Smart Bins In U.A.E |
|---|
|
A campaign to segregate waste by the Centre of Waste Management-Abu Dhabi (CWM) is being expanded into new areas. The centre is installing 30,000 smart bins in neighbourhoods, which are monitored by advanced radio-frequency identification (RFID) remote sensor systems. Volunteers helping out in the campaign told surprised householders the bins can track how much waste they are throwing away. Each waste bin has an electronic chip with its geographic and technical details, which can be read by a device in waste collection trucks (through RFID technology) The device is linked to a central monitoring station, which ensures timely collection of waste from containers and their periodic washing.There are 15,000 green bins for recyclable waste and 15,000 black bins.
