FUTURE CITY

Transcript of English Assignment 2 (Oral Presentation)

FUTURE CITY

Case Study: Subang Jaya

Subang Jaya - A Potential Existing City

To Be Transform Into A Urbanism Future City

• A suburban city in the Klang Valley.• Size of the city is nearly 70 .• Shopping paradise as many large scale shopping malls such as S

unway Pyramid and Empire Subang are built within this city.• Also a famous light industrial hub, for example: Sime UEP industr

ial park.• Act as a higher education hub, for example: Taylor's University is

one of Malaysia's largest private university. • Healthcare is provided and secured by two private hospitals whi

ch are Sime Darby Medical Centre Subang Jaya and Sunway Medical Centre.

• Technology with surveillance cameras and sensors• It can recognise the criminal’s identity • It can also automatically connect to information from

government, businesses and social media sources

K5-ROBOT

POLICEMEN ROBOCOP

• It’s a fully robotic gear• Robocop has faster reactions

and faster speeds

DOME PROTECTION

• Supercharged Plasma Window

• It can vaporize metals

WATER AND WASTE MANAGEMENT

WASTE MANAGEMENT PNEUMATIC WASTE COLLECTOR

• Pneumatic waste collection directs the waste through a network of underground tubes, from the user’s home or from a drop off box located in the street to the collection plant.

• In this plant, the waste is separated according to the collected fraction and is stored in sealed containers, ready to be transported to its treatment destination.

HOW IT WORKS? Users of the pneumatic waste collection system deposit their refuse into waste inlets,

located aroundthe chosen operating area. Waste collection points are placed outdoors or indoors and are accessible 24 hours a day. There is one waste inlet for each type of refuse (which will typically be divided into mixed waste, organic waste and paper waste). The refuse is temporarily stored by the waste inlets until the next emptying cycle.

The refuse is then transported along the pipelines into containers at the waste station. When full, the containers are sent away for further processing using, for example, the city’s existing underground railway network.

The system is remotely monitored and controlled by operators at the waste station. In addition, some staff are needed to handle the system maintenance when required. No personnel are needed in the actual collection and transport of waste from the collection point to the waste station.

Typical application areas for pneumatic collection systems include large metropolitan and residential areas, high-rise buildings, public spaces, healthcare facilities, and hotel and office complexes.

WASTE STATION Basically, the waste station is located as far as 2 km from the waste collection points. The

entire network can be monitored and controlled by the waste station operators. At least one container is required for each waste type. It is also possible to connect the waste station to the existing public transportation rail network.

WATER MANAGEMENTGREY WATER SYSTEM

• Greywater (also spelled graywater) or sullage is defined as all wastewater streams generated from households or office buildings except for the wastewater from toilets. Sources of greywater include for example sinks, showers, baths, clothes washing machines or dish washers. As greywater contains many fewer pathogens than domestic wastewater, it is easier to treat and to recycle onsite for uses such as toilet flushing, landscape irrigation or even irrigation of crops. Application of greywater reuse in urban water system provides a substantial benefit for both water supply and wastewater subsystems by reducing the need for clean water in water distribution system as well as generated wastewater in sewer system.

HOW GREY WATER SYSTEM WORKS ?

•Greywater is water from basins, baths and showers that is piped to a surge tank. The greywater is held briefly in the tank before being discharged to an irrigation or treatment system.

•The greywater can be diverted either by gravity or by using a pump.

•The surge tank can be any type of container that is suitable for holding (but not storing) the initial surge of water. The surge tank must be emptied completely each time greywater is dispersed to the irrigation or treatment system – greywater must not sit for extended periods of time in the tank.

•A gravity system can only be used when there is sufficient fall from the laundry/bathroom drain to the surge tank.

TOURISM AND HOSPITALITYFirst impressions

Officers need to be polite Airports need to be clean

What is Green Building?

A green building incorporates design, construction and operational practices that significantly reduce or eliminate its negative impact on the environment and its occupants. Building green is an opportunity to use resources efficiently while creating healthier environments for people to live and work in. Green building can also significantly reduce construction and performance costs.

Why Build Green?• Green buildings use less energy, water, create less waste,

and are healthier to live, work, or go to school in than standard buildings. Contractors of green buildings incorporate techniques that use resources more efficiently during the entire building cycle—construction, renovation, operation, maintenance, and demolition—than builders of conventional structures.

• The environmental benefits of building green include the protection of ecosystems and biodiversity, improved air and water quality, less waste flowing into streams, and the conservation of natural resources. Green buildings can also result in lower operating costs because they typically use less energy and materials and improved indoor air quality, which improves the health of occupants.

How to build Green?Green roofs are another feature of green houses that reduce energy use and cost. These roofs are partially or completely covered with vegetation, which helps minimize heating and cooling costs, prevent storm-water runoff, and filter pollutants.

Other features of green buildings often include energy and water conservation, recycling, and waste reduction. In addition, renewable energy sources such as solar power, hydropower, and wind power are used for heat and electricity, which significantly reduces costs and decreases the impact on the environment.

High-Tech City = Future City

LOVE + High- Technology= Future City

City without love is not a future city that we want.City without high- technology does not fulfill the requirement to be a future city.
