Reusable- reusable face shield- solar powered autoclave- storage tech?- sorting tech: e.g. light sensor testing for opacity/scratches
Recyclable
Tech Interventions for reusability
- Sorting tech: Evaluation of quality of PPE (e.g. light sensor for opacity, whether its scratched up)
- Materials (reusable, e.g. face shield)
- Evaluation of resuse/recycle approach vs business as usual
- Evaluation of quality of PPE (e.g. light sensor for opacity, whether its scratched up)
- Storage solution
- Cleaning (autoclave or other)
- Storage solution?
- Cleaning (e.g. solar powered autoclave from WHO)
- Distribution tech, 'sharing' approaches as a collective, e.g. sharing PPE, sharing autoclave access; large and small clinics (Fab Labs could be a distribution Hub)
- Recycling or degredation or incineration
- Technologies that prolong the life of PPE (e.g. face shield cleaner)
Tech interventions for recycling
- Developing new PPE from recycled feedstock - enabler: Material characterization technology; ASTM standards
Interventions: institutional
- Protocols for storing
- Fab Labs help with recycling PPE that has been stored for an adequate time period
- Evaluation of resuse/recycle approach vs business as usual
