The Seabin Project addresses marine pollution by capturing debris, microplastics, and oil from water surfaces. Installed in marinas and harbors, it provides a localized solution to ocean cleanup where traditional methods fall short. While effective at surface-level waste removal, its limitations include reliance on fixed locations, maintenance needs, and inability to tackle deeper water pollution. Research highlights its value in continuous waste collection but underscores the need for broader changes, like reducing plastic production and improving waste management. By integrating technology with conservation, the Seabin raises awareness and encourages proactive practices, contributing to sustainable marine protection alongside systemic efforts.
