Overview
How RFID enhances waste management efficiency.
Tony Hilder, HID Global
Details
For waste management solutions providers and system integrators, focus on efficiency, economy, and traceability is critical. Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a powerful tool for waste collection, disposal, and management, delivering unique and compelling benefits to city governments, waste removal contractors, and their residential and commercial customers. The technology enhances the efficiency of waste management operations, and it supports environmentally responsible waste disposal policies and practices.
RFID technology provides significant cost benefits by automating various aspects of the operation including verification of container pick-up, tracking customer usage, and measuring route efficiency. It is essential that the automatic identification technology used in these systems be as complete, effective, and reliable as possible to ensure consistent performance and to fully realize the benefits of the system.
This presentation covers global trends in adoption of RFID in waste management, local Australian case studies and future technology trends.
