Abstract

The recent decade has witnessed water pollution as an important issue for the entire world.It threatens the welfare and prosperity of the people,plants,and creatures.As the world turns out to be more modern and smaller as the intersection and exchange,it adds risk to the marine and river pollution.The problem of water pollution,river trash collector system concept was introduced to reduce water pollution in the area.Sungai Melaka is one of the tourist attractions in Malacca.There are boating to see the beauty of the river.Malacca State Government has issued a high expenditure for the beautification of riverfront with making repairs to existing residential structures along the river.As a result,the index of water quality is rising and river surroundings Melaka more festive and beautiful.However, the Melaka river continues to be plagued with waste pollution.The waste resulting from human activities are not concerned about daily hygiene and cleaning activities river.Melaka River cleaning (flushing) is carried out by opening the door of the dam downstream to allow sea water into the river.The sea water mixed with river water that goes to wash the mud and dirt to aid smelly.They also cause side effects.Seawater entry will be refused with the accumulated garbage at dammed into Melaka River.From the problem of water pollution,a cost-effective technology has been introduced known as River Trash Collector System (RTCS) to collect the rubbish.It used floating mechanism and concept of ballast tanks to ensure River Trash Collector System (RTCS) has the competence to float on the river.The project is studying the specifications of float mechanism for River Trash Collector System (RTCS) in the water and the previous study describes the features that are used in these devices.In order to solve the problems encountered in the previous innovation,research has conducted to River Trash Collector System (RTCS) based on ideas of designed and suggestions of materials to be used.The study will identify each design has particular characteristics, advantages,and disadvantages.Furthermore,Solid Works software is used to design the system for River Trash Collector System (RTCS).Meanwhile,Solid Thinking software or ANSYS software is used to determine the ability of design,durability,and impact on the environment.After the desired design is obtained based on data and information adequate,Rapid Prototyping machines used to produce components according to scale the model established.
