21168. Andhra's Scientist Develops Automated Train Toilet Sewerage Disposal Under 'Make In India'
- The automated system is meant to ease maintenance of the oft-criticised system by installing a seven times cheaper alternative to bio-toilets.
- The Ministry of Science & Technology recently stated in an official press release that the technology has been developed by Dr. RV Krishnaiah from Chebrolu Engineering College is an automated system for collection of sewage systems from running trains and segregation of different materials for further processing into usable things. The automated system consists of a septic tank which is placed under the track i.e. train line and the top lid uncovers when a train approaches the septic tank place by using Radia Frequency Identification (RFID) sensor and reader placed at engine and septic tank position respectively.
- The sewerage material in toilet tanks is dropped into the septic tank when they are mutually synchronized. The septic tank cover gets closed only after the train deviates from the spot. The newly-introduced sewerage disposal system in Indian Railways will process the plastic and cloth materials separately in consideration of the environment for waste check measures.
