New Approach to Remove Plastic from the Sea

A new approach has been designed to filter plastic from the water. Its most important feature is that it uses the flow in the water to accumulate micro-plastic particles, then calms the water so that the micro-plastic can be skimmed from the surface. A prototype is planned for a polluting river mouth.
