With the increasing amount of marine litter, especially plastic pollution resulting in micro and macro-plastics, found in the world’s seas and the negative effects of these unnatural materials in such significant quantities, it has become even more crucial to address this issue and to create effective and sustainable solutions to address this escalating problem. Systems that can control, recover and contain marine litter and debris are essential solutions to combate marine litter before they can reach larger bodies of water and breakdown, negatively affecting marine life and ecosystems. Marine litter prevention and ocean conservancy begins with better understanding of the root causes of ocean pollution and addressing these issues, New Naval has developed the CLEAN TRASH system to directly remove plastic and litter from river mouths before the litter can reach ocean systems.
Our solution against micro plastics pollution
Key Features
- The system utilizes a combination of active operational systems and time-tested equipment
- Built for continuous, long-term use
- Ideal for use in a variety of environments
- Heavy-duty containment boom with solid cylindrical floats with a subsurface skirt contains and guides litter
- Auxiliary fence type booms drive/deflect/pace incoming litter to the collection cage
- Can be built in customized lengths for client specific needs
- A floating foundation attaches to the boom and holds the removable collection cage
- The hot-dipped galvanized steel collection cage utilizes 3 separate collection chambers/levels that lower and raise to store the litter (down to 5 mm in size). The cage is equipped with lifting points and a sliding door
- Independent floats utilize salvage technology to move the storage level. They can be raised and lowered by satellite when a level is filled
- Remote operation and observation versions are available with the development of standalone models optional
Areas of Application
- Both at lakes and sea
- Construction Sites
- Dredging Sites
- Remediation Projects
- Sensitive Areas
- Hotels and Resorts
