Bubble Barrier Vila do Conde catches plastic pollution before it flows into the Atlantic Ocean

The Bubble Barrier Vila do Conde has been implemented as a pilot for the EU project MAELSTROM. If the pilot is successful the project will be adopted by the city of Vila do Conde.
The pilot part of the project is funded for 70% by the EU. The remaining 30% and the additional costs to make the project permanent are supported by the municipality of Vila do Conde, and our partners outside of the MAELSTROM consortium: Schmidt Marine Technology Partners, Stop!MicroWaste and the Engie Foundation.

Nice to know you`re still here :)

A newer video, great. Am still waiting to see this barrier stopping plastics, all I see is bubbles. I do not see how this would work on heavier items like diaper's, or in higher water flows. The cost to build and install must be high, I will stick with using used tires and plastics bottles to get the job done,,,,trash stopping trash. Would love to see you come to the Philippines and try your bubble barrier here, we need so many.
