After many people smoke, they will throw the cigarette butts into the water to extinguish the fire in the butts. In addition, some of them will still be thrown into the ditches after being washed away by the rain. This has also become a common problem on the ditch covers. The accumulation of many cigarette butts reduces drainage efficiency, which not only pollutes the environment but also causes trouble to cleaning staff.The form of the drain cover was redesigned based on the discovered pain points, and a collection tank for cigarette butts was added to provide a cleaner-friendly cleaning method. The garbage can be taken out in two simple steps. Special resin materials are also used to collect the sewage after scouring the cigarette butts. After filtering, it is then discharged into the ditch to reduce bacterial breeding and odor residue.
