Ocean Cleanup Systems and Achievements

In 2023, Ocean Cleanup achieved significant milestones, starting with Interceptor 11 in Jamaica and Interceptor 7 in the USA. The transition from System 002 to System 03 marked a major upgrade, with System 03 capable of cleaning a football field-sized area every 5 seconds. Interceptor 6 in Guatemala became the most impactful, capturing 1.4 million kg of trash in three months. System 002 retired with a record haul, and new interceptors were deployed in Malaysia, Indonesia, and Jamaica. The year concluded with a call to action for continued support in 2024.
