Research on the Use Intention of Intelligent Waste Recycling Facilities Under the Background of Smart City

Abstract

Under the background of smart city, the application of information technology in urban governance to promote waste information and resource management is of crucial practical importance to promote environmental sustainable development. Founded on the technology acceptance model and perceived risk theory, this paper establishes the research model of residents' willingness to use intelligent waste recycling facilities, furthermore, the key influencing equations of urban residents' willingness to use intelligent waste recycling facilities are analyzed by structural equation. The results show that perceived ease of use positively influences perceived usefulness and use attitude; Perceived usefulness’ effect upon use attitude is positive; Perceived risk negatively affects use intention; the impact of use attitude upon use intention is positive.
