Izizathu zokukhetha izikopo ezinokugcwaliswa ngaphandle kokusebenzisa kuzo izinkomshado zezindlu

Ukusebenziseka Okuhle Nokuphatheka Okuhle Ngokungafani Nokweziphuzo Ezinoshukela Zanamuhla

Amacupu ayasuswa ukuhlinzeka ngokunethezeka okudingekayo ukuze kube lula ukuphila okusheshayo kwanamuhlaukunciphisa isikhathi sokuhlanza nokuvumela ukusetshenziswa ngokushesha kweziphuzo. Ukwakhiwa kwazo okulula kakhulunoma ngabe kuyiphepha, ipulasitiki, noma ezinye izindlela ezintsha zokubola kwezinto eziphilayokuvumela ukuthuthwa ngaphandle komzamo ngaphandle kokuchitheka, ngenxa yezimbozo ezivikelekile nemiklamo ye-ergonomic. Izinzuzo eziyinhloko zihlanganisa:

• Ukugcinwa kokugcina : Azikho izidingo zokuwasha noma zokugcina
  
  
• Ukuthembeka lapho usohambeni : Izakhi ezivimbela ukuvuza zokuhamba nokuhamba
  
  
• Ukusebenzisa indawo ngokwehlanzekile : Imiklamo enqwabelene yenza kube lula ukugcina izinto emakhaya nasezindaweni zokubukisa

Ngokwesifundo sase-2022 sase-Institute yamaphoyisa, amarestore okukhetha izicabha zokudla zokugcina zazithola ukuthi zazithola umbono weminyaka emibili ngalokusho lokubuyela. Lokhu kufaka kusukela kuma-47 amahora okweyeshi ngalinyaka ngalilokho umuntu owasekhiya. Abantu abasekhaya kakhulu bafuna izicabha zokugcina ngokuphathwa ngokuvula ngoba ziyenza ukuthi ukuthatha ikofi kuqinisekile kakhulu ngomini wokuphambana noma xa ubhekene nesikhathi esincane esikhiywa ekhaya. Amabhisinesi futhi bathola imali ngoba akukho inkinga yokucleana nokuhlela. Lamanje, abaningi abantu bafuna lokho okungakwazi ukuthi bakhiphe kumunye umlando. Kungaba ngokuphambana ekhaya, ukwenza izinkomba, noma ukuthintana kusukela kusukela, ukuthi unesicabha sokuphatha kusukela kusukela kungakwazi ukuthi uhlale ngezinkinga zokuphatswa noma ukuthi ufuna indawo yokugeza.

Ukuhlelwa Okuphezulu Nokuzimiswa Ngokusebenzisa Izicabha Zokugcina Ngokusho Lokubuyela

Amacupu ayasuswa beka phansi izinkinga zokuhlanza ngoba ziyasebenzisa kuphela kanye, okuyinto ekubhekisana nokulwa kwezinkinga zokugcina isibonelo emazweni apho abantu abaningi baphumile. Izinkampani ezinokusebenziswa kabusha kufuneka zihlanzwe emva kokusebenziswa, kodwa nangakho amasweli angabekwa phansi. Indlu yezicupi zokusebenziswa kanye iyabona njengesibonelo esisha phakathi kwesithembiso somuntu no-umlomo wakhe. Umgcino wabonisa ukuthi izinto abazifunda abantu kakhulu emaqhafeni okukhala ama-coffee noma emisebenzini ayakha amasweli kusasa kusasa, ngakho izicupi zempapu zikhiyela amasweli ukuthi zihambisane phakathi kwebalungu. Amahospital ayabona lokhu kakhulu ngoba abantu abaningi banezinhlobo zokuhlwa kwezimpilo futhi amasweli anokuwathula. Lokhu kuyafana nezindlela ezingaphezulu apho izilayini ziyadlala kakhulu futhi ukuzivikela kuyisidingo esiphakeme kakhulu. Izinkampani ziyenza lezi zicupi zibalulekile ngokudibanisa izicatshulwa ezithile ezingakwazi ukuthi zihlale kahle lapho izidrinki zikhala, ngakho akukho nto engabiyo ekusenqumeni. Lapho abantu bavula icupi, bazi ukuthi ayabekwa phansi futhi yayenzelwe kuphela ukuba bakhale.

Ukusebenza Okuhlelwe: Ukugcina Ukushisa, Ukuqina Kwesakhiwo, Nokumelana Nokuvuza Ezinkomishini Ezisetshenziswa Isikhathi Esisodwa

Ukugqokwa okuyi-Barrer Coatings kanye ne-Double-Walled Insulation for Sustained Heat Retention

Ukwakhiwa kwezindonga ezimbili ngezikhala zomoya amacupu ayasuswa kunciphisa ukudluliswa kokushisa cishe ngo-40%. Lokhu kugcina iziphuzo zisesimweni esifanele sokushisa kuyilapho kuqinisekisa ukuthi ingaphandle lihlala lipholile ngokwanele ukuba liphathwe kahle. Esikhundleni sokumboza ngepulasitiki okuvamile, abakhiqizi manje basebenzisa izitshalo ezakha i-PLA noma amanzi. Lezi zakha izingqimba ezivikelayo ezincane ezinobukhulu obungama-micron angu-18 kuphela kodwa zisavimbela uketshezi ukuba lungaphumi. Inzuzo enkulu? Asisekho isidingo salezo zingubo ezengeziwe zephepha ngoba indebe ngokwayo iphatha iziphuzo ezishisayo nezibandayo ngaphandle kokuwa lapho ihamba. Ukuhlolwa kubonisa ukuthi lezi zindebe ezinodonga oluphindwe kabili zihlala zifudumele cishe izikhathi eziphindwe kabili kunezinguqulo ezivamile ezinengqimba eyodwa. Noma ubani owake washisa iminwe yakhe enkomishini yekhofi noma walwa nokugcwala kwe-condensate yonke indawo, lolu hlobo lokuthuthuka lwenza umehluko ekusetshenzisweni kwansuku zonke.

