American Vacuum Wet Slurry Collection

Welcome to NYC’s most unique trash system. Underneath Roosevelt Island is a vacuum-like apparatus of tubes that carry trash from every building to a centralized facility at high speeds. The process is known as automated vacuum collection (AVAC). The AVAC system handles the garbage for the 12,000 New Yorkers living on Roosevelt Island. It’s one of the few systems of its kind in America – the other most notably at Disney World. It’s managed by @nycsanitation with the help of @rooseveltislandny. Me

How Does a Vacuum Cleaner Pull Air In? 🧹🌪️ #VacuumCleaner #TechExplained #HowItWorks #ScienceInDailyLife 🏠 | Snap Study

Science on Instagram: "This tool uses vacuum suction to grip smooth surfaces with ease. By creating a pressure difference between the air inside the suction cup and the outside environment, it forms a strong seal. This allows robots to lift glass, metal sheets, and other fragile materials without damaging them.
