solar powered recycling bin, developed By a lecturer from Ataturk University in The eastern Turkish province of Erzurum, is set To contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and helping with waste management, the designer noted on Tuesday.
in an interview with Anadolu Agency (AA), Zeynep Eren district of Environmental engineering lecturer explained that the container was developed .in the end of a project Entitled “Sustainable Management of Solid Waste”. with Solar Smart Recycling Containers” for a contribution to recycling studies.
Erin mentioned that the container that compresses discarded plastics and transfers them to the “collection room” using Solar energy eliminates energy costs designed in coordination with her students. she also He stated that greenhouse gas emissions from the process decreased by 80%. via the new technology.
And confirmed that recycling one of more critical steps in Sustainability and that nature’s process of self-renewal cannot continue up with the rate of Human consumption and pollution. By recycling, it is possible to protect material And reduce energy needed. Since 2015, it has been world Turned circular economy model. Erin noticed first column of this model The approach is rough protection materials and recycling.
Report titled “Break out of the plastic trap: saving the Mediterranean from plastic pollution” by WWF-Turkey (Global Fund). for Nature), indicated that 95% of lose in The Mediterranean Sea made of plastic.
In addition, the Mediterranean Sea contains 1.25 million microplastic particles smaller than 5 mm per square kilometre.
Plastic recycling is important to increase amount of waste and prevent microplastic pollution in soil and water.
Smart recycling device project Still in patent phaseBut Erin said that the solar-powered smart cycling mode box in All areas are very open reduce Environmental pollution and plastic.
The patent produced by Atatürk University aims to adapt with Plastic pollution and solar energy use. Erin explained that they received industrial donations materials for Sheet metal connections used on product, while plastic straps and hardware were produced with 3D printer. They just bought their own solar energy panel And what is necessary materials for the battery.
Erin also Explain this by compressing waste up Up to 90% containers prevent overflow and are supported by an automatic notification message system Alert when the fund full. This can reduce the number of Trips made by garbage trucks, and thus will help reduce greenhouse gases from use of Fossil fuels.
The lecturer saw that awareness related to recycling needs to be encouraged and initiated with the public. Confirmed that existing patterns should He is abandoned And turned into a circular economy model Because of irreparable soil, air and water pollution.
Erin said the recycling targets for 2023 are 35% of National waste management and action plan. she also He mentioned that there were still some shortcomings with regard to recycling systembut the mandatory deposit returns system At the initiative of the Ministry of Environment, urbanization and climate change help Türkiye achieves its recycling targets.
