River Whale
waste collector for river cleaning and ocean protection<\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Every year, 8 million tons of plastics<\/strong> end up in our oceans, 80% directly coming from our rivers<\/strong>… <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The solution to limit the pollution of rivers<\/strong> and to slow down the extension of “plastic oceans<\/strong>” must therefore be located upstream of the river mouths<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\r\n

Acting upstream<\/h2>\r\n

H2OPE has developed an innovative solution for the collection of waste in aquatic environment<\/strong>, based on the principle of a collector network, capable of retaining waste<\/strong> circulating along watercourses.<\/strong><\/p>\n

After a detailed phase of study, H2OPE locates its waste collectors<\/strong> on strategic points of\u00a0 the waterway, where drifting or semi-submerged objects are likely to accumulate, like a natural dam, before being recovered to integrate the recycling and revalorization process<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\n\n\n

Directly Inspired from a whale and its baleen, River Whale filters water by holding waste<\/strong>. In this way it cleans rivers<\/strong> and acts against pollution of the oceans<\/strong>.
H2OPE aims to create a waste collector according to the following lines: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
