Abstract

INTRODUCTION

Technology brings many effects in humankind, whether these are neither advantages nor disadvantages. Factories, gadgets, vehicles, modern machinery, power plants, and many more are works of technology. Household refrigerators and freezers are found in almost every home on the industrialized parts of the world and in increasingly large number elsewhere. Most refrigerants are known for having a negative effect on the environment since they contribute to global warming and ozone layer depletion. With this, the researchers designed a cooling machine, which is a handy one in which people can be able to bring it anywhere. It is smaller compared to the typical refrigerator, a cheaper one, for its material came from previously useless things that are converted into essential pieces.

 

METHODS

The descriptive method of research was used in this study. The study involved 84 students from different track such as Academic Track (STEM 11 and 12) and Technical-Vocational-Livelihood (TVL-EIM 12). The survey questionnaire, observations and direct interview would be used in order to gather data that are needed. The method presented was used to describe the features of the alternative cooling machine made from recycled materials.

 

RESULTS

Using recycled materials, the researchers created an alternative cooling machine that is easy to assemble and can provide cold water conveniently. It is eco-friendly for it does not produce chlorofluorocarbon, it is hand-carry and leads to lower bills. It is then necessary to prepare this cooling machine tailored to meet those needs without compromising the quality and purposes of the output, particularly for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and better protection of the ozone layer.

 

DISCUSSIONS

The researchers aim is to provide a solution to the environmental impacts of refrigerant gases and contribute to the protection of our environment. It is with the reason that refrigerants pose a threat to the environment because of their ozone depletion and global warming potential. The cooling fan as part of an appliance releases the ambient temperature that produces by the system.The researchers used recycled materials coming from the old computer system to produce an eco-friendly product. Natural refrigerants can easily be recycled after use or vented to the atmosphere without a negative impact on the environment.
