Cheng Shiu University introduces smart recycling machines, taking waste reduction efforts to the next level!
Cheng Shiu University Takes a Step Forward in Sustainable Development with Smart Recycling Machines!
In April 2025, Cheng Shiu University set up a Smart Resource Recycling Demonstration Station next to the campus security center in the Early Childhood Education Building, officially launching the smart recycling machines for recyclable PET bottles, aluminum cans, and batteries. This adds another green initiative to the university’s sustainability efforts!
Smart Recycling x Convenient Action: Enhancing Recycling Experience with Technology
This AI-powered smart resource recycling machine integrates the campus card system and a mobile app. Students and staff can easily scan a QR code to receive cashbacks or accumulate points, encouraging higher participation in recycling.
From sorting and identifying to recording and rewarding, the integrated user interface is not only convenient but also provides real-time feedback, making sustainability actions more effective and rewarding.
Recycling PET Bottles and Aluminum Cans: Starting with Sorting
Don’t underestimate the power of that bottle in your hand! Before placing it in the recycling machine, remember these three steps:
-
Clean It: Make sure there is no liquid left inside the bottle to ensure better recycling quality.
-
Recycle Promptly: Avoid exposure to the sun or leaving bottles stacked for too long to prevent material degradation.
-
Sort Correctly: Place the bottles in the designated slot to help the system process them properly.
These simple steps are crucial in turning "waste into resources."
Battery Recycling: Protecting the Land and Water Sources
Batteries contain heavy metals like lead and mercury, which can severely harm the ecosystem if not disposed of properly. The smart recycling machine has a dedicated slot for batteries, ensuring they are correctly sorted and directed for safe disposal and reuse, reducing environmental impact.
Faculty and Students Respond: Cultivating a Campus Culture of Sustainability
In the early days of operation, Cheng Shiu University students eagerly embraced the initiative, with many sharing feedback like: "Recycling feels more interesting and rewarding!"
This upgrade is not just about hardware—it’s a symbol of the university’s deeper commitment to a sustainable culture on campus.
