Students from the Kazakh Automobile and Road Construction Institute (KazADI) visited a snow-melting station in Almaty, an innovative facility that has become an important step in addressing winter snowfall issues.
What's important to know about the project? The snow-melting station uses wastewater heat to melt up to 1,200 cubic meters of snow per day. The purified meltwater is returned to the city sewer system, minimizing the impact on the environment. The technology reduces transportation costs and air emissions.
KazADI Rector Yessentay Dauren Yerlanuly emphasized the importance of such events: "For our students, this is an opportunity to see how modern environmentally friendly technologies work and apply this knowledge in their studies and future professions. We are proud to give students access to such projects."
Students' impressions:
Almabay Bakytzhan: "This inspires us to develop our own solutions that will be useful for Kazakhstan's cities."
Saylaugazy Sultan: "Technology not only helps improve city infrastructure but also minimize environmental damage."
KazADI actively collaborates with government agencies, introducing modern approaches to education. Plans include developing joint research projects and regular internships for undergraduate and graduate students.
We train specialists who build smart and environmentally friendly cities!
