Product description
everwave’s flagship solution employs a river-first approach to combat plastic pollution. It begins with AI-enabled drones that scan riverbanks and waterways to identify waste hotspots. Targeted cleanup is then executed via purpose-built floating boats, intelligent barriers, and manual labor to capture debris before it reaches the ocean. Collected waste is immediately processed through nearby mobile sorting containers or at zero-waste centers—such as those in Cambodia and Thailand—and sorted locally for recycling or thermochemical recovery. Every kilogram of debris corresponds to a Plastic Credit, enabling companies and individuals to purchase credits (1 € per 1 kg) to offset their plastic footprint. Certified tracking software transparently records each Plastic Credit from collection to certification. Clients receive detailed waste-collection certificates and media-ready content to boost sustainability communication. Surplus recyclable materials are reintroduced into circular economies, while non-recyclables undergo clean thermal processing. The solution fosters long-term impact by building regional infrastructure, generating jobs, raising environmental awareness, and involving local authorities. Through this data-driven, scalable methodology, everwave transforms river cleanups into measurable, traceable, and accountable environmental investments—contributing to clean waterways, resilient waste systems, and greener communities.
