The offshore wind energy sector is a rapidly growing renewable energy industry worldwide. The concern that this rapid growth may have effects on the marine environment has drawn the attention of scientists in various fields. In this context, this article provides an overview of chemical emissions from sources such as corrosion protection systems and microplastics, which are pollutants for marine ecology. It discusses their significance and potential impacts on the marine environment, as well as proposing strategies to reduce these emissions.
 Corrosion is a common issue for offshore structures, requiring corrosion protection systems to maintain structural integrity. These systems often have galvanic anodes that can release significant amounts of metals directly into seawater. Additionally, microplastics and their compound pollutants are toxic to some marine organisms, affecting their growth, feeding, reproduction, and other physiological activities. Moreover, microplastics can pose potential risks to humans through the consumption of marine and terrestrial food products and drinking water.
 While current assumptions suggest a low environmental impact for these two main pollutants, there is insufficient monitoring data to assess the environmental impact of this new source from a chemical perspective. This study represents the first chemical evaluation of the effects of pollutants such as corrosion protection systems and microplastics used in offshore wind turbines on marine ecology. The results obtained can serve as a reference for many future studies.
