On September 22 (the exact shooting time is unknown), SeaCleaners designed and launched a huge hybrid sailing ship, Manta, which strengthens its resistance to marine plastic debris.
This is the first ship used to collect, process and reuse large amounts of plastic waste floating on the coast, estuaries and sea estuary and other contaminated waters.
This deep-sea vessel mainly relies on renewable energy, can travel across the ocean, and can intervene quickly whenever it is needed. Manta will be officially put into use in 2024, will not use fossil fuels 75% of the time, and can travel automatically.
It will be able to collect 5,000 to 10,000 tons of floating plastic each year.
