wheel cleaning

Mr. Trash Wheel is a trash interceptor that removes trash from the Jones Falls river as it empties into the Inner Harbor in Baltimore, Maryland. It is powered by a water wheel and solar cells, and rakes trash from the harbor onto an onboard conveyor belt which routes it into a dumpster on the vessel. Mr. Trash Wheel was invented by John Kellett in 2008, who launched a pilot vessel at that time. A larger vessel was later developed; it replaced the pilot vessel and was launched in May 2014. The Mr. Trash Wheel vessel is part of the Waterfront Partnership of the City of Baltimore's "Healthy Harbor Initiative".
