From Italian wikipedia ...
Quote:
The white beaches are a stretch of about four kilometers of sandy coastline of the town of Rosignano Marittimo in Tuscany between the villages of Solvay and the center of the hamlet of Vada. [1] Wet from the Ligurian Sea, [2] are all ' extreme northern edge of the Maremma coast.

The unusual color of the sand, which is why the beach is compared to the tropical coasts, is a result of years of work and the discharge of calcium carbonate from a plant of the Solvay Group, located in Solvay, about a kilometer from coast. [3] The sodiera, which happens to be the largest in Europe, [4] was built in 1912 near the beach, starting its activity in 1914, producing, as well as sodium carbonate, hydrogen peroxide, polyethylene, calcium chloride, sodium bicarbonate and hydrogen chloride. [4] Access to the beach is given by a small hill, which until 1983 (but kept open until 1986) was used as a landfill production waste and domestic waste. [5]

Because of the discharge of Solvay, including therefore the mercury, which is released in the works through electrolysis, and other pollutants, [6] the White Beaches are among the most polluted cities in Italy and fishing adjacent waters is extremely small. [7] [4] In addition, this part of the coast is among the 15 most polluted coastal sites of the Mediterranean Sea, according to the United Nations Environment Programme, the United Nations program for the environment. [8]
