Dutch teenager invents solar energy marine recycling ship

The main body of the project is a clean recycling ship shaped like an arrow

The pollution of the earth's environment by human beings has become increasingly serious, especially the pollution of the marine environment, which has caused a general increase in the amount of garbage in the ocean. In particular, garbage from plastic materials not only threatens the survival of marine organisms, but also affects the safety of human ship navigation and food safety. In order to effectively clean up the plastic waste in the sea, a 19-year-old student in the Netherlands, Bojan Slater, announced that he has invented a huge marine garbage collector that can clean up 20 billion tons of marine water in 5 years. Plastic trash.

Slater is from Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands. He has been planning this marine plastic waste recycling project since 2012. According to its assumptions, the collection of plastic garbage is a series of clean recycling boats with floating screens floating on the sea surface. The shape of the ship is like an arrow. After the plastic floating on the sea is intercepted by the fence, it will flow along the seawater to gather at the collection ports on both sides of the clean recovery boat and be collected and stored at the back of the ship. Floating gates are made of special materials that not only float easily on the surface of the sea, but also do not break easily. Because there are no meshes inside the floating grille and the cleaning vessel, plankton and fish can pass without damage.

At present, governments of all countries invest large amounts of financial resources, material resources, and human resources to manage marine pollution every year, but the effects and inputs often do not match. Slater said that in addition to the initial investment in his project, the subsequent operating costs are almost zero, and even some gains. He introduced that these clean recycling ships use solar energy and tidal energy as their power. While realizing self-sufficiency, they can also bring huge economic benefits of 500 million U.S. dollars a year to investors by selling their recycled plastics.

Slater stated on his personal website: "Although this idea has yet to be tested, I believe that if this clean ship is to be placed in all five oceans, let it drift along the ocean itself on the sea for as long as five years in the ocean. Most of the plastic garbage can be cleaned up.” At the same time, he also called for people to pay attention to the recycling of resources and minimize plastic packaging.

With this project plan, Slater has won many innovation awards. At present, he has established the "Cleaning Fund for the Ocean" and posted a notice on the site, hoping that people of insight can work with him to develop the project. (Huang Yanfang)
