Pollution Management

Ecobarrier Bubble Curtains

An effective solution to control marine pollution caused by noise, silt and debris.

The Ecobarrier Bubble Curtain is a submerged high pressure pipe that runs along the seabed. Compressed air is pumped through the Bubble Tubing®, designed by Canadianpond.ca, which creates a wall of bubbles rising to the surface. The bubbles are permeable to water, however, act as a barrier that is effective in:

1) Controlling the movement of floating and subsurface debris, such as plastic, rubbish, silt and sediment; 2) Attenuating shock wave impact from blasting or pile driving to protect marine life; 3) Diverting jellyfish and other marine life from intake pipes.
