SMART WASTE: FILL LEVEL MEASUREMENT IN WASTE DISPOSAL CONTAINER MANAGEMENT

INDUSTRY: Disposal and waste management

Berlin Recycling GmbH wants to optimize its processes and move towards Smart Waste systems, especially in waste disposal management. It uses fill level measurements with sensors on waste containers and compactors, which rely on FUSION IoT SIM cards for data transmission. By analyzing the fill level data, optimum routes can be planned for the waste collection vehicles and empty runs avoided. The automatic transmission of fill levels and container status to the central server enables early detection of critical fill limits and improves services.
