The invention relates to methods and systems for collecting environmental pollutants from open water bodies, in particular the concentration of a biomass of a cyanobacteria and water mixture. The filtration and concentration of the biomass of the cyanobacteria and water mixture is carried out using a plankton net (3). The proposed concentration method and device allows to obtain dense biomass in a single continuous process. The biomass of the cyanobacteria and water mixture distributed on the plankton net (3) is divided into shorter parts of the biomass by partitions (8) of a biomass pusher which is pushed back and forth within the plankton net (3) until the biomass loses water through the plankton net (3) and reaches the desired concentration. The biomass pusher then pushes off the biomass from the plankton net (3) in repeated movement cycles until all biomass parts between the partitions (8) have successively reached the outlet end of the plankton net (3) and are pushed away from it.
