The Microplastics Net with two lifting bodies is made for operation at inland waters, coastal areas and the open sea under calm conditions. The maximum speed is rated to 3 knots. Only a small boat is needed to operate it. Due to the very small size and the option to dismantle the lifting bodies it can easily be carried from one sampling spot to the other. Nevertheless the opening area of this net is the same as for the katamaran, 40 x 70 cm.
