Nassarius /

The Nassarius is a sea scavenging sea stead that uses the natural wind and currents to skim the Pacific Garbage Patch. This platform not only collects the plastic but refines the plastic into a bio-fuel. The Nassarius houses a  plankton nusery for replenishing the ocean. The Nassarius houses a full time research team and supporting personnel while supplying areoponics for food and a desalination system for drinkable water with a solar hydro power system.

The Design comes from a hybrid of naval stealth hull technology and trimaran logic.The main hull has a two fixed wing sails, that,  along with the decks are covered in solar cells. Between the three hulls are two massive 30 meter deep intake channels. The large intakes channel the plastic and water through four individual netted intakes. Through a cutting edge technology by Plas2fuel where their process will "crack", the plastic into synthetic crude oil.
