Creative design for energy saving and emission reduction

1. Water-saving

1. Water-saving faucets: When installing a new home or renovating an old house, it is recommended to install a water-saving faucet. Although the initial installation cost is relatively high, it is still cost-effective from the perspective of long-term water conservation. When you usually use running water to wash your face or wash vegetables, it is recommended that you open the faucet 50-80% according to the situation. In addition, the faucet dripping phenomenon cannot be ignored. If your faucet drips, you can open the rubber cover on the faucet handle yourself, and you will see a cross screw. Unscrew the cross screw and remove the handle, and you will see a copper octagonal screw. Generally, tighten the octagonal screw clockwise a little to prevent leakage. If it is still exposed, unscrew the octagonal screw counterclockwise, take out the aged rubber pad, and replace it with a pad of the same size cut from an old bicycle inner tube or a small medicine bottle cap. If it doesn't work, just replace it with a new faucet.

2. Toilet water saving: fill one or two green tea or small Coke bottles with water and put them in the toilet water storage tank. Then fill the rubber plug in the tank with melted paraffin. After it solidifies when exposed to cold, the plug will become round and heavy, which can prevent water leakage from the plug. These two water-saving measures can save a lot of water throughout the year.

3. Waste water utilization: The water from the washing machine or vegetable washing can be used for flushing toilets.

2. Energy Saving

Under the premise of choosing energy-saving appliances first, remember to unplug each appliance after turning it off. Because on the one hand, the phenomenon of power consumption in standby cannot be ignored; on the other hand, in the standby state, the heat dissipation of electrical appliances will shorten the service life of the electrical appliances. Electrical appliances may also be damaged during thunderstorms. If you find it troublesome to pull out and plug out the plug every time, you can also install a socket or strip with a switch. When sleeping or going out, be sure to turn off the power supply to save energy and ensure safety. Pay special attention to checking the wires regularly to prevent leakage.

3. Home Emission Reduction 0?2 "Emission reduction" in home life mainly includes indoor decoration pollution and odor return from kitchen and toilet floor drains.

1. Indoor decoration pollution: ?0?2?0?2?0?2 After indoor decoration and purchase of furniture and cars, various toxic and harmful substances are evaporated and emitted indoors. Indoor decoration pollution can be controlled and reduced through "early, less, better, and better". "Early" means to prepare early and allow 2-3 months for natural ventilation before normal use to reduce pollution; "less" means to make less unnecessary and superfluous decorations and be simple and practical to reduce pollution; " "Good" means to choose environmentally friendly materials and regular decoration companies when economic conditions permit; "find" means to promptly find environmental protection, technical supervision and other relevant authoritative departments to test whether the indoor air quality meets national standards after the decoration is completed. If the standards are not met, you should promptly find building materials, furniture suppliers and decoration companies to clarify the responsibilities, and find relevant professionals for scientific pollution control. Especially young people who are preparing to get married should pay more attention to this matter.

2. Kitchen and toilet floor drains return odor:?0?2?0?2 Because the domestic sewage discharge system and floor drain anti-odor design of new buildings are unreasonable, poisonous gases and odors from outdoors and sewage pipes are introduced indoors. emission. Today’s kitchen and toilet drainage pipes in newly built buildings have reduced “U”-shaped backwater bends. Although it reduces building construction costs and increases indoor space, it also opens up the barrier between sewage pipes and each household. Most of the floor drains commonly used by people at present are traditional bell-type floor drains. To put it bluntly, this kind of floor drain uses the water sealing principle of Sichuan kimchi jars. A small iron bowl is turned upside down on the drain outlet. There is less than 1 cm of water between the pipe mouth and the small bowl, which can drain water and play a role. The function of sealing drain pipes. Because this structure often causes poor drainage, many citizens simply remove the small iron bowl to directly expose the drain pipe mouth. In fact, even if you don't remove the small bowl, the sealing water will easily evaporate. After this little water dries up, odors, cockroaches, etc. will of course be able to come and go freely. When it is impossible to change the building structure, the only solution is to focus on floor drain odor prevention. Zhang Wentao has tried many methods and materials, among which the self-made deodorizing floor drain core can basically achieve smooth drainage and complete deodorization. Specific method: According to the thickness of your drainage pipe, cut a piece of plastic pipe about 5 cm, stick a circle of plastic wrap on one end of the pipe, stick the plastic wrap into a cylindrical shape, and leave 10-15 cm of plastic wrap under the pipe. Wrap the other end of the plastic pipe with raw material tape until it is slightly thicker than the drainage pipe, then apply 502 glue and install it in the mouth of the drainage pipe.

Drainage is very smooth. After drainage, the plastic wrap will automatically close and retain a certain amount of moisture, preventing insects and odor. Now Zhang Wentao has contacted the manufacturer to mass-produce the so-called "Zhang Gong environmentally friendly and deodorant floor drain core" using engineering plastics and natural rubber based on this principle. There is no need to replace the floor drain, installing this one will prevent odor. Moreover, its production cost is equivalent to that of homemade products, but its anti-odor effect and service life have been greatly improved.
