Floating platform ECOCUBE

for solid waste collectionfor waste water collection

IDENTIFIED PROBLEM. The problem of discharging all types of waste into the sea due to the lack of suitable collection centers available to sailors has been identified. The only solid waste collection centers are located in marinas or ports, which are overloaded and unable to handle wastewater. SOLUTION. ECOcube; a floating collection station for solid waste and wastewater from vessels. Patent pending no: P20230887A DEFINITION. ECOcube is a modular floating object intended for the collection of solid and liquid waste from vessels. DIMENSIONS. Depending on the user’s needs, surface designs from 6 x 2.5 meters to 12 x 5 meters are possible ASSEMBLY. Simple assembly, the size of the parts adapted to standard transport. ABOUT THE PROJECT ADVANTAGES FOR SAILORS Easily accessible without the need to deviate from planned routes (no detours). Separate collection of all types of waste from vessels. Refilling vessels with desalinated water. ADVANTAGES FOR ENVIRONMENT Made entirely out of biocomposite materials. Fully autonomous, with no need for fuel. A center for collecting all types of waste, significantly reducing environmental pollution. Construction material: biocomposite – natural fibers and bioepoxy resin – patent pending for the biocomposite manufacturing process number: P20211881A. The necessary energy for operation is obtained from 30 kWh installed battery packs supplemented by 7 kW photovoltaic panels. The construction materials and required energy sources place ECOcube in the group of products with a very low impact on the environment. Monitoring and controlling
