Trial aims to clean up marina waters

June 18, 2025

A NEW trial is taking place in an effort to clean the water in Swansea Marina and rid it of debris.

Trial aims to clean up marina waters

Bucket-shaped devices known as sea bins will rise and fall with the tide and collect floating litter and debris.

As water is drawn in by a pump, it passes through a catch bag which then traps the waste.

Clean water is pumped back out, while litter and debris are safely contained for proper disposal.

Powered 24 hours a day, the sea bin at Swansea Marina has a capacity of 30 litres to collect waste.
