According to the article “Introducing the Seabin Project” (2018), the Seabin works like a filter that captures the water with pollutants in it, separates them from the water, and makes it clean. Jateff stated that the Seabin requires an external power source that actuates a motor to “pump water to create a vortex”, allowing the Seabin to suck in pollutants along with the water. The pollutants are then captured by a detachable “catch-bag”, allowing only water to flow through. However, the bag cannot capture bulky objects. Jateff also mentioned that the Seabin can collect microplastic fibers, and absorb “petroleum-based oils and detergents.” Although the Seabin is made with recyclable materials, the project team wishes to make the catch-bag recyclable, and improve the Seabin’s power sourcing. Jateff explained the Seabin is limited by its own size when it comes to efficiency in collecting large-size garbage and a large amount of garbage. However, the Seabin can be used for educational lea...
