    Abstract: A fluid leak containment system for containing leaks of fluids, such as, but not limited to fossil fuels, during an underwater extraction process is disclosed. The fluid leak containment system may be configured to capture hydrates from the sea floor. The fluid leak containment system may be formed from a generally extendible, conically shaped containment structure including a plurality of decreasingly sized housing sections extending from an inlet to a smaller sized outlet. The housing sections may be formed from flexible materials that enable easy storage and rapid deployment. The outlet directs fossil fuels into a fluid containment device, such as, but not limited to, a vessel. The extendible containment housing may include an anchoring base configured to retain an inlet of the housing section at a bottom of a water body at a leak site.

    Abstract: A method, apparatus, and system are provided, utilize a floating treatment wetland designed specifically for the sequestration of microplastic debris (i.e., plastic particles under 5 nm) from active water systems. This process can be achieved through the careful selection of a root structure combined with the development of a robust housing for the wetland pad, so that it may operate effectively in fast current conditions. Disclosed is a hydrodynamic fiberglass frame to encase and stabilize the floating treatment wetland during storm surges. The design of this frame may be adapted to encourage optimal flow to the underside of the wetland, in order to maximize the amount of water exposed to the wetland's biofilm filter.

    Abstract: A containment unit for containing fluid leaks in an ambient liquid. The containment unit comprises a weighted base for being disposed around the fluid leak. The weighted base is positioned on top of one or more suction piles. Further, the containment unit comprises a curtain unit coupled to the weighted base. The curtain unit comprises a helical spring and facilitates containing the fluid leak in the ambient fluid. The containment unit further comprises a flotation unit coupled to the curtain unit. The containment unit also comprises thrust roller bearings to allow rotation of the curtain unit with respect to the weighted base and the flotation unit. The invention further discloses a containment system comprising multiple containment units as needed depending on the depth of ambient liquid and as a surface flotation unit comprising pumps, sensors and skimming units to allow for the fluid leaked to be transferred to a vessel.
