‘'The recycling symbol has been

around for over 40 years, but

just 14 percent of plastic
packaging is actually collected;
only 2 percent is properly
recycled.”

APPLICATION IN
WASTE RECYCLING
 WHY IS THERE A NEED TO RECYCLE
WASTE?
IF WASTE IS NOT RECYCLED THEN THERE ARE MANY
IMPACTS OF IT. SOME OF THEM ARE:-

• Affects our health

• Affects our socio-economic conditions
• Affects our coastal and marine environment
• Affects our climate

EXISTING METHODS TO RECYCLE WASTE

PLASMA
MR. TRASH WHEEL
GASIFICATION INCINERATION WHEEL BLADES REMOVES
PLASMA CONVERTS ORGANIC SUBSTANCES ARE TRASH. ALSO THE WHEEL
ORGANIC MATTER INTO COMBUSTED AND THE HEAT ROTATES DUE TO RIVER
ENERGY SO OBTAINED IS USED CURRENT WHICH HELPS IN
SYNGAS & THEN HYDROGEN GENERATING ELECTRICITY
AND CARBON MONOXIDE. TO CREATE ELECTRICITY.
 NOW LET’S THINK
SOMETHING OUT OF
THE BOX
 FURTHER ARE THE
INNOVATIVE IDEAS
THAT WE CAN THINK
OF AT SCHOOL LEVEL
WASTE FOOD
FIBER-
WATER
WE ALL KNOW THAT A HUGE AMOUNT OF FOOD
IS WASTED AT THE END OF THE DAY IN
RESTAURANTS.
The best way to utilize
this waste is to extract
fiber from it. Every food
item has certain amount
of fiber & from this fiber,
water can be extracted.
INSTEAD OF DUMPING THE LEFTOVERS DOWN
THE GARBAGE, WE SHOULD SEGREGATE THE
WATER FROM IT. THE REMAINING ORGANIC
WASTE CAN ALSO BE USED TO MAKE MANURE.
Later, this water can be
used to irrigate field. Also
this water can be used to
generate electricity by
allowing this water to fall
from a height and running
turbines.
ALSO, THE WATER SO
OBTAINED CAN BE
USED TO GENERATE
HYDROGEN GAS
WHICH IS A GOOD
FUEL.
HYDROGEN GAS CAN
BE OBTAINED BY THE
ELECTROLYSIS OF
WATER.
DRY-WET WASTE
SERGREGATOR
BEING TECHNOLOGICALLY
BIN OPENING
ADVANCED STUDENTS, WE CAN
CREATE WET AND DRY WASTE SENSOR
SEPARATOR WITH THE HELP OF
A SENSOR AND A NORMAL BIN.
THIS WILL HELP TO SEGREGATE
DRY WASTE FROM THE WET
WASTE WHICH WILL INCREASE
THE EFFICIENCY OF THE PROCESS Dry waste Wet waste
OF RECYCLING.
 ATTRACTING
PEOPLE BY
CREATING E-BINS
 E-BINS CAN BE INSTALLED WITH SUCH
A SYSTEM THAT PROVIDE FREE WI-FI &
POINTS TO EACH PERSON WHO
THROWS GARBAGE IN IT & CERTAIN
POINTS GIVES PRIZES TO AN
INDIVIDUAL. THERE SHOULD BE
MOBILE NUMBER REGISTRATION
FACILITY SO THAT EVEN MORE PEOPLE
RECYCLE GARBAGE. THESE POINTS CAN
ALSO PROVIDE COUPONS FOR MALLS,
FREE HEALTH CHECK UP ETC.
THERE MUST BE SENSORS
INSTALLED IN BINS WHICH
SENDS COMMAND TO
ROBOT MACHINES TO
COLLECT THE WASTE WHEN
THE BIN IS FULL. IN THIS
WAY, THE HUMAN ENERGY
CONSUMPTION WILL BE
REDUCED.
