This system concentrates ocean plastic in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, so it can easily be removed and brought back to shore for recycling.

In mid-2018, a 600m-long cleanup system will be deployed in the ocean between Hawaii and San Francisco, California, USA. A full-scale deployment of its systems is estimated to clean up 50% of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch within five years. The Ocean Cleanup develops advanced technologies to rid the world's oceans of plastic. Solving it requires a combination of closing the source and cleaning up what has already accumulated in the ocean. If left to circulate, the plastic will impact ecosystems, health and economies. The largest of these is the Great Pacific Garbage Patch located between Hawaii and San Francisco, USA.

Siqura sponsors the valuable work on this project by providing this state-of-the-art technology at a discounted price.Īcross the globe, ocean-borne trash has accumulated in five so-called ‘ocean garbage patches’. The Ocean Cleanup decided to choose Siqura’s camera after a competitive selection process. Siqura’s marine dome camera will assist The Ocean Cleanup Foundation in its work in the Pacific Ocean starting mid-2018.
