In Kharkiv, the first anniversary of the Trash Killer garbage collector on the Uda River was celebrated.
During this time, it was possible to clear the river of more than 30 tons of garbage, reports ecoactivist Artem Prykhodko on Facebook.
He noted that the Trash Killer has shown its effectiveness in cleaning the river from different types of garbage and under different weather conditions.
Prykhodko emphasized that the garbage collector was never repaired during the year. It is in perfect condition with no signs of corrosion or rust.
During this time, his basket was cleaned of household waste and plant remains 14 times. Work continued even after the full-scale invasion, despite the systematic shelling of Kharkiv.
Prykhodko thanked the development engineers, everyone who took an active part in the installation of the garbage collector and continues to participate in the maintenance of the Trash Killer, as well as everyone who joined the initiative to clean the Uda River.
Earlier, EcoPolitic wrote, that engineers from Kharkiv designed the first in Ukraine river garbage collector Trash Killer.
