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.

目前的垃圾收集方法几十年来基本没有变化，系统效率严重低下，造成不必要的空气污染物和繁忙城市道路的拥堵。智能废物基础设施和预报远程信息处理（SWIFT 力求通过使用传感器和优化收集路线来解决这些问题。在垃圾箱/料斗中改装/安装 SWIFT 设备也将减少因垃圾箱/料斗溢出（改善城市地区的舒适度）和飞倾倒垃圾而产生的垃圾发生率。在英国各地，43 个区域中有 37 个区域的二氧化氮年均限值超出 排放量（通常与车辆有关）、垃圾的发生率在过去 12 年里没有下降，成本在 717 英镑至 850 英镑之间，2013-14 年发生了 852,000 起飞车倾倒事件。该项目旨在确认由于在商业和工业废物收集用的垃圾箱和料斗上安装 SWIFT 设备而假设对排放、卡车移动、垃圾和飞式倾倒装置产生的影响 （工商业）废物部门。
