Ibyerekeye Marimask Igikoresho cy'ibanze: Agapfukamunwa

Umwandiko w'Igitabo: Marimask ni agapfukamunwa gakoreshwa inshuro imwe gafite uduhari dushobora gucibwa mu buryo bworoshye. Buto iri kuri ako gapfukamunwa ica uduhari mu gihe agapfukamunwa kuriwe, bigatuma habaho kugabanuka kw'ibyago by'inyamaswa z'inyanja gufatanwa n'uduhari. Agapfukamunwa n'ipaki yako bikorwa mu bikoresho biva ku moya y'inyanja (seaweed) ashobora kubora mu butaka cyangwa mu mazi y'inyanja. Ibinyabutabire by'umuti biva muri ibyo fibre by'amoya y'inyanja binatanga ubushobozi bwo kwica udukoko tw'ibyorezo, kandi ubwiza bwa filiteri buhuye n'ibipimo bya KN95. Ipaki isobanura impamvu gucamo uduhari kurinda ubuzima bw'inyamaswa z'inyanja. Uyu mugambi w'igishushanyo urimo gutanga umuti ku bibazo by'agapfukamunwa kenshi kajugunywa kandi kagera mu migezi no mu nyanja.

Ibyerekeye Igihembo cya A' Design Award cy'icyuma

Marimask Igikoresho cy'ibanze: Agapfukamunwa ni uwegukanye Igihembo cya A' Design Award cy'icyuma, ishimwe ry'agaciro ritangwa ku bishushanyo byiza bihuza ibyo umwuga n'inganda bikeneye ku bihangano byashushanyijwe neza. Abegukanye icyuma bagaragaza ubuhanga bukomeye, ubumenyi bwihariye, imyumvire y'inzobere n'ubushobozi bwo guhanga bw'ababikoze. Marimask Igikoresho cy'ibanze: Agapfukamunwa biteganyijwe ko izaba igihangano cyubahwa, gishimwa kandi gikundwa, gifatika kandi gifite udushya. Iki gishushanyo cyegukanye icyuma gihuza uburyo bwiza bukoreshwa mu nganda kandi gifite ibiranga bya tekiniki bifite ubushobozi, bifatanye n'ubumenyi n'impano. Marimask Igikoresho cy'ibanze: Agapfukamunwa yubahwa kubera gukora neza, kandi yashushanyijwe kugira ngo inoze ubuzima, ifashe gutuma isi iba nziza.

Ibintu Bidasanzwe: Marimask is a face mask with easy-cutting straps. It guides people to click the button, which can easily cut off the mask straps, aiming to reduce the risk of marine life strangled by masks. Being made of Biodegradable Materials, it can be degraded and composted later after use.
Ibipimo n'Ipaki: 150mm x 100mm x 5mm
Ibibazo Fatizo: Face mask, Ocean protection, Marine life, Degradable materials, Sustainable design
Ikoranabuhanga ryo Guteza Imbere: Marimask and its package are made of seaweed-based materials, which can be biodegraded in soil or seawater. The seaweed fiber added to the mask has an antibacterial effect because it will form a weak acid environment rich in sodium and calcium ions, where bacteria cannot survive. Additionally, the filter efficiency of the mask reaches the standard of KN95.
Ikibazo cy'Ishusho: The most difficult part of the design process is selecting the appropriate structure to enable people to cut the straps in a natural and efficient way. Finally, we chose the Push-button structure, which makes the action of cutting the straps consistent with that of removing the mask, which is easy and convenient. Additionally, we innovatively use the seaweed-based materials that can be degraded and composted later after use to add more value of environmental protection.
Ubushakashatsi: Abstract
Research types- Interpreting research.
Purpose- The pollution of discarded masks has become a huge threat to marine life. However, little design has provided a practical way to solve this problem. This work aims to remind people to cut the straps when discarding masks and make this behavior more natural and efficient.
Design/methodology/approach- Primary research, secondary research, Focus Groups, User Journey Map, etc.
Findings- Every month that the planet faces the coronavirus, an estimated 200 billion disposable face masks are being disposed of and entering rivers and oceans. These synthetic PPE items can hurt marine life by entangling them with straps, polluting the environment with their Non-biodegradable material. Cutting straps is a proper way to discard the masks. However, only less than 20% of people know it.
Originality/value- We design a face mask with easy-cutting straps. Through intuitive graphic information and simple operation, it mobilizes people to protect marine life through simple daily behaviors and makes an outstanding contribution to marine protection.
Ibyatumye Habaho: Every month that the planet faces the coronavirus, an estimated 200 billion disposable face masks are being disposed of and entering rivers and oceans. These synthetic PPE items can hurt marine life by entangling them with straps, polluting the environment with their Non-biodegradable material. Cutting straps is a proper way to discard the masks. However, only less than 20% of people know it.
Igihe cy'Umushinga: The project started in December 2022 and finished in February 2023 in Guangzhou.
Uburyo bw'Imikorere: People can learn the significance of cutting mask straps to save marine life from Marimask’s package. When they run out of the mask, they can click the button and the mask straps will be cut off. And then they can throw it in a dustbin. The mask will be biodegraded in soil or seawater, which is environmentally and sustainable.
