Cov kav dej loj loj clogging thiab clogging ntawm cov ntaub ntub dej raug nqi dej phwj nyob rau sab qab teb ntawm Queensland kwv yees li US $ 1 lab txhua xyoo.
Los ntawm nruab nrab xyoo 2022, cov ntaub so ntub dej, cov ntaub so ntswg, tampons thiab txawm tias miv litter tuaj yeem nqa tau ntawv pov thawj "ntxuav" cim qhia rau cov neeg siv khoom paub tias cov khoom ua tau raws li cov qauv hauv tebchaws.
Colin Hester, tus thawj coj ntawm ib puag ncig kev daws teeb meem ntawm Urban Utilities, tau hais tias txawm hais tias muaj ntau yam khoom tau sau tias "flushable", qhov no tsis tau txhais hais tias lawv yuav tsum yaug mus rau hauv chav dej.
"Peb cuam tshuam txog 4,000 qhov thaiv hauv cov kav dej phwj tuaj txhua xyoo, thiab peb siv nyiaj ntxiv $ 1 lab hauv kev saib xyuas txhua xyoo," Mr. Hester hais.
Nws hais tias tsis muaj ib yam dab tsi txwv cov khoom los ntawm kev tshaj tawm tias nws yog flushable vim tsis muaj kev pom zoo ntawm tus qauv.
Nws tau hais tias: "Tam sim no, tsis muaj kev pom zoo hauv tebchaws ntawm cov tuam txhab, cov khw muag khoom thiab cov tuam txhab siv hluav taws xob ntawm qhov sib npaug rau flushability."
"Nrog qhov tshwm sim ntawm cov qauv flushability, qhov xwm txheej no tau hloov pauv, thiab nws yog txoj haujlwm pom zoo ntawm ob tog."
Mr. Hester tau hais tias qhov sib txawv ntawm cov ntaub so ntub dej thiab cov ntaub so ntswg thiab cov ntaub so ntswg yog tias lawv cov khoom feem ntau nyuaj thiab ruaj khov dua.
Nws tau hais tias "Lub zog no tau ua tiav los ntawm kev ntxiv cov nplaum lossis txheej txheej nyuaj dua li daim ntawv tso quav tso quav rau cov khoom siv," nws hais.
Raws li Lub Nroog Utilities, 120 tons ntawm cov ntaub so ntub dej (sib npaug rau qhov hnyav ntawm 34 hippos) raug tshem tawm ntawm lub network txhua xyoo.
Feem ntau, cov ntaub so ntub dej tuaj yeem ua rau txhaws lossis "cellulite" - ntau cov roj condensed, roj, thiab cov khoom xws li cov ntaub so ntswg thiab cov ntaub so ntub ua ke.
Lub roob muaj roj loj tshaj plaws uas tau sau tseg hauv Lub Nroog Utilities tau raug tshem tawm ntawm Bowen Hills xyoo 2019. Nws yog 7.5 meters ntev thiab ib nrab ib 'meter' dav.
Yawg Hyster tau hais tias cov chaw tsim khoom kev qhuab qhia nws tus kheej tso cai rau qee yam khoom lag luam tshaj tawm tias "flushable" thaum lawv tsis tuaj yeem decomposed zoo hauv lub cev.
"Qee cov ntaub so muaj cov yas, thiab txawm tias cov ntaub so decompose, cov yas tuaj yeem nkag mus rau biosolids lossis nkag mus rau cov dej tau txais," nws hais.
Tus cev lus hauv nroog Anna Hartley tau hais tias tsab cai lij choj hauv tebchaws tam sim no nyob rau theem kev sib tham rau pej xeem yog "kev hloov pauv kev ua si" hauv "kev ua tsov rog kim heev tiv thaiv cov ntaub ntub dej."
"Tus qauv flushability tsis tsuas yog siv rau cov ntaub so ntub dej xwb; Nws kuj tseem siv tau rau ntau yam khoom siv pov tseg, suav nrog cov ntaub so ntswg, menyuam cov ntaub so ntswg thiab txawm tias miv khib nyiab, "Ms Hartley tau hais.
"Qhov no yuav ua rau cov neeg siv khoom ntseeg siab tias thaum lawv pom cov ntawv tshiab 'washable' daim ntawv lo ntawm cov khoom, cov khoom tau dhau cov qauv kev sim nruj, ua tau raws li tus qauv tshiab hauv lub tebchaws, thiab yuav tsis ua rau peb cov kav dej phwj tuaj puas.
Ms. Hartley tau hais tias txawm hais tias tus qauv tab tom tsim, nws tseem ceeb heev rau cov neeg siv khoom kom nco ntsoov yaug tsuas yog "peb Ps-pee, poop thiab ntawv."
"Tam sim no cov neeg siv khoom tau khaws cia hauv qhov tsaus ntuj yam tsis muaj cov qauv hauv tebchaws, uas txhais tau tias cov neeg yuav khoom yuav tuaj yeem xaiv tau yooj yim dua thiab ua qhov zoo," nws hais.
Mr. Hester tau hais tias thaum tsim cov qauv, cov kws tshawb fawb tau khiav ntau yam khoom sib txawv uas tuaj yeem tso dej rau hauv chav dej los ntawm kev sim cov kav dej ntev ntev ntawm Lub Koom Haum Innovation Center ntawm Baggage Point Wastewater Treatment Plant.
Peb muab cov nplooj ntawv tsim ua ntej rau cov neeg tuaj saib hauv zos hauv txhua lub xeev thiab thaj chaw. Kawm paub xaiv kom tau txais xov xwm hauv Queensland ntxiv.
Txhawm rau kom cov neeg tsim khoom sim, qhov ntsuas dej phwj tuaj yeem raug ntsuas thiab ua qauv raws li cov khoom siv kho tshuab uas txav tau lub thawv "swaying" uas muaj dej rov qab los saib seb cov khoom puas tawg.
Mr. Hester tau hais tias kev txhim kho cov qauv hauv tebchaws yog qhov nyuaj vim nws txhais tau tias kev koom tes ntawm cov tuam txhab tsim khoom, cov tuam txhab hluav taws xob thiab Australian Bureau of Standards.
Nws tau hais tias: "Qhov no yog thawj zaug hauv ntiaj teb uas cov tuam txhab hluav taws xob thiab cov tuam txhab tsim khoom tau ua haujlwm ua ke los txiav txim siab qhov tseeb thiab kev lees txais kev lees paub dhau los / tsis ua tiav, qhia meej tias qhov twg yuav tsum tau thiab yuav tsum tsis txhob yaug."
