Paper, “Jellyfish Barge” Provides Sustainable Source of Food and Water
Dubbed the Jellyfish Barge for its shape and translucency, this floating greenhouse is capable of growing its own food hydroponically and producing up to 150 liters of fresh drinking water per day. Even more beneficial is its low-cost, easy-to-assemble design that can be implemented in a variety of locations.
The Jellyfish Barge was conceived as a 70 square meter octagon, floating atop recycled plastic drums. These drums are attached directly to the wooden decking above, and are held steady by reticular wooden beams along the radii of the octagon.
