Townew T1 White - smart waste bin, white, capacity 15.5 liters

Product Information

Because we are terrible at recycling properly, the recyclables that are collected by waste haulers requires a lot of sorting. The extensive sorting increases the production costs of recycled plastic pellets. South Korean startup Ecube Labs develops CleanCUBE – a waste bin with solar-powered waste compaction, which can hold up to 8 times more waste compared to non-compacting bins. The built-in safety sensor detects motion and stops waste compaction when it detects a hand or finger while also reducing the frequency of collection. The information is relayed to their cloud and analytics platform CleanCityNetworks for analysis. Smartsensor – Temperature Sensors

The cost of smart bins is still off-putting for many businesses and organisations. This relates to the upfront cost of implementation and subsequent maintenance costs.Contamination is when waste materials end up in the wrong place. This often happens with coffee cups. Coffee cups are lined with a waxy coating that ensures your drink doesn’t ooze out five minutes into your morning commute. Many well-intended people dispose of these cups in recycling bins. But coffee cups aren’t recyclable. They thus contaminate the bag of recyclables, as the entire bag can’t go to a recycling plant. A smart bin, is a connected waste or recycling bin that is able to monitor how full it is in real-time. The smart bins communicate with a janitor and sends an alert to them when the bins become full. Inefficient waste management can lead to problems for both local communities and the already swelling landfills. Overflowing bins pose a public health concern, while poor disposal habits (like not knowing how to recycle plastic properly) is leading to carrier bags ending up at the bottom of the ocean. Solving these problems usually calls for more workers and more vehicles, but smart bins may be the solution to spiralling costs. What smart technologies are being used in skip hire? Our ambitious product development roadmap includes the addition of machine learning and computer vision in 2023 — which will provide even more data about what the bins eat — as well as solar powered options. We hope that our efforts will make a net positive impact on the planet, offering us much-needed data, accountability, and transparency throughout the supply chain.

Smart bins can be a real asset to busy city centres and other high-traffic areas by offering the following benefits: The waste and recycling management supply chain begins with garbage bins. This is the first place our waste/recycling goes. Because of this, bins in commercial buildings like airports, universities, offices, shopping malls, stadiums, and hotels need to be updated.If that isn’t enough, intelligent safety sensors are also installed to stop compaction if it detects a hand, preventing accidental injuries. Smart bins can also identify fires, alert the monitoring station, and even extinguish flames to lighten the load on local fire brigades.
