【作品介紹 Description】

River Cleaner自動化河川垃圾回收站，利用水流自然的规律和能量，做到將河川垃圾自然聚集，推動和自動回收的效果。以另一種循環經濟的模式，達到低耗能處理環境議題的設計。 根據河流彎道地形，利用水流自然的慣性聚集並收集河川漂浮垃圾。在這些天然的垃圾匯集點，架設River Cleaner垃圾回收站，随着河川的水流推动螺旋扇葉，藉此帶動螺旋輸送桿，將水中塑膠垃圾運送至垃圾槽再由專人統一處理。 一切動力以自然力量驅動，達成低耗能淨化環境的功效。

 

River Cleaner, an automated river recycling station utilizes the natural laws and energy of the water flow to achieve accumulation and automatic recycling of floating river waste. The design of cycle economy and cradle to cradle model using the way of low-energy consumption deal with environmental issues is achieved. River Cleaner is a floating waste collector using natural water current to gather, convey and collect without consuming additional energy. The river current will push the turbine blade and drive the screw conveyor to pick up floating waste within the water and make the environment much more cleaner. Every part of the design is driven by the force of nature to achieve low energy cost and to purify the environment.