Imingcele Yokufudumala Okuqondene Nendaba Yendaba Nokuvumelana Kwezwe Langempela Neziphuzo Ezishisayo

Izicupi ezisebenzisa iphepha zikwamukela izintemperatura ezingu-90°C (194°F) ngaphandle kokuguqulwa kwazo, ngakho-ke izicupi eziphinde zinezindlela zokugcina i-PLA zikwamukela izintemperatura ezingu-60–70°C (140–158°F)—kubhekana nezintemperatura zokuhambisana kwekaffi ne-tea. Izingxenye ezintathu eziphambili zokuvikela zinikeza ukuthembeka kwezinhlelo zokusebenza:

• Izindlela zokugcina iphuzu ngokuphelele ekunqamuka kwezilungelo zokuzama ukuzama kusukela kumgca
• Amaglue amahle okuthembeka kwezintemperatura ekugcineni isibonelo esihle ngaphezu kwe-85°C
• Izimiso zokugcina isikhumba esizimele zizocwaningwa ngokuphatha kwe-15 psi
  Ukuvikela ububi kufaka kakhulu kuzo izilungelo zokuzama ngokuphatha kwe-95°C, nokuthi abasemthethweni abanamandla bafika emaphakathi kwe-99.8% yokuthembeka kwezilungelo zokuzama. Ukukhetha umkhawulo ukubhekana nezintemperatura zokuthembeka nangamandla okudala, ukunika ukuthembeka kwezilungelo zokuzama kuzo zonke izinhlelo zokuhambisana.

Ukuthuthukisa Okuphathelene Nokuxhumana: Izicupi ezinokugcina kwezinkunkuma nezincwadi zokuthembeka kwezinhlelo zokuxhumana

Izinhlobo zomkhawulo ezifundwa kwezintaba nezincwadi zokuthembeka kwezinhlelo zokuxhumana (isibonelo, BPI, TÜV OK Compost)

Okuphathelene nesinkunkuma amacupu ayasuswa baphatha ngokuphakeme izindlela zokusebenzisa izinto ezibalulekileyo eziphathelene nezinsukwane ezinamandla amahhala njengezinkunkuma zezindlaliso (isibonelo sesibhakabhaka esihlukanayo kwezindlaliso) noma iziphalasti zezinsukwane (PLA) ezitholakala kusuka kwezinkunkuma zezimbali. Lezi zinto zihlukana ngeminyaka emibili ngemuva kokuhlanganiswa kwemisebenzi yokuqhubeka—ngaphandle kwezicupi zeziphalasti zezintandabuzo, ozokuhlukana ngeminyaka emiyane. Izinhlobo zezincikezo zezimpilo zezifundo zezingqayizivele zikuvumela ukuthi lezi zinto ziyisibonelo sokubaluleka kwezinsukwane:

• BPI (Biodegradable Products Institute) : Iyavumela ukuthi kufanele kuhlanganiswe ngokuhlanganiswa kwe-ASTM D6400 emisebenzini yaseNtshonalanga yaseMeryka
• TÜV OK Compost : Iyavumela ukuthi kufanele kuhlanganiswe ngokuhlanganiswa kwe-European EN 13432 yokuqhubeka kwezinsukwane ngokuhlanganiswa kwezinsukwane
  Lezi zinhlobo zezincikezo zivumela ukuthi lezi zicupi zihlukana kabusha ku-mani, CO₂, nokunye okuhlanganisa ngaphandle kwezincikezo zeziphalasti zezinyawo.

Ukuhlanya Isigaba: Ukugcina Kwemisebenzi Yokugcina Ngaphandle Kwezinto Ezihlukene Noma Ukubaluleka Kwesibonelo Sokubaluleka Kwezicupi Zokugcina

Amaphayile aphakathi akubonisa ukuthi izicelo zokufaka emhlabeni zisemthwakweni zisenza isibonelo esincane sezinkulungwane zokugcina kunezizicelo ezisemthwakweni zokuphatha izinkulungwane. Kodwa kukho umphumela? Lezi zicelo zokuvimba izinto ziyadinga izimo eziphelele ukuze zihlale ngokuphelele. Amakhaya amaningi angazange abe nenombolo eyodwa yezikhulukazi zokufaka emhlabeni ukuze zizame ukuzihlala ngokuphelele. Kufanele kwenziwe ntoni ngalokho? Amakhaya kufanele asebenzane ngokuhambisana ukuze bazidelela izinca zokufaka emhlabeni. Izilabeli ezibonisa ngokucacile "kutholakale ukuthi zifaka emhlabeni" kuzosiza abantu ukuzazi ukuthi bafaka nini, ngakho akubaluleki ukubeka konke embinjini yezinto ezithile. Umnotho wenyama kufanele wabhekise ngaphezu kwezinhlelo zokuphatha izinto ezithile futhi. Ngelixa esihlale sisindisa izinhlelo zokuphatha izinto ezithile ukuze zihambisane nezinhlelo zokuvimba izinto, izicelo zokusebenzisa kabusha zingaba zibalulekile ngaso sonke isikhathi. Kodwa sibone ukuthi ngamanye amaxesha abantu bafuna kuphela into ethile ekhawuleni nokuhlala ngokushesha. Kulezi zikhathi, izicelo zokufaka emhlabeni zokutholakala zingaba yinkimbinkimbi enobunzima ekuphakanyiseni ukuthi kungahleli kwezinhlelo zokuvimba izinto ngaphandle kokuguqula ngokuphelele indlela esihlala ngayo.
