Cocopure is an eco-friendly water filtration device designed to remove oil pollution from the sea. It uses biodegradable coconut husk and coconut shell, which are natural food waste materials, to absorb and filter out oil from contaminated water.

The device is built using a reused plastic water bottle, helping to reduce plastic waste and promote recycling. The coconut husk acts as an absorbent layer, while the coconut shell helps filter impurities.

In addition, Cocopure is equipped with a sensor system that can detect oil leakage from boats, allowing early action to prevent serious pollution.
