In Ziyuangang Community, Sanyuanli Street, Baiyun District, residents carry all kinds of waste downstairs to "feed the little yellow dog" every day recently. It turns out that this is the "Little Yellow Dog" intelligent garbage sorting and recycling device introduced by Ziyuangang Community. Residents "feed" waste paper, old clothes, plastic bottles and other discarded and reusable garbage according to the instructions. After automatic pricing, they can receive the corresponding environmental protection money refund on their mobile phones.

The fresh garbage recycling "smart dog" has greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of residents to sort garbage. "Since the community has this smart dog, going downstairs to sort and put out garbage has become an interesting thing." Aunt Wang, a resident, told reporters with a smile.

Recently, the reporter came to the 11th building of Ziyuangang Community and saw that this smart dog that can "eat garbage" and "spit out money" is a garbage recycling device composed of 3 different garbage recycling bins. The reporter saw that there is a touch screen on the trash can, and the types of recycled garbage are also different. As long as residents put waste paper, old clothes, plastic bottles and other discarded and reusable garbage into it, the smart trash can will "spit" out money.

Uncle Li, who came to put in waste paper and bottles, took out his mobile phone, opened the APP corresponding to the device and scanned it, and the door of the recycling machine opened automatically. "The door is open, please deliver it", "The bottle is caught, you can throw in the next one."

After using it for a period of time, Uncle Li has become proficient in using the garbage recycling box. "As long as the waste is put into different boxes according to the category prompts, this recycling device will intelligently identify and weigh the garbage put in, and calculate the cash back amount according to the market price of different waste products." Uncle Li said that it only took a few seconds for the mobile phone to vibrate, prompting that his account had received the cash back for the garbage put in. "If the returned cash reaches 10 yuan, you can withdraw it from the APP to your bank card or WeChat wallet."

The reporter saw on the display screen of this recycling equipment that the equipment implements classified pricing for garbage recycling, including 0.2 yuan/kg for textiles, 0.7 yuan/kg for plastics, 0.7 yuan/kg for paper, and 0.05 yuan/piece for beverage bottles.

"In this way, it can also stimulate the enthusiasm of community residents to participate in garbage sorting, which is convenient and practical." The relevant person in charge of the Ziyuangang Community Residents Committee introduced that the community committee introduced intelligent garbage sorting and recycling equipment last month to facilitate residents to put out discarded and reusable garbage, and the residents' participation was very high.

Purpose: Encourage residents to actively participate in garbage sorting

For community neighbors, this "smart dog" is still a new thing, and there will be staff on site from time to time to assist residents in using this equipment. According to the staff of the intelligent garbage sorting and recycling project, after the recycling equipment is full of garbage, professional recyclers will drive a unified recycling vehicle to send the garbage to a regular sorting agency or a renewable resource center to realize the recycling and reuse of domestic garbage.

This new type of garbage sorting and recycling equipment has received support and participation from the community. Ms. Chen, a resident of Ziyuangang Community, told reporters that as soon as this intelligent garbage sorting and recycling machine appeared, she brought her children to experience it. "Next time, I will choose to put garbage here. The "little yellow dog" helps us turn daily garbage into treasure. Not only can we get cash income, but also help us educate children to correctly sort garbage."

The relevant person in charge of Sanyuanli Street said that in the future, the street will continue to encourage communities with conditions to introduce and promote the popularization of this "smart dog", and encourage more residents to actively participate in garbage sorting, which not only maintains the cleanliness and beauty of families and communities, but also popularizes garbage sorting knowledge and environmental protection concepts.

Revealing the secret: it can automatically identify the type of garbage and whether the box is full

The intelligent garbage classification and recycling equipment uses technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things to realize the "Internet of Things + intelligent recycling" of front-end cash back classification and recycling of domestic garbage, mid-end unified transportation, and terminal centralized processing.

This set of intelligent garbage recycling equipment is full of scientific and technological content. The staff said that, for example, the recycling bin equipment has functions such as scanning code throwing, intelligent automatic identification, fund custody system, full bucket warning light, and weight detection.

So, how does the "smart dog" realize the automatic identification of garbage types and full bucket warning functions?

It is understood that the box of this set of intelligent garbage recycling equipment is equipped with an intelligent visual module, which can intelligently identify each garbage delivery. The equipment also has a garbage weighing function. When the amount of intelligent classification recycling bins reaches 80%, it will automatically send a text message to the management staff to remind them to collect it. The collected garbage will be concentrated in the sorting center and then recycled after subdivision.

In addition, what is more valuable is that the dataization of urban garbage classification and processing has been realized. The staff said that the system is equipped with an intelligent cloud platform for the classification of domestic waste, which can implement centralized and unified management of the decentralized working mode of waste classification, collection and transportation. Real-time monitoring of the overall flow of garbage, reporting of various real-time data parameters, big data analysis and export of reports based on the needs of different managers.

Benefits: The cost of urban waste disposal is greatly reduced

"The social value lies in helping citizens gradually develop the habit of garbage classification, turning garbage into treasure, reducing garbage from the source, and playing a role in protecting the environment." The staff said that at present, the social cost of urban waste disposal is 1,530.7 yuan/ton, and the per capita cost is as high as 480.5 yuan/year.

It is understood that the intelligent classification and recycling equipment accepts metals, waste plastics, textiles, paper, glass, hazardous waste and other garbage thrown by residents in a paid manner for recycling and treatment, which can save huge garbage disposal costs. Some residents said, "I heard that the recycling equipment can also recycle waste batteries in the future. This solves a big problem. In the past, we had no place to dispose of our waste batteries."
