It's a failed project. The key component here is a water pump, it's very loud and it uses a lot of power. They hide it in their promotional videos. You'll notice that they use voice-overs or music when showing how the bin works.
Edit: also, their website doesn't list any technical specs at all. Literally all they say is that it uses an electric pump, either 110, 240 or 24 volts. No details about water flow, power consumption, noise, maintenance, estimated lifetime of the pump. It's just stock photos and inspirational stuff about saving the world and all that.
Their Indiegogo campaign said that deliveries will start in 2016, yet the product is still not finished. Estimated retail price is $3,800. Very similar products can be bought for a $100.
Edit2: Here is their Indiegogo campaign from 2016. They exceeded their goal by a significant margin, yet they never shipped any bins. https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/cleaning-the-oceans-one-marina-at-a-time#/

Probably the single best purchase I’ve ever made in my entire life. Total game changer. I’d easily pay ten times the amount.
