PART C: NEW CONCEPT
POROSITY
permit movement of fluid and small debris through the structure
ADAPTABILITY
must be functional in a variety of environmental conditions
FILTRATION
separate litter based on size
CAPTURABILITY
must be able to hold litter for extended periods of time
FLEXIBILITY
to prevent blockages must be flexible
BIO-PRECEDENCE
FILTER FEEDING MARINE SPECIES to separate organic matter from water for digestion
OPTION 1
coral filter feeding through voronoi-like pores
OPTION 2
gill filters of filter feeding sharks and fish
MACRO SCALE GILLS
MICRO SCALE GILL FILAMENTS/LAMELLA
POROSITY MULTI DIRECTIONAL POROSITY River water only flows downstream, so initially my design was only porous in one direction. Following further studies of the location and general river systems I discovered that there is also water movement in an adjacent direction. This is called run-off and it is the product of heavy rainfall resulting in water running off the land and into the river system.
POROSITY FOR NATURAL RIVER FLOW
LATERAL POROSITY FOR RUN-OFF
ADAPTABILITY • diagram THE CENTRAL POLES ARE THE ONLY PART OF THE LITTER CAPTURING STRUCTURE, THAT ARE FIXED TO THE GROUND. THE EVENLY SPACED HORIZONTAL SECTIONS ARE IN FACT BUOYANT AND WILL SLIDE UP THE POLES WHEN THE WATER LEVEL IS HIGHER IN MERRI CREEK TO ENSURE THAT THE STRUCTURE PROTRUDES PARTLY ABOVE THE SURFACE
WATER LEVEL DURING HIGH RAINFALL PERIOD AVERAGE WATER LEVEL
FILTRATION PLANKITVOROUS FISH closely spaced gill lamella
3rd STAGE OF LITTER TRAP captures only the smallest pieces of litter and debris
FISH THAT EATS MEDIUM SIZED PREY moderately spaced gill lamella
FISH THAT EATS LARGE PREY sparsely spaced lamella
2nd STAGE OF LITTER TRAP captures medium sized litter
1st STAGE OF LITTER TRAP prevents passing of large pieces of litter
CAPTURABILITY MAN MADELAGOONFORLITTER ACCUMULATION
The curved form directs the rubbish from the centre of the creek to the banks where it can easily be collected by the merri creek volunteers on a regular basis The undulations in the form of the litter trap provide spaces for the litter to be captured as they are unable to pass through the spaces in the horizontal sections

FLEXIBILITY
movement of each horizontal section prevents blockages in the litter trap saving space for more litter to be captured
