The Benefits of Intelligent Video Technology in the Waste Management and Recycling Industry
A Clean Solution for Optimal Monitoring and All-Round Protection
The various companies that operate in the waste management sector handle the prevention, recovery and disposal of waste. Large areas, different materials, bulk materials, hazardous materials and heavy machinery make working environments challenging and complex. Using MOBOTIX video technology, you can keep on top of the situation.
Comprehensive Fire Protection
It is more difficult to provide fire protection for large exterior areas populated with containers and bulk materials, and the same is true for halls with high ceilings. MOBOTIX’s sophisticated video technology detects fire sources remotely by detecting critical temperature thresholds — often before a fire occurs. This means that the spread of fire can be effectively fought or prevented. Where other fire alarm systems such as aspirating smoke detectors or linear heat detectors reach their limits, MOBOTIX demonstrates its strengths.
Perimeter Protection and Occupational Health and Safety
Due to the large quantity of stored materials, recycling companies are often subject to break-ins. MOBOTIX video systems for perimeter protection help detect intruders day and night — whatever the weather. MOBOTIX can also help with occupational health and safety. For example, the cameras are able to recognize workwear such as helmets and vests, and automatically trigger an appropriate notification when people are detected who are not wearing these items.

Protect people and the environment, increase operational security and prevent damage
The future of each one of us depends now more than ever on how we deal with the future of our waste. As an integral part of sustainable development, only targeted, effective waste management can reduce our global footprint. In 2010, the global population produced around 3.5 million tons of waste per day. In 2016, this reached 5.6 million tons. By 2030, the forecast predicts 7.2 million tons per day, and this will continue to rise. Waste management is a major challenge for our future.
Around the world, the industry is being called upon to help overcome this problem using modern and pioneering concepts. Intelligent AI-based video technology can be a key factor in taking on this mammoth task, and we will be looking at how this can work . Download the Whitepaper to read more.
