Washing Machine Toilets: Two Shots And One Bow
Posted in Eco-Friendly, Eco-friendly products, Efficiency, Environment, Green, Products, Recycling on 21 February 2008

I am sure none of use has ever thought about liters of water getting wasted with every cloth we wash in a washing machine? Honestly speaking, it’s a conscious waste of valuable reserve, isn’t it? And in the course of our ignorance, there were alarmed designers working over it to come out with a practical solution to this problem.

And one such conceptual design is Washup designed by Sevin Coskun from Turkey. It incorporates washing machine with toilette-flush. The machine is preset over the toilet and is intended in such a manner that clothes are easily poured in without any kind of bend. An unusual crossing point counting three semi-sphere control units and two flushing buttons is considered for a realistic handling of the creation. The exhausted stream from washing machine is reprocessed to redden the toilet thereby saving water.

Truly, this green concept sounds interesting and can ready break heads amongst eco-lovers, as and when it hits the market. Now, I can say it’s not only two shots and one bow but right focus as well.

Scientists working on smart soap that requires less water to rinse
Posted in Eco-Friendly on 27 August 2007

Â

What actually caught my attention while browsing through this section was the term “smart soap”. There is no gainsaying the fact that we all have heard of beauty soaps, detergents etc. But yeah, smart soap, the name, I believe sounds very cerebral. Â

To be very candid, I strongly feel that most of the commercials that are aired on television only ditch their consumers. If the ad shows a woman exhibiting a brand new shirt out of the bucket, consider it to be fake.Â

I’m extremely glad that adequate attention is being paid by scientists to convert a dreary household chore like washing clothes into an exhilarating and less time consuming activity. I congratulate our scientist brethren for having come up with an innovative idea of a smart soap that serves the dual purpose. Not only will the soap vanish all the stains but it will also prove expedient in consuming less quantity of water. Considering the fact that dearth of water is a persistent problem in
India, such an innovative product will certainly let the consumers take a sigh of relief. Â

Endowed with magical powers, this soap will help us become a little lenient with our clothes washing regime. So let nothing deter you from purchasing this product to experience the difference.
