With the continuous growth of urban population and the acceleration of urbanization, the amount of municipal solid waste generated is increasing exponentially. These growing wastes undoubtedly bring new challenges to urban waste management. In this context, advanced technological tools are urgently needed to optimize waste management processes. Vehicle-mounted tablets, as an emerging technological device, have gradually emerged in the field of waste management, bringing new solutions to various aspects of waste management.
Route Planning and Scheduling Optimization
Equipped with high-precision GPS positioning modules and advanced navigation software, rugged vehicle-mounted tablets can obtain real-time vehicle location information. By integrating data on traffic conditions and trash cans location, they can plan the most optimal collection routes for drivers. For example, in large cities, garbage collection tasks are arduous, and the time and volume of garbage generation vary across different areas. Vehicle-mounted tablets can dynamically adjust collection routes based on this information, avoiding no-load, overload or redundant routes, thereby reducing fuel consumption and transportation time. Meanwhile, dispatchers can monitor vehicle locations and driving statuses in real-time through the management system, flexibly adjusting task allocations according to actual situations to ensure the efficient operation of waste collection.
Trash Can Status Real-time Monitoring
It is also available to achieve real-time monitoring of trash cans status by installing sensors on trash cans. When a trash can is full or dumping, the sensors will upload the abnormal status and location information of the trash can to the could server. Then, based on the vehicle status, the managers will assign an appropriate trash truck and synchronize the task information to the vehicle-mounted tablet, promptly notifying the driver to address, practically preventing environmental pollution caused by waste overflow. In addition, through the analysis of the trash cans data, the trend of garbage production can be predicted, which provides a basis for reasonably arranging the waste collection frequency and adjusting the layout of garbage cans. For instance, in some commercial areas, the amount of waste on weekends will be much larger than that on weekdays. Through data analysis, the collection plan can be adjusted in advance to ensure that the waste is collected in time.
Waste Weighing and Data Recording
For waste management, accurate recording of waste weight is crucial for statistics on garbage output and calculation of disposal fees. Rugged vehicle-mounted tablets can be connected to vehicle-mounted weighing sensors to obtain and record related data such as the time, location, and weight of each collection. These data can be uploaded to the management system via 4G networks, facilitating statistical analysis and report generation by management personnel.
Vehicle Monitoring and Safety Management
Waste trucks face various safety risks during operation, such as traffic accidents and vehicle breakdowns. Rugged vehicle-mounted tablets, by integrating vehicle communication modules such as 4G/5G and Wi-Fi, can enable real-time communication with the management center. The management center can monitor vehicle speed, location, and driving routes in real-time, promptly issuing alarms for abnormal situations such as speeding or deviation from the planed route, and preventing issues like illegal dumping and leakage. At the same time, vehicle-mounted tablets can also be connected to the vehicle’s On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) system to obtain key parameters such as engine speed, oil temperature, and oil pressure, providing early warnings for vehicle failures and enabling proactive maintenance arrangements to ensure the safe operation of vehicles.
In conclusion, vehicle-mounted tablets have a wide range of applications in waste management. From waste collection, transportation monitoring to data analysis, they can effectively improve the efficiency and accuracy of waste management, and contribute to the realization of sustainable waste management goals. 3Rtablet is also dedicated to manufacturing rugged tablets with accurate GPS positioning and stable signal transceiving capabilities, making them perfectly suitable for waste management applications, bringing more intelligent and efficient solutions to this challenging field.
