DEVELOPING ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES TO RID THE WORLD’S OCEAN OF PLASTIC
The Ocean Cleanup is designing and developing cleanup systems to remove what is already polluting our oceans, and to intercept plastic on its way to the ocean via rivers. Solving ocean plastic pollution requires a combination of stemming the inflow and cleaning up what has already accumulated.
OCEAN SYSTEMS
The Ocean Cleanup is developing a passive ocean cleanup technology, that moves with the currents – just like the plastic – to catch it. By deploying a fleet of systems, The Ocean Cleanup has estimated to be able to remove 50% of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch every five years.
