A study on selection of suitable sites for the integrated smart trapper system installation / Siti Syahiirah Rahim
Objektif kajian ini adalah untuk memilih lapangan paling sesuai untuk pemasangan InSmarts dan untuk mempromosi pemasangan InSmarts di lapangan berdasarkan keputusan yang diperoleh. InSmarTs adalah perangkap sampah yang diselaraskan dengan sistem komunikasi yang cekap serta cepat. Produk ini terbahagi kepada dua bahagian iaitu bahagian pertama adalah bahagian mekanikal ringkas yang terdiri daripada silinder campuran fiber serta plastik yang bertindak sebagai penahan sampah yang boleh diselaraskan secara daya apungan mengikut aras air. ‘Acoustic Doppler current profiler’ (ADCP) telah digunakan bagi mendapatkan data kelajuan air dan profil sungai di setiap lapangan. Kerja- kerja mengambil data telah dijalankan di tiga point berbeza sepanjang sungai lapanan untuk mengetahui kriteria terbaik bagi pemasangan perangkap sampah. Satu model perangkap sampah ringkas menggunakan paip polyvinyl chloride (PVC) berdiameter 2.5 inci sepanjang 12 meter dan beberapa batang rod keluli telah dipasang di lapangan untuk melihat corak aliran sampah berdasarkan klasifikasi tertentu. Sampel sampah telah dikelaskan kepada lima jenis bahan yang berbeza. Selain itu, sampel sampah juga dibahagikan kepada kumpulan berat yang berbeza untuk menguji sudut optimum untuk memerangkap sampah. Ujian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui sifat sampah yang terdiri daripada pelbagai jenis dan berat di dalam sungai. Daripada ujian yang telah dilakukan, kondisi paling sesuai untuk pemasangan InSmart adalah pada halaju air 0.1 m/s hingga 0.6 m/s dan perangkap dipasang pada sudut 45° supaya sampah terkumpul pada sudut tersebut. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ The objectives of this research are to study the suitability of selected sites to install InSmarts and propose installation of InSmarts at selected sites based on the optimum results. InSmarts is a floatable trapper that was being synchronized with the effective and better communication tools. This product consists of two main parts. The first part was about the simple mechanical process that mainly consists of a fibre reinforced plastic tube that acts as floatable rubbish trapper. This trapper can be work out according to any level of water because it can float on the surface of the water. Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) was used to get water velocity and river profile at sites. The data was acquired at three different points along the river at each sites to know the best position to implement InSmart. A simple rubbish trapper consist of 12 metre polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipe with 2.5 inches diameter and steel rods was installed at sites to record the flow pattern of the rubbish based on their certain classification. The rubbish was classify into five types of different materials. Then the rubbish also divided to different class of weight to test the optimum angle to for the trapper to trap rubbish. These tests were done to find out the attributes of different rubbish materials and weights in the flowy medium such as river or drainage. From the test that has been done, the optimum condition to install InSmart at sites are the velocities of the river must be around 0.1 m/s to 0.6 m/s and the trapper must be set up at 45° angle to accumulate the thrash at one side of the trapper.
