18 Advantages & Problems solved Eliminates the most common risks of the conventional technologies 1. Escape from the main energy of the waves in the deeper layers 2. Far away from Extreme Sea weather temperature conditions in the surface layers 3. Far away from Surface icing and collisions 4. Does not require spat materials times longer life and resource consummation 6. No consumables 7. Suit the tightening requirements for recycling, unlike the used synthetic ropes, that ORTO substitutes with solid materials 8. Surface pollution coming with the shore fresh waters 9. Invulnerable to Tides 10. Invulnerable to UV-ray 11. Invulnerable to random floating objects or marine litters 12. Removes the danger from Domino effect, when one broken Long line, destroys the others from the field Providing New offshore production areas 13. Do not endanger for Sea faring 14. Do not conflict with tourism 15. Releases the bays for other activities Offers integrated aquaculture production 16. Mussels Shrimps Sea snails Fish Environmental Benefits 17. Boosts biodiversity 18. Revives the ecosystems ( Dead Zones ) 19. Absorbs 100% more water layers 20. Provides 80 time more attaching area, 21. than the occupied bottom 22. Does not emit any micro-plastics 23. Natural Fish hub % recyclable plastic material kg reused plastic /per each farm/ Additional Benefits 26. Allows diving tourism 27. Allows fishing tourism 28. Provides coastal erosion defense
