– FINALIST of REVIVING MINES: SHANDONG PARK Competition

 

In our project, we decided to focus on the abandoned territories of the mines, that created impact in the form of huge cavities in rock formations.  Our idea was to create a negative for the destructive action of mines affecting the landscape, air, nature and many others.

 

Places, where the cavities occur, we decide to fulfill with self-sustainable energy factories. These places work multidimensionally:

 

Located on the north side of hills, become a greenhouses – artificial crops powered by solar energy, collected from photovoltaic panels located on the southern parts of the hill. Glass structure is covered with a titanium oxide coating, which converts nitrogen dioxide from the air into nitrates, which are fertilizer for plants.

Plants, that grows inside the factory, are used for production both food and biofuel. Organic waste is burned anaerobically, which results in obtaining biochar – used to produce very fertile soil.1

 

Our proposal use territories that were damaged by a man, in the intention of repaying nature and the earth for the sake of the damage done in earlier years.
