Abstract

The present invention relates to an apparatus for the disposal and melting of snow and ice, particularly collected from urban areas. The apparatus comprises a chute (101) with an upper open end (102) and a lower end (103), configured to receive snow and ice at the upper end and direct them downward. Carrying devices, such as buoyancy elements (104) or a rack attached to a quay, maintain the upper end above the surface of a body of water. A vessel (111) attached at the lower end collects solids settling from the meltwater as the snow and ice melt. The device utilizes the natural heat from seawater or another large body of water to melt the snow, reducing the need for additional energy input. It efficiently manages pollutants by allowing solids to settle and be removed, thus reducing environmental impact. Designed to be low-cost and easy to handle, the apparatus can be stowed away during off-season periods.
