Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

There are numerous problems in the collection, sorting and transportation of solid household waste (SHW) from a multi-storey buildings. The aim of this work was to explore the prospects of a new type of garbage chute system for removing SHW from multi-apartment buildings. The results obtained indicate substantial prospects for the practical implementation of the patented waste disposal system in the housing and communal services sector to effectively solve the issues of collecting, sorting and removing SHW from multi-storey residential buildings. This is achieved through a well thought out design of the waste disposal system and using materials consistent with accepted SHW, allowing for its quality sorting. In addition, the necessary levels of fire safety and disinfection are ensured thanks to the timely detection and localisation of potentially hazardous ignition or contamination objects in the loading device.
