RED BULL BASEMENT 2021: the comment of the creators of the E-TRASH project

E-TRASH it’s a student project Filippo Casellato, of Bassano del Grappa, and Umberto Bolzoni, originally from Mestre, who chose to join Red Bull Basement to develop their idea. It is a smart and self-sufficient cestito which makes separate collection a simpler and more automatic process thanks to the recognition of the material. Filippo and Umberto declare: “The idea was born when, looking at the bins in public places, we realized that too many people are still not paying attention or are not aware of how to properly dispose of waste”

The words of the creators of the BROKERGREEN project

Alessandro Rizzo e Vito Ragaglia they are students of Electronic Engineering in Catania and have given birth to BROKERGREEN. The project, born in a very short time, aims to conceive waste as an asset to be enhanced and reused as if it were a raw material. Alessandro and Vito underline: Agro-industrial waste must be reintroduced on the market, since an incorrect management of their disposal causes considerable damage to both the environment and the economy. This is why we have thought of an app that will allow companies to request or offer this waste, concluding the agreement with a click and in total safety.
