Schoolchildren from Novosibirsk offered entrepreneurs a new garbage sorting scheme

According to the idea of the Hidden Leaf Engineers team from Novosibirsk, containers for separate garbage should be in every yard. But the young innovators significantly changed the further transportation.

As explained by Roman Mikhalchenko's team member, the garbage will be transported through pipes to the appropriate places.

"Maintenance of such pipes will be cheaper than a fleet of trucks, and transportation will save labor," says Konstantin Pavlenko, the captain of the team, a 10th grader.

The idea was appreciated by federal experts. As a result - 1st place in the school league of the International CASE-IN Championship.

The Hidden Leaf Engineers team beat competitors from 12 cities in the final and became the best. The final was held in an online format.

The first place in such a championship is a prestigious part of the portfolio, and the title of the winner will help in the entrance exams.

According to Artem Korolev, founder and co-chairman of the International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN", finalists and winners of the school league have the opportunity to receive additional points for the Unified State Exam upon admission to universities that are partners of the championship. There are nineteen of them in 2020. It is planned that every year the number of educational institutions will grow, and more students will take part in this project.

In addition to additional points, the students also won a trip to Tobolsk, Russia's largest petrochemical complex. They will go as soon as all restrictions are lifted.
