Wastes that infiltrate the bodies of water affects the ecosystem of the marine life
and jeopardizes the resources that we are benefiting with. These wastes vary in forms and
properties that took part in water pollution. Among these wastes that are improperly
disposed on marine areas are the oil in the form of spills and leakages that are caused by
damaged tankers, pipelines, or off-shore oil rigs. These leakages and spills may cause short
to long-term damage on aquatic resources with most reported issues of decades of negative
effect. When oil eventually stop floating on the surface of the water and begins to sink into
the deeper marine environment, it can have similar damaging effect, killing and
contaminating fish and other smaller organisms that are essential in the balance of the food
chain. In line with these problems, our project seeks to provide a marine garbage conveyor
collector with Ceiba “Kapok” Pentandra as a biological component in extracting oil.
The project centers on a machine with a system of operations that work both as a
garbage collector and oil extractor. A collection of sensors and electronic components are
situated on the machine for fully automatic functionality. A microcontroller, Mega
Arduino, delivers the major processes of the machine with NRF for the remote controlling
capability. Ultrasonic sensors are used for indicators in order to monitor the weight and
volume of the loads- oil and garbage. The machine is comprised of two motors for the
garbage collector conveyor and oil extractor conveyor and two propellers for maneuvering
the machine.
