The transformation of the protective mask into the scrap material ‘Plaxtil’, a combination of plastic and textile. Photo: africanews.com Made from polypropylene, synthetic fibers and metal, used masks are often thrown in the trash, then buried or burned. Some people even throw masks on the streets, rivers and oceans, harming the natural environment. According to the American Chemical Society, about 129 billion disposable masks are used every month around the world. So researchers and companies are looking for ways to recycle masks, although not currently. is a profitable business. Researchers in Australia are thinking about recycling single-use masks into sugar-making materials. In the US, this medical protective equipment is recycled into benches. In Korea, there are already seats made from disposable masks. And in France, they’re recycled into car mats. Researchers at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (Australia) are experimenting with solutions after witnessing the scene of masks being littered on the street. Once disinfected and chopped, the masks can be mixed with treated construction rubble to create a flexible and strong material for road construction. Researchers are looking into their use in construction cement. According to them, it takes three million masks to create 1 km of road. In France, recycling company Tri-o et Greenwished has collected masks from about 30 special locations, including Paris hospitals, TF1 television and Saint-Gobain building materials group, to put them in hospitals. special case for 250 euros ($300)/month. At their recycling plant, the masks are shredded, disinfected, and polypropylene extracted, which is converted into the material used to make floor mats or other plastic car parts. Tri-o et Greenwished has recycled a ton of masks and hopes to process 20 tons by the end of the year. Witnessing the increasing waste caused by disposable masks during the COVID-19 pandemic, interior design student Kim Ha-neul of Kaywon University of Art and Design in Uiwang city, south of Seoul (Korea) Quoc) recycled used masks into stools. To reduce the risk of COVID-19 infection, Kim Ha-neul kept these masks in storage for at least 4 days, then removed the rubber bands and metal on the masks. Next, he put the mask into the mold, used a heat spray gun at a temperature of over 300 degrees Celsius to let the mask melt. This is just the beginning of Kim Ha-neul’s success. He is planning to create more furniture from recycled masks, such as chairs, tables and some lamps. However, the above numbers are just “a drop” in the “ocean” of masks being discharged every day globally. About 40,000 tons of masks were packed in France last year without being recycled. This is because making a profit from recycling used masks is still a challenge.

“ The solutions contained in the bottles of Hazoku brand hand sanitizer located in the T1 passenger terminal area are Disinfectant (Hipochloro Acid bactericidal solution) “, a representative of Noi Bai International Airport said.

People do not use plastic bottles to pack beer for the following reasons: Plastic is a more porous material than glass, so it makes beer easier to “pale” when stored in plastic bottles instead of glass bottles because of the gas in the drink. will be more susceptible to evaporation. Glass has almost no effect on taste because of its chemical inertness. In contrast, plastic contains a lot of chemicals that can dissolve into beer and affect the taste, even the quality of the drink. Like glass, aluminum is a completely waterproof material, making it ideal for beer storage as well. But unlike plastic, the inside of aluminum cans is coated with a special polymer that prevents aluminum from leaking into the drink, so they are much safer. In addition, unlike the two materials above, aluminum completely blocks light, helping drinks in aluminum cans be better preserved than other types of bottles. Another problem with plastic bottles is that they cannot withstand the sterilization process that most beers go through. After being brewed and bottled, beer will usually have to be put through a machine that sprays boiling water to kill any bacteria that are still alive after the fermentation process. This process is both to ensure food safety and to increase the shelf life of beer. And while glass bottles or aluminum cans can easily endure the process, plastic cannot. That means either we have to skip the sterilization process, or we have to choose a more durable plastic, which means higher costs. For the above reasons, it can be seen that glass bottles and aluminum cans will still dominate the beer industry worldwide. Transparent beer bottles left in the sun often cause beer taste changes such as musty odors and odors, because UV rays from sunlight easily pass through the beer bottle shell to react with the sulfur molecules present in the beer. , creating a strange taste and difficult to drink like broken beer for a long time. Therefore, to overcome that situation, manufacturers have created beer bottles in brown and green colors, because these two colors prevent the best absorption of UV rays.

Dressed in blue protective gear and wearing a visor under a bright yellow turban, Jitender Singh Shunty sprayed disinfectant on bodies at the Seemapuri crematorium in northeastern Delhi. He had to act fast because bodies were delivered faster than cremation. The families and friends of those who have died, and those who are trying to find hospital beds and oxygen tanks to save their loved ones, are losing patience. “We are doing all we can to help families have a decent funeral for their loved ones,” he said as he rushed into another ambulance that had just arrived with two bodies. Since the beginning of April, when India suffered a second wave of the outbreak, Jitender Singh Shunty and his 20 volunteers were shocked by the large number of bodies brought in. “Last year we cremated 967 bodies, this month alone we cremated 670 bodies,” he said. Worldometers chart of the high number of infections in India as of May 10. About 20km from Seemapuri, New Delhi, dozens of people were gathering outside Waseem’s gas station. They all have the same question: When will the new oxygen tanks arrive? Waseem is committed to updating information on WhatsApp as soon as it is available. “People are dying from lack of oxygen so I thought I had to do something to help them,” Waseem said. “Someone told me that I would get sick if I kept going out and meeting so many people with Covid-19 relatives. I’m really scared, but if I don’t help them, I’ll be haunted for life.” Waseem added. Not alone As India is trying to find a way to deal with the pandemic, young men and women from all over the country do not hesitate to volunteer to contribute to the fight. They set up apps to solicit support and help, distribute key supplies, and use social media to direct resources to those in need. With two-thirds of its 1.3 billion population under the age of 35, India is a country dominated by young people, but young people have never been called upon to shoulder such enormous responsibilities. Photo: Times of India Swadha Prasad is working with dozens of volunteers – all between the ages of 14 and 19 – as part of the youth-led UNCUT organization, building an online database to gather information. about available medical resources across the country. This is 24/7, with teens constantly working over the phone to verify supplies, update information in real time, and take calls from patient relatives. “Some of us work from midnight to morning, because the calls don’t stop at 3 a.m.,” CNA quoted Prasad, a 17-year-old schoolgirl who worked 14 hours a day from noon the day before to 1 a.m. next morning. It was a long and tiring shift, but this Mumbai resident was still very enthusiastic. “If I could help save a life, I would never say No.” And many Covid-19 victims have been saved. Prasad cites an example where her team was able to deliver oxygen in the middle of the night, saving the life of a young patient desperately waiting for help. “It’s not just about providing resources… sometimes people want to know they’re not alone,” she said. The graph of Worldometers shows the correlation between the number of new infections (yellow) and the number of new recoveries (blue) in India as of April 30. Technology limitations However, in many small Indian towns and villages, technological limitations exacerbate the situation. Urgent requests for resources and spare hospital beds have spurred a large number of Twitter users. 25-year-old software engineer Umang Galaiya solved this problem by writing an app that makes it easy for users to find what they need, and directs their search to verified resources. But even so, his application cannot help many people living outside of big cities because the number of internet users is very small. “If I look for resources in Jamnagar, I get nothing on Twitter,” reflected the young man. And according to this male engineer, the pandemic cannot be controlled without the government. Simple measures still save many lives. For example, authorities could create an online bed registry, which updates automatically in real time, to save distressed patients from running back and forth knocking on the door of each treatment facility. According to the update of statistics page Worldometers, as of noon on May 12, India has recorded more than 23.3 million people infected with Covid-19 and about 254,200 deaths.
