With the enjoyment of the Christmas season comes great responsibility. This is the reminder brought forward by EcoWate Coalition, as it urged the public to cut down on holiday trash (Holitrash) with 3Rs and more. The waste and pollution watch group drew attention to what each and every person or household can do to lessen what it calls the enormous holiday trash or “holitrash.” At an event held at the Quirino Elementary School (QES) in Quezon City where QES students, applying the 3Rs, flaunted a creatively made lantern adorned with used spoons and bottle lids, a Belen made of juice packs, and a Christmas tree from PET bottles, the EcoWaste Coalition pointed out that the tons of “holitrash,” if not kept in check, would end up being disposed of in streets, waterways, dumpsites, incinerators, or in the oceans, which are already choking with plastics and trash. The group chose “Christmasaya kapag walang aksaya” as the perfect theme for the occasion. “The volume of waste produced is expected to soar as people shop, party, dine and have fun during the joyful season. Sad to say, the throwaway culture is at its worst as the birth of the Redeemer is recalled and celebrated. In Metro Manila, for instance, per capita waste generation during Christmastime is estimated to rise from 0.7 kilo to 1.2 kilo,” said Daniel Alejandre, Zero Waste Campaigner, EcoWaste Coalition. The most discarded items during the extended celebration of Christmas and New Year include paper and plastic shopping bags; all Read More …
A home inventor from Davao has finally perfected the biofuel invention he started working on since 2003. Davao-based Emiliano Quitiol calls the fuel additive the EFQ Bioforce. Quitiol utilized used cooking oil as raw material for the production of EFQ Fuel and Oil Additive. According to Quitiol, adding 1mL of his product to a liter of fuel will act on and rearrange the molecular structure of the conventional fuel into chain branching of hydrocarbon atoms. This allows more efficient fuel combustion and consequently reduces air pollution. Quitiol already has three kinds of products, namely EFQ Bio Force Diesel Additive, EFQ Bio Speed Gasoline Additive, and EFQ BioPower Engine Oil Additive. The Filipino inventor said he started working on the biofuel to solve the dilemma of proper disposal of used cooking oil. “Fresh cooking oil, after several times of use, is considered a toxic substance and hazardous (to health),” Quitiol said. His idea stemmed from his resolve to help curb pollution. He said his invention will eventually help restore bodies of water affected with spillage and contaminants that may pollute and destroy the habitat of marine life. Quitiol won in the Department of Science and Technology (DOST)- National Invention Contest and Exhibit in 2014. Later, he availed himself of the Invention Based Enterprise Development Program of DOST- Technology Application and Promotions Institute. IBED is a program intended to encourage and transform innovations into a technology enterprise. It covers pilot production, field/market testing and formulation of systems and procedures in preparation for Read More …
