Clean sewage with robots:
Clean sewage with robots a project completed by 4th IISF 2018 exhibitions. A robot to clean sewage without any human intervention might any human intervention might be the answer to the problem of sanitary workers dying while cleaning drains, thanks to the prototype developed by Chennai’s Nama Kartik.
“A number of sanitary workers die when exposed to harmful gases in the drain while cleaning sewage. I have developed a robot to track and lean sewage in order to save lives,” said the engineering student who is in a city to showcase his model during the India International Science Festival 2018.
To market their invention, the young engineers have started a startup called ‘Genrobotics’. After receiving the patent for the robot from India, the company has now applied for the world patent, applicable in 150 countries.
After gauging the problem, the robot dismantles itself from the main machine and goes into the hole taking tools such as a shovel or a jet pipe, depending on the magnitude of the problem, and cleans the system.
