Our project for a better treatment of waste in

Agde

Sort out,Treat and Recycle

In Agde, the number of inhabitants is

multiplied by ten between winter and summer. There are 26 000 inhabitants in winter but 200 000 inhabitants in summer. In summer there is also an increase of the amount of waste. In fact, we reckon 41.6 tons of waste per day during winter time but in summer we reckon 320 tons of waste per day!!! We have therefore chosen to ask the following question: How can we improve the treatment of refuse in the town of Agde?

Agde

Solutions•We thought about replacing trash-drop-points by automatic-waste-collectors to reduce pollution and traffic• To move wastes we will use a Venturi aspiration system and create a model•In the waste treatment industry we will associate the workers’ profitability with a logic of sustainable development

Where are the Trash Collectors located ?

140 in Agde

110 inGrau-d'Agde

90 in Cap d'Agde

2) The electronic diagram

Explication : This is the electronic diagram in which

the push button represents the captors of the Trash Collector, there is a sensor for the level of waste and also a sensor for the weight of waste which command the engagement of the motor which opens the trapdoors.

III. The Pipes

•The pipes allow to move waste to the industry. Every Waste Collecor has a pipe which moves the waste to the industry. To move the waste we want to use the Venturi aspiration system because this system uses green energy and the principal point of the plan is the sustainable development.

III. The Industry

This is the electronic diagram of the engagement of the conveyor belt which also triggers an alarm for the employee which marks the beginning of work.

Conclusion

So we have chosen this project because there is an aspect of sustainable development and the pursuit of the project requires several strategies. Thus, a lot of learning is involved.
