Application Research of Waterborne Plastic Waste Recycling Device Based on Green Design Principles
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers designed a waterborne plastic waste recycling device guided by green design principles, incorporating environmental recognition, green product, and interactive systems to intercept plastic debris in inland waterways before it reaches the ocean. The device follows the '3R' principle (reduce, reuse, recycle) and integrates modular and environmental awareness design strategies to address inland plastic pollution at its source.
In light of the severe plastic pollution in water bodies, this paper designs a plastic waste recycling device based on the “green design principles” to address the issue of plastic debris in inland waterways. This approach aims to tackle the problem of plastic waste entering the oceans at its source. The overall structure of the device incorporates an environmental recognition system, a green product system, and an interactive system. These systems encompass regional environmental awareness, integrated product design awareness, modularization awareness, and more to adhere to the “3R” principles of green design, effectively addressing the problem of plastic pollution in water bodies.
