If you look around you will realize that we aren’t safe. World suffers many challenges. We try to solve one of them. This challenge revolves around earth’s oceans specially cleaning up the trash of ocean.

In Australian u-shape net is used to collect the waste plastic materials in the ocean and put them in a small area. It moves by wind and water waves. Their disadvantage is that the net hinders fish migration.

We used net to collect the waste material from the oceans. Peltier used to produce electricity from the difference on temperature. Sensor used to determine the area where have a waste plastic material. Ship used as a factory to recycle the waste plastic material.

the net diameter can be centimeters to reduce the resistant of the water on the net and make it move easy. To save fish migration the net tall was selected to be 6_meter then we will work on the plastic with little density (fishing equipment - plastic bags – etc.) Also adding glue (protein-based substance) that can be sticky under water on the net to prevent lose the collected material.

The net connected to a floating part on upper side that carries plastic sensors which helps detect plastic position and connected with lead masses to stretch the net because oxidation will not happen to it, we use bouncy law f=density *gravity *volume to help us design the floating part. By connecting two ships on the ends of the net to collect and recycle plastics which the net collected by working as factories then it produce a useful products.

by exploit the difference in the temperature between the oceans water and the exhaust manifold part on the ships by using Peltries to get the needed electricity for the ships to work as factories.by collecting the expected data, we get that we use 80 Peltiers in the two ships the total area of peltiers is 12.8m and the cost of the one peltiers is 30 so the total cost is 30*80=2400 L.E. Each Peltier can produce 2.001 watts When the difference in temperature is 100 Celsius. We used the NASA data because it makes Satellites to detect the area and the amount of plastics that we will work on. If the ocean contains 4.000 kg. /km our net can clean 80% of plastics.

according to the results its concluded that our project has a grateful impact on our life it will reduce plastic that consider the main source of the microplastics. it harms the organisms digestive and breath system. The operation of recycling plastic and convert it from waste to useful products without needing a huge amount of energy is support the economy of the user. Our team select some points that the following team who will work on the project can develop It recommended to work on distillate and filtration the water physically by reverse osmosis to support the workmen with a water during the work time.
