| The Singapore-based Hamilton Laboratory is developing 3D printing toilets to help improve India's poor sanitation. Hamilton's HamilBot Mark 1 3D printer will use toilets made of reclaimed cement mixture for Madhubani and Darbhanga in Bihar. area.  In many parts of India, the world’s second most populous country, poor sanitation is a big problem. This is not a secret. UNICEF estimates that India has about 524 million people, no toilets, and therefore must use public places. Poor conditions lead to higher abnormal mortality. The solution that everyone recognizes is to build a large number of toilets. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi promised to eliminate the country’s public defecation culture by 2019. However, as 2019 is approaching, the country needs to work quickly. To achieve its ambitious goals. So far, about 60 million new toilets have been built, but about 40 million are required. Singapore National Assistant Manufacturing Innovation Cluster (NAMIC) is a 3D printing collaboration project jointly established by Singapore Nanyang Technological University (NTU), National University of Singapore (NUS) and Singapore Technology and Design University (SUTD). The Hamilton Laboratory in Singapore may be about to India's health projects make a huge contribution. Hamilton has signed an agreement with the Indian Rural Information and Action Center (CRIA) to use its robot 3D printing system to build 3D printed concrete toilets in Madhubani and Darbhanga in the northern and eastern parts of India in Bihar. The company stated that its robot 3D printer HamilBot Mark 1 can build 'quick, beautiful, comfortable toilet'. Bihar seems to be particularly in need of a quick solution. Dr. Shyam Anand Jha, who has been working on India’s health problems for many years, said that there is a serious shortage of trained craftsmen in the area, and the government has not provided enough funds for the area to help it achieve its goals. In this regard, Hamilton's affordable 3D printing toilet can really help. Fortunately, these 3D printed toilets are not made of typical 3D printed materials such as PLA and ABS, but are made of special cement made from recycled fly ash, which uses coal-fired power to generate electricity. The plant country is heavily used. |
