Witteveen + Bos: SA-PoD Systems Approach for Port Development
Auteur: Witteveen+Bos
Port developments around the world, West Africa included, often impact the coastal environment, posing challenges like erosion and degradation of environment with negative socio-economic implications. To develop sustainable ports solutions which are adaptable to climate change and have net positive value a paradigm shift is required from a conventional, economic and engineering oriented approach to a stakeholder inclusive and environmental, social and economic integrated approach.

IMDC: BESand - The Blue Energy Sand-Bypass System
With BESand, the Blue Energy Sand-Bypass System, IMDC offers a UNIQUE, INNOVATIVE and FEASIBLE solution to fight coastal erosion associated with the ongoing development of large commercial ports. In many cases port infrastructure intersects the littoral drift, which leads to erosion downdrift. BESand’s groundbreaking innovation is transferring wave energy back into sediment transport movement. This is achieved by an integrated concept consisting of a multipurpose breakwater, a novel hybrid Wave Energy Convertor (h-WEC) and a sand-bypass system powered by blue energy. Port infrastructure becomes thus part of the solution by creating strategic sediment reservoirs and by restoring the natural sediment supply.

Managing Coastal Risks in West Africa
Auteur: World Bank Group
Coastal erosion is a naturally occurring process that is accelerated by human impacts. Artificial stabilization of the shoreline, the deterioration of natural formations, the construction of infrastructure, the extraction of materials, and the proliferation of dams deprive fragile coastal areas of important sediment deposits, which leads to erosion.

Gérer les risques côtiers en Afrique de l’Ouest
Auteur: World Bank Group
Lérosion côtière est un phénomène naturel, accéléré par l’activité humaine. La stabilisation artificielle du littoral, la détérioration des formations naturelles, la construction d’infrastructures, l’extraction de matériaux et la multiplication des barrages privent ces zones côtières fragiles d’apports sédimentaires importants et favorisent l’érosion.
