Innovation in Plastic Sorting
Introduced in Baguio’s Waste Plastic Pre-treatment Sorting Centre, the high-speed and fully automated plastic-sorting facility enhanced by Near-Infrared (“NIR”) technology can sort up to 1,080 tons of plastic per month, equivalent to 60,000 plastic bottles per hour, compared with our traditional hand sorting method, which could only sort 1,800 plastic bottles (around 36kg) per person per hour. The machine can also help to sort out three types of plastic simultaneously, thus increases the efficiency of sorting out target material. Implemented with the new technology, we can boost our operational efficiency and productivity to cope with growing volume of recyclables.
Utilising 3D Scanning in Transplanting Projects
Innovative techniques such as 3D scanning are being employed to measure the dimensions of trees in transplanting projects, a less common application compared to its use in other industries. This technology can accurately assess the size of tree crowns, branch lengths, and other crucial parameters, facilitating comprehensive analysis. Subsequently, the data obtained through 3D scanning is input into a computer for modelling purposes, we can then evaluate the feasibility of tree transplantation with precision and enhance the overall accuracy of the process.
Innovative Attendance System for Efficient Staff Supervision
The implementation of a new attendance system has introduced two distinct methods, face recognition and Octopus card, with the choice between them dependent on the specific work site. This system has undergone a successful trial in various cleaning contracts, such as wet markets and hospitals. Its advantages include low costs and minimal technical requirements, making it an effective tool for enhancing staff supervision, especially for employees working night shifts or in remote areas. Face recognition helps provide a more reliable proof of employee attendance. This innovative approach not only streamlines attendance tracking but also ensures greater efficiency across diverse work environments.
