Interceptors 008, 009, and 010 have collected ≈1357 kg of trash in Kingston, Jamaica. We are still trialing and optimizing this setup – special attention goes to the offloading process that will be put to the test during the rainy season when we expect a larger trash influx.

What happens to the plastic once extracted from the Great Pacific Garbage Patch? 1. We sort it on deck into two main categories: fibrous and rigid plastics. 2. We pack, weigh, tag, and secure it with tamperproof seals. 3. We return it to shore for recycling.

Every river is different. They have different currents, different vessel traffic, big tidal differences. That’s why we have this portfolio of different kinds of Interceptors where we can always choose the right solution for each of these diverse sets of circumstances.
