Cleaning the toilet is a task that doesn't interest people. Many, however, pray
|
37 |
+
for technology that can save them from the unpleasant mission. Apparently, those
|
38 |
+
prayers were answered: a group of Chinese scientists developed the concept of a
|
39 |
+
self-cleaning toilet and managed to make it a reality. Thanks to 3D printing,
|
40 |
+
researchers at Huazhong University of Science and Technology have managed to
|
41 |
+
revolutionize the unpleasant household chore. The self-cleaning toilet, known
|
42 |
+
as “ARSFT”, an acronym for “abrasion-resistant super slippery toilet flush” — the
|
43 |
+
technology that allows automatic cleaning — emerged from a complex combination
|
44 |
+
of plastic and grains of sand that repel water. In plain English, the technology
|
45 |
+
ensures that no substance sticks to the surface. Therefore, in addition to being
|
46 |
+
a salvation for many, this can be a more sustainable alternative to conventional
|
47 |
+
toilets. The website New Scientist interviewed one of the project's scientists,
|
48 |
+
Yike Li, who created the self-cleaning toilet. According to Li, the Chinese used,
|
49 |
+
in addition to the combination of plastic and grains of sand, a laser to bring the
|
50 |
+
particles together, thus creating the 3D printed self-cleaning toilet. After printing,
|
51 |
+
the researchers used silicon oil to lubricate the surface of the toilet, managing
|
52 |
+
to penetrate it due to the structure of the model. This generated the toilet's
|
53 |
+
self-cleaning capacity, with the following materials leaving no marks after
|
54 |
+
flushing: Milk; Yogurt; Honey; Muddy water; Starch gel mixed with porridge.
|
55 |
+
Chinese scientists also tested the self-cleaning toilet with synthetic feces,
|
56 |
+
using a mixture of miso, yeast, peanut oil and water, managing to imitate human
|
57 |
+
excrement. Although it may be strange that scientists work to create toilet technologies,
|
58 |
+
several seemingly “unnecessary” innovations can have a major global impact.
|
59 |
+
The self-cleaning toilet created by Chinese researchers can considerably reduce water waste.
|
60 |
+
According to Chinese scientists, the self-cleaning toilet can withstand a thousand scraping
|
61 |
+
cycles thanks to its super slippery capacity. Therefore, the self-cleaning toilet has
|
62 |
+
a new flushing method that minimizes water consumption – and waste. The Daily Mail
|
63 |
+
points out that, since its invention in the 18th century, although the toilet has
|
64 |
+
increased hygiene, a significant amount of water is required due to the adhesion
|
65 |
+
between the surface of the toilet and human feces and urine. Worldwide, toilet
|
66 |
+
flushes correspond to 141 billion liters of water daily. Therefore, in addition
|
67 |
+
to saving a valuable resource for humanity, the self-cleaning toilet also has another
|
68 |
+
environmental benefit. In places such as public and chemical bathrooms, especially
|
69 |
+
where there is no connection to the sanitation system, the self-cleaning toilet
|
70 |
+
appears as an ideal solution.
