In particular, COLTECH has two groups of students with the idea of ​​starting the contest is “Smart Agriculture” and “Equipment and technology of handling animal carcasses environmentally friendly”.

Overcoming 8 ideas at the competition, the idea of ​​”Aspei students and environmentally-friendly animal carving technology” was highly praised by enterprises and won the first prize. After the award, team leader Le Cong Chinh shared, the purpose of the group is to look forward to rubbing, learn from experience and introduce new technology friendly to the environment. After the joyful when the organizers announced the results, the team members are very surprised.

Previously, in afternoon 21/3, UET in collaboration with Youth Union – Students Association of Hanoi organized the contest “Startup city initiative STARTUPCITY ROADSHOW 2018 – VNU”. At the competition, 04 teams of UET have presented successive ideas for starting a business, including Easy Law – Accessibility Assistance System; Environmentally friendly animal handling equipment and technology; Lively – Student Health Care System; To study and produce modules and equipment for monitoring and controlling environmental parameters for agricultural production. Two groups of students, Le Cong Chinh and Tran Duc Huy, with the idea of ​​”Animal Carving Technology” – “Smart Agriculture” were selected to participate in the final round of the competition.

The idea of “environmentally friendly animal care equipment and technology” was recognized by the Aspei student group through the fact that after the epidemic the number of animal carcasses was huge, but the process for handling carcasses are now too complex. On the other hand, the process leaves huge environmental consequences. Thus, under the guidance of the teachers, the group has begun to develop new cyanide treatment technologies. Based on the criteria set by the group “Technology for Life”, the team built this technology with a human-oriented goal, with a fully automatic, closed autocorrelation process and minimal impact to the environment as well as human health.
