerp right bank; HA What did we do? Study area Dredging Pieter Coeke Bed levelling tug, Delwaidedok Dredging and dumping Sebastiano Caboto Trailing suction hopper dredger, Kanaaldok B1, AMORAS Departure Bow Firda, 4e Havendok Tanker: length 183 m, width 32 m, draught 10.5m Docking Marianne, 3e Havendok Tanker: length 97 m, width 16 m, draught 8.8 m 6 GoogleMaps 23 ship manoeuvres, 2 dredging campaigns

14 Se dis (µg/l) Results 2. Contaminants correlations High eceedances of the WFD and VLAREM standards (>50%) by: - cadmium ; cobalt ; zinc ; arsenic & selenium (>30) - TBT bc SPM (mg/l) VLAREM standard higher than WFD, VLAREM standards -> ecotoicoligical risk 14

16 16 Conclusion and Discussion 1. SPM: TSH dredging highest effect on sediment resuspension followed by BLT dredging and shipping manoeuevres Highly variable factors important for resuspension intensity -> difficult to predict 2. Contaminants: Effects of sediment resuspension on contaminant concentrations in the water layer much smaller than epected -> overall eceedances of WFD and VLAREM standards system already under pressure -> surface water contamination not caused/worsened by sediment resuspension events -> even positive effects found 3. Calculated <-> measured: Often no correlation between contaminant and SPM concentrations in the water Measured concentrations mostly lower than calculated High variation in the dataset (e.g. SPM resuspension, KD values, calculated <-> measured etc.) predictions still highly comple and unsure
