This is a machine that separates the microplastics from sea water.A vacum tube that sucks the sea water.The water goes up along a tube.the goes through a filter.Waterproof fans throw this water back to the sea.When the tube doesn't have any water a side door opensand the microplastics fall inside a container.

Little Inventors team says

Micro plastics are very hard to take out of the oceans because they are all so tiny! The filter system and tube you have invented will ensure even the smallest of pieces are collected - keeping our oceans clean and helping to protect sea life. Great job Lau and Lluc!
