Cool: River cleaning 24/7 💦
But: Let’s close the tap first! 🚱
River Cleaning, an Italian startup, has developed an innovative rotating buoy: “The spinning cog”.
This eco-friendly solution harnesses the river’s natural currents to effectively capture plastic waste, directing it toward collection points along the banks.
1️⃣ Self-Powered Technology:
The buoy operates entirely on the energy generated by the river’s flow, eliminating the need for external power sources.
2️⃣ Navigability Maintained:
The design allows boats to pass freely, ensuring that river transport remains unaffected.
While this technology is a significant step forward, on plastic pollution.
