Sargassum appears with increasing intensity on our beaches.
A university in Boston in the United States has been working for several years in the country to develop a system for the effective management of sargassum in the sea.
The action seeks to avoid further damage to the beachesand coasts that could be reflected in tourism as published by the educational institution from its Mechanical Engineering department.
The mission is carried out by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT ), Boston university number one in the world in engineering, located in Cambridge, Massachusetts,

In the press release sent to the media it is indicated that the action is carried out with the support from its Latin American headquarters.
The institution announces that through its team and the organization created as a result of the research and development work, SOS Carbon Inc. has developed two technologies that transform the problem of invasions into opportunities for citizens and communities.
The MIT team led by Professor Alexander Slocum, who formed the It is part of the US Department of Energy’s Deepwater Horizon and has extensive experience developing systems that operate in and for the ocean.
For its part, SOS Carbon has been awarded several international and global recognitions.
In 2021, SOS Carbon won the award. the distinction at the National level (Dominican Republic) and of the Top 100 in the Entrepreneurship World Cup.
Recently, the organization was named within the 30 Promises of Business 2022 by Forbes Central America. ;rich.
The systems and technology development work, carried out from MIT, was supported by American and Dominican organizations committed to social and environmental responsibility. Among those highlighted on the website are Xylem Inc. and Banco Popular Dominicano.
SOS Carbon, with both systems developed and already in operation in the country to collect the sargassum in the sea before it reaches the beach, ensures to generate jobs in the affected coastal communities.
The MIT article highlights the solution already patented to reduce greenhouse gas emissions: carbon and methane. It is emphasized that the purpose of this technology is to turn the Caribbean into a exporter of carbon reduction through the purchase, by developed countries and world organizations, thus generating ; Other industries that allow an economic, social, and environmental benefit for the region.
