垃圾桶
阻止塑料进入河流的漂浮屏障
TrashBoom是一个漂浮的屏障，用于捕捉河流中的塑料垃圾，防止其进入海洋。当地采购的材料能够快速制造，促进当地经济，同时提高社会的认识。由于不涉及运输，这就节省了时间、金钱和排放。它还提高了可扩展性，使该解决方案在针对水道中的超低价值塑料和不可回收物时变得可行。最小化的自动化和复杂性创造了工作机会，并确保维护和修理的方便。开源蓝图允许重新建造，并创造全球影响。

Designer(s)
Moritz Schulz; Karsten Hirsch
Moritz Schulz comes from graphic design and currently studies Industrial Design at the Bergische Universität Wuppertal. To develop the TrashBoom, he took a break to take immediate action but continued to finish his bachelor's and sharpen his skills for future UN-goal-related projects.
Karsten Hirsch developed the Startup "Plastic Fischer" to utilize the TrashBoom and establish our vision of clean oceans. Before shifting his focus to ocean pollution and the global plastic crisis, he studied law.
We both come from plastic-unrelated fields but wanted to make a change and went for it.
