APPARATUS FOR REMOVING SURFACE POLLUTANTS AND BOTTOM MUCK FROM A BODY OF WATER
An apparatus includes a head with an open mouth at a front end and communicating with an internal throat that extends to an outlet at a rear end of the head. A flexible hose connects to the outlet leading to a suction pump and holding tank on land or a floating vessel. A water jet drive system for moving the head in a forward direction and for turning while moving in the forward direction and including independently controlled left and right water jets on lower sides or a bottom of the head. Surface pollutants or bottom muck are sucked into the open mouth upon forward movement (i.e., straight, left or right) of the head along a surface or bottom of a body of water. The pollutants/bottom muck are moved through the head by suction and exit the outlet where they are pumped to the holding tank for treatment and disposal.
