This is the inventor's website: http://www.boyanslat.com/plastic5/ http://www.boyanslat.com/plastic5/ There's a note on the bottom that they understand their idea isn't quite feasible yet. They also need people who can help them out with things like fluid dynamics modelling. The array is designed to be made of manta-ray shaped platforms, with ocean currents pushing the plastic debris into the collector (floating on the surface, since bits of plastic float to the top). Documentaries have shown that due to waves and currents most of the plastic doesn't float on the surface. Also, plastic can break up into very small pieces over time. This video from Vice shows the resulting gunk: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D41rO7mL6zM&t=1091 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D41rO7mL6zM&t=1091
