It took less than half a minute to put the waste materials into it, and the money exchanged could be returned. According to the relevant staff, this is the first real-time cash-back intelligent garbage sorting and recycling machine in Shibei District. At present, there are 220 sets in the city. Next, Shibei will be laid out in Jimo Road, Yan ‘an Road and Ningxia Road, and 350 sets will be put in the city before the Spring Festival.

"It’s so convenient. I just put in a pound of newspaper. After operating for less than half a minute, my mobile phone received 44 cents. Now the waste recycling is so foreign." Liu Jianchun, a citizen who came to deliver the old newspaper, said that when this "little yellow dog" was first installed in the community square, it was attracted by its beautiful appearance, and every day he looked forward to the early installation.

The benefits obtained from each launch can be queried from the APP or WeChat applet in real time. When the amount reaches 10 yuan, it can be withdrawn through the bank card or WeChat red envelope tied to the APP account.

Liu Jianchun said that there are many clothes she doesn’t wear, used newspapers and various cans at home, and she doesn’t know what to do with them. "Now with this little yellow dog, these wastes finally have a place to go. Putting them into the little yellow dog and changing money is really killing two birds with one stone." Liu Jianchun said that now more and more residents around her have tasted the sweetness of garbage sorting, and they all volunteered to be propagandists of garbage sorting. Everyone said that those who have abandoned garbage can try the "little yellow dog" in our square, which is especially good!

At present, there are 220′ Little Yellow Dogs’ in the city."

Later, we will invest in professional garbage sorting equipment to form a unified sorting at the end, and reprocessing and reproduction will form such a cycle." Wang lung said.
