Fundamental Experiment about the Environmental Improvement in the Gulf using a Floating Offshore Vertical Axis Wind Turbine

- A Study of the Case using an Archimedes Screw Pump -

Abstract

　In recent years, environmental pollution caused by suspended sludge and milliplastics has become serious in the environmental pollution problem caused by floating garbage in the coast and in the bay. In particular, aquaculture by hypoxia due to eutrophication in the bay is a factor that deteriorates productivity. Therefore, in this study, we proposed a structure of a floating vertical axis wind turbine that can be towed by mooring and ships. We report the results of a basic experiment on the behavior of a floating body and the performance of a helical pump for the purpose of a system that absorbs and processes more.
