Plastic Pollution Challenge
The Waste Trap project addresses river plastic pollution by implementing an efficient waste operating system in canals and small rivers. The system screens and collects plastic waste, sorting recyclable materials for processing and directing non- recyclable waste to landfills.
We are an end-to-end river-bound plastic management solution leveraging local Lao technological innovations for screening and collecting plastic waste from canals and rivers. Our objective is twofold: to cleanse the Mekong River of harmful waste that impairs quality and causes flooding, and to repurpose ocean-bound plastic into valuable resources.
