New Environmental Protection Material: Food Waste Dyeing To Protect Environment

? ?? Kitchen waste is used as dye to give waste new life with creativity. In fact, the garbage problem has become a serious issue facing the whole world. Japan, as a model in this respect, has 518 articles in the garbage classification manual alone. It took a generation of people's efforts to achieve the present effect.

Now more and more people are aware of the seriousness of the problem, and are actively using their own way to contribute.

Kitchen waste has become "the most beautiful color in the world".

Can you imagine that these fabrics are made of leftover leaf and fruit skin?

Hong Kong produces 10450 tons of garbage every day, and one third of the food is discarded.

Kitchen waste is not only leftover food such as vegetable scraps and bones, but also many cafeterias. In order to ensure adequate supply of food materials, we often eat half and throw half away.

In the supermarket, even the ugly vegetables have to be thrown away, causing a lot of waste.

Turning kitchen waste into dye is something that no one has ever done. The first step is to collect materials, come back for cleaning, sorting and cold soaking. This step takes about 14-28 days before the color can be soaked.

The second step is to extract the color. The third step is to detect the concentration. If it reaches the standard, it can be directly put into the bottle for standby. If it fails, it needs to color slowly.

This is also the most difficult step, hundreds of tests may only get an ideal effect.

The red of red cabbage head, orange of orange peel, blue of purple broccoli, yellow of ginger and curry, water chestnut and mud can be made into gray.

These kitchen scraps, which could only enter the garbage dump, turned into dyes and dyed the cloth into various fresh colors. For example, purple cauliflower can be cooked in 15 colors, and orange peel can be in 11 colors.

As for the dyed fabric, the most traditional tie dye is like a surprise every time you open the tie dyed fabric, because you will get a unique pattern.

Food waste is a topic of concern to everyone, making canvas bags, hats, pillows, T-shirts and other peripheral products.

Pay attention to the environment and reduce the generation of garbage. At present, 400 million tons of domestic waste will be produced in China every year, and the amount is still growing at a rate of about 8% per year.

For a long time, landfill has been the main way to treat municipal waste in China, but this is not a long-term solution. Burning instead of landfill may be one of the best ways to solve the problem. We should reduce the pollution caused by waste incineration.

In this way, because it needs the cooperation of the whole society. But it is still possible to classify garbage and reduce waste as a part of life.

To protect the environment is to protect human beings themselves and our living space.
