About Vitality Family Garden Komposhouer

Vitality Family Garden is 'n klein binnenshuise komposhouer wat ontwerp is om huishoudelike kombuisafval te verwerk. Erdwurms wat binne die houer geplaas word, eet voedselreste en verander dit in natuurlike bemesting. Die bemesting word dan gebruik om groente in klein plantpotte te kweek. 'n LED-plantlamp ondersteun plantgroei binnenshuis, en die beligtingsmodusse word met knoppies gekies. Die produk is nie geoutomatiseer nie, so kompostering en plant word deur die gebruiker voltooi. Vitality Family Garden verminder kombuisreuk en gee voedselafval terug aan nuttige lewe.

Unique Properties

Production Technology
The indoor planting technology used in the product is quite mature, and the LED lighting supplement technology used is also suitable for mass production.
Design Challenge
The earthworm are a difficult group to control. They will escape the soil when the external environment is unstable. In the end, we got a lot of guidance information from insect biologists and agricultural planting experts.
Research
Literature review, observational studies and focus groups made to support the design process. Literature review data is documented in research documents submitted.
Inspiration
Food waste accounts for 46.2% of combustible waste, but each ton produces 0.3 tons of carcinogenic gas and a large amount of carbon dioxide. Traditional burial and incineration will not only pollute the land and air, but also waste food resources that should have been rationally used.
As one of the major categories of domestic waste, reasonable disposal of kitchen waste is an important issue in today's waste disposal.
Project Duration
Through the form of composting, the kitchen waste becomes an essential nutrient for plant growth, so that the discarded kitchen waste can be turned into delicious food again.The project was launched in Japan and China in December 2019. This is a 6-month experimental project that will end in June 2020.
Operation Flow
Control the lighting mode through the buttons. The product is not automated, and is designed to allow consumers to complete composting and planting activities independently. Earthworms and planting lights can help people better nurture and take care of their plants.
