Product name: NANO-FOTOCIDETM Water Disinfection System
Company name: EnvironmentalCare Limited
Comments from the Judging Panel
The disinfection system relies on an oxidation process
which disinfects pathogens and disintegrates organic
pollutants in water. The principle mechanism involves
the activation of a nano-coated, titanium dioxide-based
and highly efficient catalytic surface by the ultraviolet
spectrum of light energy. The innovation is in the
spiral core design that maximizes the contact surface
with the incoming water molecules. The system is effective
in destroying common water-borne micro-organisms such
as E. coli, Vibrio cholerae and decomposes them into
harmless final breakdown products in form of oxides.
The product is user-friendly, economical and easy
to maintain. It provides a low-cost technology-based
solution to water disinfections for fish tanks used
in the food service industry. |

Product name: Cleanbot Service Robots for building cleaning
& maintenance
Company name: CIDAM/MEEM, City University of Hong Kong
Comments from the Judging Panel
It is designed for replacing human workers standing
on scaffoldings or gondola platforms to carry out
cleaning, inspection and repair in tall building.
Different robots were developed to cope with the wide
diversity in building structures while they share
the same common technologies, which include the state-of-the-art
computer control, advanced sensor technology, vacuum
gripper design, mechatronics and tele-operation technology.
The human operator can stay in a safe location to
operate the robot remotely or even pre-program the
robot to perform the tasks automatically to reduce
the risk to injuries. |
