Abstract: | The Terengganu state is partially bordered by 244 Km of coastline facing the South China Sea which there are dense oil exploration and maritime transportation activities. These activities are potential in causing oil pollution in the South China Sea. Tar balls are formed from oil spill residual on sea. It can be suspended in the sea or settled at the bottom for many years. It also can travel for a long journey before it is being washed up to the beach. In this period, it can undergo a series of weathering process to reduce low molecular weight hydrocarbons content. |
