I felt I had to do something. "Marine life and water are sent back to the ocean, while waste is segregated into five more parts," Kazi said.

He said a sensor fitted in the ship segregates the plastic waste according to its size.The machine he designed sucks in water from the ocean, which is then segregated between marine life and waste.
