Smart recycling boxes pop up at 51 new spots since May; 37 in Ang Mo Kio GRC
The smart recycling boxes only require users to key in their mobile numbers to unlock hatches to dispose of recyclables according to type. SINGAPORE – Local waste company 800 Super has pushed ahead with a wider roll-out of its smart recycling boxes from May, close to a year after ironing out several kinks in the technology from its pilot across 10 locations in Bishan East-Sin Ming. Over the past two weeks, the company fitted out its bins – which let users exchange recyclables for NTUC FairPrice vouchers – in 14 locations across Serangoon North, Potong Pasir and Braddell Heights, after its systems made its way to 37 void decks across all Ang Mo Kio GRC divisions in May. 800 Super is the public waste collector appointed by the National Environment Agency to collect refuse and recyclables for the Ang Mo Kio-Toa Payoh sector. It also serves the Pasir Ris-Bedok sector. Glitches such as login difficulties, blank screens and hatches that won't open in the bins used during the two-year trial in Bishan and Sin Ming should now be a thing of the past. Those bins have been replaced by improved bins from a new vendor, 800 Super told The Straits Times ahead of the launch of the Ang Mo Kio bins on July 20.

ST PHOTO: AZMI ATHNI Senior Minister Lee Hsien Loong attended the launch on the side of an event celebrating the completion of the Teck Ghee Neighbourhood Renewal Programme at Blocks 221 to 226 Ang Mo Kio Avenue 1. The software powering the smart recycling boxes has become more intuitive, only requiring users to key in their mobile numbers to unlock hatches to dispose of recyclables according to type – metal, plastic, paper, glass and old clothes.

Even so, screens might turn unresponsive after a scan, leaving users stranded with their recyclables. The risk of being stranded with recyclables is lower now as the refreshed app allows users to check the 'fill' status for each bin live before they go down. Previous users could not find out if a bin close to them is full. The new bins are bigger as well, allowing residents to fit more recyclables. Each of the five bins situated at each void deck can accommodate 360 litres, up from 240 litres previously. They have replaced the previous bins in the trial sites since July 2024, and their ease of use has more than doubled the recycling rates there. Monthly collections from the 10 trial sites have averaged some 15,000 kg since the switch, a far cry from the 7,517 kg average in the seven months prior. Since the smart bins were rolled out in Ang Mo Kio GRC between May 13 and 19, more than 2,500 of its residents have downloaded the 800 Super app to start collecting points. As at July 1, they have recycled 29,961 kg of metal, plastic, paper, glass and textiles. Madam Florence Lee, a 76-year-old retired hotel housekeeper, has used the bins below her flat at Block 225 Ang Mo Kio Avenue 1 more than 200 times since they were installed, earning 1,072 points. She can use 1,000 points to claim a $10 FairPrice voucher. Carrying a bag of about 20 metal cans on July 20, she deftly keyed in her mobile number on the screen and deposited the cans without a hitch, earning a point from her effort. She had brought back the cans from her estate to her flat for a wash first. On her mobile app, ST could see her last deposit of 1.96 kg of paper waste the night before was more rewarding, yielding her 10 points. Her best returns were 30 points, from depositing a big bag of used clothes someone else had left by a common bin. She told ST she has made it a daily routine to pick and sort common refuse, such as used delivery boxes, since she noticed the segregated recycling bins. The former avid user of the blue recycling bins said she doesn't mind going the extra mile, now that she would be rewarded for her recycling efforts. 'I am used to it. Even without this, I always take (recyclables) to throw in the (blue bins). People stare at me, but I am doing the right thing,' she said, noting that people 'spoil the world' when they don't do their part for the environment. The blue bins are a less sophisticated means of collecting recyclables, with metal, glass, plastic and paper waste mixed in a bin and sorted later in facilities. Each of the five new bins situated at each void deck can accommodate 360 litres, up from 240 litres previously. ST PHOTO: AZMI ATHNI Residents said there's still room for improvement. 800 Super could, for example, provide a QR code directing new users to download the app. They could also make the rewards system more bite-sized to motivate users to develop the habit of recycling. A 65-year-old former office worker, who arrived at the bins at Ang Mo Kio Avenue 1 with two big bags of paper and plastic recyclables on July 20, said she has accumulated only 50 points so far despite making it a point to recycle things since hearing about the bins weeks ago. She said she would feel more motivated if incentives can be redeemed in 100-point blocks. For the rest of the year, 800 Super would still set up new boxes in 22 other locations in the Ang Mo Kio-Toa Payoh sector. The company's director Milton Ng said the initiative supports the Singapore Green Plan 2030 and the national push towards a Zero Waste Nation by providing residents with convenient, 24/7 access to segregated recycling. The pilot showed recyclables collected through the smart bins were cleaner by 95 per cent, he added. This is significant as contamination is a major challenge for domestic recycling in Singapore. Contaminated recyclables are incinerated. Separately, SM Lee thanked residents at the completion ceremony of the Teck Ghee Neighbourhood Renewal Programme for putting up with the noise and inconvenience since upgrading works started during the Covid-19 pandemic in 2021. The government-funded initiative to rejuvenate older estates delivered close to 30 new and upgraded facilities, including covered linkways, drop-off points and covered barrier-free access ramps to improve the area's connectivity, the Ang Mo Kio Town Council said. 'Four years through Covid, we persevered and we (have) now completed it,' SM Lee said as he urged residents to make full use of the new facilities. 'We hope that this will make you a little happier and give you more opportunities to live fulfilling, healthy, forward-looking good lives.' At the ceremony, the town council also launched a set of exclusive commemorative tattoo stickers, which feature the dragon playground in Cheng San and the twin Merlion statues at Ang Mo Kio Avenue 1, among other heritage icons. Residents may collect the stickers from the front counters of the town council's offices at Avenue 1 and Avenue 10.

Smart toilets measuring stool's colour, hardness on sale in Japan, targeting health-conscious users
Find out what's new on ST website and app. Demonstration of a smart toilet measuring the characteristics of a model stool. TOKYO - Toilet maker Toto will begin selling on Aug 1 a toilet equipped with a sensor that measures the colour, hardness and amount of stool. The company says this is the first such product in Japan for general residential use. Two models of Toto's high-end 'Neorest' series toilets will be equipped with the function. The suggested retail price, including tax, starts at 493,900 yen (S$4,280). The company aims to sell 7,300 units per year in the third year of the launch. A light-emitting diode (LED) built into the models sheds light on falling stool, and the sensor receives the reflected light to measure the length, contour and surface shape. The colour is recorded in three levels (ochre, brown and dark brown), the hardness in seven levels (including liquid and semi-solid) and the volume in three levels. Up to six users can check the data on their smartphones. THE JAPAN NEWS/ASIA NEWS NETWORK Top stories Swipe. Select. Stay informed.
