Ocean water is invaded by algae, which are not only irritating but turn dangerous a swell while navigating. Here is a new way to clean the ocean water from it. Discovered by Marine researchers in Hawaii, it is an underwater vacuum that sucks the algae up from the water.
A 4-inch modified gold dredger, it is named Super Sucker. It runs on bio-diesel. It efficiently collected alien algae at Kaneohe Bay in an experimental venture. The miraculous device is reported to have sucked 800 pounds of the plant in an hour! This is real efficiency. If performed manually, it would have required 150 volunteers and 10 divers – it is a great relief for trawlers.
