"Dutch company RanMarine has deployed several 157-centimetre wide aquatic drones called WasteSharks that capture rubbish and bring it back to land. The drones can hold 160 litres of trash, floating plants and algae, according to RanMarine Technology.The aquatic tech is inspired by the whale shark, which swims with its mouth wide open to capture prey."
