Programme Highlights
1) Food Waste Pilot Pilot: This food waste pilot plant was
jointly developed by Hong Kong Productivity Council (HKPC) and Associated
Engineers Limited (AEL) in Zhahai since mid 2018. The objective of this pilot
study is to demonstrate the performance/efficiency of the 2-stage Anaerobic
Digestion (AD) system after scaling up from 50kg/day to 1tonne/day of maximum
treatment capacity. This 2-stage AD technology has been awarded the winning
design at the 45th Geneva International Exhibition of Inventions 2017 and the
Innovation Award at the 2017 Institution of Engineering and Technology in
London. The by-products after AD process including i) methane gas for
heat/electricity generation, ii) residual floating oil for biodiesel production
and iii) solid residue as a kind of animal feed could be 100% fully utilized
for commercial application.
2) Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) is
a professional robot working on the surface of water. It has demonstrated more
and more benefits to various environmental application areas, such as water
sampling, water quality monitoring, water surface cleaning, and nuclear
radiation monitoring etc. USV is a maneuverable and reliable way to improve
working efficiency and reduce working risk on water.
YunZhou is the world-leading USV solution provider. Since 2010,
YunZhou’s autonomous boats have already served quantities of clients from
industry, government office, research institute and universities in the world
wide. With the big opportunities in the Artificial Intelligence era, YunZhou
will make continuous efforts to develop more and more advanced USV solutions to
better serve people's life.
