Solution Overview

The practical side of our solution is measured by our data collection program. We have now collected over 1000 lines of data from Seabins operating in 15 countries. Data collection follows a protocol and is randomly completed by various independent groups and submitted to Seabin. Our data collection program will continue to expand as Seabins are delivered. From this data we have established that the average collection per seabin globally is 1.4 tonnes per annum. Our record collection in a 24 hour period is 720kgs where the catch bag was emptied as soon as it was full.The education and awareness side of solution is measured by participation and delivery of programs using the Seabins within that area as communication tools. Additionally, our viewing interactions are measurable. At the chosen sites we deliver a complete solution to the management of debris in that waterway from installation of a system of Seabins, advice to local governments and communities on stopping the flow of debris to waterways. At these installation sites we will provide technical and educational support through the employment of locals to manage, maintain and deliver the Seabin programs. In developing areas this will be expanded to supplying the infrastructure to capture the waste through community cooperation. Over a 5 year grant period, our impact will be measured by the quantity of debris collected, once we have established a baseline for that area, a reduction in debris captured is a direct correlation to the success of our education and awareness
