Smart Waste Infrastructure & Forecasting Telematics (SWIFT)

目前的废物收集方法几十年来基本保持不变，系统效率严重低下，造成不必要的空气污染物和繁忙的城市道路拥堵。智能废物基础结构和预测远程信息处理(SWIFT试图通过使用传感器和收集路线优化来解决这些问题。翻新/在垃圾桶/垃圾桶中安装SWIFT装置还将减少垃圾桶/垃圾桶溢出(改善城市地区的舒适性)和苍蝇倾倒造成的垃圾发生率。在整个英国，43个区域中有37个超过了NO2排放的年均上限(通常与车辆有关)，垃圾发生率在过去12年中没有下降，成本介于GB 717-GB 850 Mpa和2013-14年度的852,000起苍蝇倾倒事件之间。该项目旨在确认在商业和工业(C&I)废物部门用于收集废物的垃圾箱和垃圾桶上安装SWIFT装置对排放、卡车移动、垃圾和垃圾倾倒产生的影响。

Current methods of waste collection have remained largely unchanged for decades, whereby significant inefficiencies exist in the system, creating unnecessary air pollutants and the congestion of busy urban roads. Smart Waste Infratsructure & Forecasting Telematics (SWIFT seeks to address these issues through the use of sensors and collection route optimisation. Retrofitting/installing the SWIFT device in bins/skips will also lead to a reduction in the incidence of litter resulting from overflowing bins/skips (improving the amenity of urban areas) and fly tipping. Throughout the UK, 37 of 43 zones are in excess of the mean annual limit for NO2 emissions (commonly associated with vehicles), the incidence of litter has not declined over the past 12 years and costs between £717- £850Mpa and there were 852,000 incidents of fly tipping 2013-14. This project seeks to confirm the impacts on emissions, truck movements, litter and fly tipping hypothesised to arise as a result of installation of the SWIFT device on bins and skips used for waste collection in the commercial and industrial (C&I) waste sector.
