Agastya - Trash Boom
Trash, plastic packaging, and improperly disposed waste find their way into inland lakes, canals, rivers, streams and finally into the oceans. Floating trash and debris from inland waterways account for an estimated 80% of the world`s total marine pollution. Accumulation of waste debris in inland waterways and global water bodies pose a major threat to the marine ecosystem as well as the planet. Inland water bodies such as lakes, ponds, canals, rivers & streams are often clogged by the growth and spread of aquatic plants like water-hyacinth, algae, etc. This renders these water bodies to be unsuitable for use.
In line with the UNSDG # 14 – Life Under Water, Agastya Invention has designed their line of trash booms to effectively mitigate water surface pollution. These booms are ideal for isolating debris & invasive plant growth to control water pollution at potentially risk-prone sites like-
- Industrial sites
- Pumping stations
- Dams
- River confluences
- Nature reserves
- Harbors and coastal areas
Advantages of Trash Booms:
- Easy and efficient isolation of plastic debris and invasive plant growth
- Facilitates faster demarcation and collection of trash & debris
- Quick, hassle-free installation
- Minimal labour involved
- Eco-friendly and reusable hence cost-effective
