A group of high school students in the Central Anatolian province of Konya has developed an electrical and solar-powered compost machine.
The machines developed by high school students in Konya to raise awareness about “zero waste” and prevent environmental pollution started to be used in schools throughout the country.
The electrical and solar-powered compost machines mix materials such as vegetables, fruit peels, egg shells, paper cups, tree leaves, wood shavings and inkless paper pieces and turn them into productive soil.
In addition, the waste collection and sorting machines named “pak-matik” installed in the school load a contour on the students’ smart cards that they can use in the canteen.
The students are currently working on designing a solar-powered garbage can.
