IDnova: Active RFID for Waste Collection - PADOVATRE SIRV
- 1. Active RFID for Waste Collection PADOVATRE SIRV RFID-based electronic emptying system to reduce the carbon footprint IDnova – www.idnova.com
- 2. Environmental awareness • Improve the citizens awareness of the amount of non-recyclable waste they produce; • How to? – Inform citizens (global warming, biodiversity…); – Build up the respect for the environment by teaching it at school; • Finally… SAVING MONEY THE LESS WASTE YOU PRODUCE THE LESS YOU PAY IDnova – www.idnova.com
- 3. How it works 1. Distribution of domestic bins for waste collection; 2. Distribution of TAGs; 3. Instructions for the citizen. IDnova – www.idnova.com
- 4. Letter sending tags and instructions GREEN – Grass Leaves, hedge and grass cuttings, vegetable garden residue. ORGANIC – Food waste Food leftovers, rotten food, fruit, and vegetable waste, coffee grounds, tea filters and bags, pet excrement and litter tray contents, cut flowers and house plants, stale breads, oily or greasy paper towels, cold ashes, small bones and fish remains (bones and shells). DRY – Non-recyclable dry material Any other material not listed above and which does not come into any other category. IDnova – www.idnova.com

- 8. How it works For citizens For operators • Attach the tag to the bin; • Fill the bin; • Put the bin on the street on the right day; • Pay per use, proportionally to the number of emptying. • Take the RFID reader before leaving the depot: reader colour matches the colour of waste bins to be collected; • Empty bins as usual: no additional operation required; • Pay attention to the reader feedbacks (warning on pending payments and wrong bins); • Put the reader it in the cradle at the depot: it will start an automatic wireless data synchronisation. IDnova – www.idnova.com
- 9. Why active RFID? • Quick and dirty: because it works! • It works fine: reading rate 100%! • Minimum operators training: – Take the device from the cradle and put it back; – Execute only usual collecting operation; • No changes to be made to the waste collection vehicles. IDnova – www.idnova.com
- 10. Why active RFID? • The device collects: bin_ID, timestamp, battery_level; • Wow! I was going to forget concerns about battery life? • The battery life is of over 3 years – real data from the field. • The RFID active tag is thin and light: a longer battery life could be easily reached increasing its dimensions. IDnova – www.idnova.com
- 11. SIRV, some data • The system has been running for over three years; • Approximately 58 municipalities and 300k citizens; • We are planning the third generation of tag: – New enclosure; – Battery enhancement; – Algorithm optimisation for power saving. IDnova – www.idnova.com
