Abstract

Aiming at the problems of on-site plastic bottles recycling and the reuse of waste, the automatic recycling system was developed on the basis of ARM. As the main controller, ARM not only controls the mechanical system of the collector to recover and break plastic bottles, but also communicates with and rewards the user by the automatic reward system through the wireless network. The experimental prototype test results show: post treated fragments of plastic bottles are small, which are convenient to transport and take advantage of; the operation of recovery is easy, and the interface of man-machine interaction is friendly which is easy to expand functions.

Highlights

Audiences around the world were impressed by the performing stage of Universiade 2011 which was built with 11 million plastic bottles [1]
This paper uses ARM family embedded controllers, sensors, relays and other electrical components to control the collector mechanical system for crushing the plastic bottles; certain incentives were given to peoples who get back those bottles, and the reward submitted via wireless network to a remote server to be handled
Recycling box developed reduces the environmental pollution caused by plastic bottles, encourags people to recycle plastic bottles, facilitates the transport of waste plastic bottles and play an active role for construction of conservation-oriented society[3,4]

Summary

Introduction

Audiences around the world were impressed by the performing stage of Universiade 2011 which was built with 11 million plastic bottles [1]. China is a populous country, where a large amount of bottled water was consumed in the city every day, especially in densely populated areas. Recycling box developed reduces the environmental pollution caused by plastic bottles, encourags people to recycle plastic bottles, facilitates the transport of waste plastic bottles and play an active role for construction of conservation-oriented society[3,4].
