Waste Management Innovation For Public Health
This solution is related to climate and communities, and could have a local impact, as well as a global one in improving public health and quality of life, as well as cleaning up the surrounding environment.
The solution is an invention, a portable household sized waste management system, that employs novel chemistry within its operations, such as sublimation and vaporization. The product requires funding for safe development.
This could be a very powerful technology and device. It would serve a lot of people in it’s ideal realization.
Studio Shangri-La is well positioned to deliver innovative designs, and sharp Scientific intuition.

- Concept: An idea for building a product, service, or business model that is being explored for implementation; please note that Concept-stage solutions will not be reviewed or selected as Solver teams
This solution is in the concept stage, but a very powerful concept that I involved in for a while in writing and raising awareness.
I am playing to solve in the hopes of bringing this vision to reality, or taking steps towards that.
- Financial (e.g. accounting practices, pitching to investors)
- Human Capital (e.g. sourcing talent, board development)
- Technology (e.g. software or hardware, web development/design)
This portable/small scale innovative approach is by decentralizing waste management, and something like this could potentially revolutionize environment and public health with significant positive change in cleanup, efficiency and circularity of waste and energy.
The most immediate next goal is to develop a working prototype, and then go from there.

So far the progress indicators have to do with the efficiency of the Technologies and materials employed in the design.
I should think that portable, circular waste management would have an obvious positive effect, if put into practice. Subl

Equity and inclusion in the distribution of this technology is very important to me for numerous reasons, including that in order to be most effective, it should be widely distributed.
