In this lecture, Philip Ehrhorn, Co-founder and Chief Technology Officer of The Great Bubble Barrier, explores the development and real-world piloting of the Bubble Barrier technology. Drawing on his expertise in Naval Architecture, Ocean Engineering, and Aquatic Ecosystem Analysis, Philip explains how his
experience led him to consider a bubble curtain as an effective method to capture plastic pollution in waterways and tackle one of the most stubborn environmental challenges of our time. Students will gain insight into system design, optimization for local conditions, and the real-world challenges of
deploying innovative environmental technology at scale.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
