Seabin Article
According to Seabin Project (2019), microplastics and microfibres are now considered one of the greatest threats to the marine environment to the marine ecosystem as they collect organic pollutants faster than inorganic particles, and marine animals accidentally ingest them. This problem is so acute that the United Nations (UN) is calling for actions to be taken.
It also mentions that Seabin technology captures all surrounding debris and also removes considerable amounts of microplastics 2mm and greater, preventing the particles from breaking down into smaller pieces in the water.
The article states that the Seabin method is cheaper and more time-efficient compared to the standard method used. It is also being studied as an alternative scientific monitoring tool. The Seabin Project joins current global efforts to reduce microplastic and microfiber loads in the ocean. More research and development are carried out so that the Seabin will be able to remove even smaller particles of microplastics in the near future.
Hi Syafiq, below are some of my suggestions after reading your summary
ReplyDelete1) you can elaborate on the functionality of the Seabin Technology, eg how the technology works and compare with the standard methods
2) add more description on the filter part
