Seabin Project by Pete Ceglinski and Andrew Turton: Cleaning our Oceans One Marina at a Time
Geschreven op 22-12-2015 - Erik van Erne. Geplaatst in Afval
The Seabin Project have designed and made an automated rubbish bin that catches floating rubbish, oil, fuel and detergents.
It designed for floating docks in the water of marinas, private pontoons, inland waterways, residential lakes, harbours, water ways, ports and yacht clubs.
Can even be fitted to super yachts and motor yachts!
Right now Pete Ceglinski (left) Andrew Turton (right) have a perfectly working prototype and they need the help of Indiegogo and supporters to set up a production of the Seabins to be built in the most sustainable and responsible way we can afford.
The marinas, ports and yacht clubs are the perfect place to start helping clean our oceans. There are no huge open ocean swells or storms inside the marinas, its a relatively controlled environment. The wind and currents are constantly moving the floating debris around in our oceans and in every port, marina or yacht club there is always some pollution heavy areas based on the predominant wind and current directions.
By working with these ?marinas, ports and yacht clubs we can locate the seabin in the perfect place ?and mother nature brings us the rubbish to catch it. Sure we cant catch everything right now but its a really positive start.? It’s a big mission, but it can be done.
