Microplastic pollution harms marine ecosystems. Current solutions are costly and complex. A low-cost, portable filter is needed to capture microplastics in marine water and protect ocean.

The portable microplastic filtration device is designed to attach easily to the bilge or water outlet of small fishing and recreational boats. It effectively captures microplastics and small debris from both the water taken in and discharged by the vessel. By filtering contaminants at the source, the device prevents harmful pollutants from entering or leaving marine environments. This helps protect sensitive coastal ecosystems, supports sustainable fishing, and promotes cleaner, healthier oceans for future generations.
