Entry Description

VOLCCUM is inspired by the vortex and grows upwards using the Fibonacci sequence as a ratio basis. Vortex forms by the atmosphere or ocean, it's a way to bring things to a point. The concept is based on an air filter standing on the ocean, like a vacuum cleaner filtering volcanic ash and capturing pumice, recycling them for other use. Also makes artificial precipitation by teramobile laser, and rain cleans the ocean's top area and blocks the spread of volcanic ash pollution. By using Sicily's geothermal resources, it can create Geothermal power under the Ocean floor that reduces CO2 Emissions.
