Collection of used cooking oil made easy and effective
Whether used at home or in your business, it’s important to remember that used cooking oil (UCO) isn’t a waste – it’s a highly valuable resource and an important trading commodity in the waste management market.
In 2021/22 year, globally, the amount of vegetable oil produced exceeded 200 million metric tons, and this number is rising every year. Appropriate management and recycling of UCO is essential to ensuring a sustainable and circular economy.
In most municipalities, citizens and businesses can collect and dispose of their used cooking oil in collection containers, which prevents environmental hazards and water contamination. No matter the type of oil, everyone must follow some basic due diligence from the federal government, as improper management of used oil can lead to problems. Sensoneo Waste Monitoring System helps municipalities, waste collectors, and UCO recyclers with the efficient management of UCO in their pickup assets.
The system utilizes radar sensors installed in containers to monitor fill levels, ensuring timely collections, preventing overflow, and mitigating environmental hazards associated with improper disposal of UCO. Using radar technology, sensors send important data to the Sensoneo software platform (up to 24 measurements per day) to ensure a real-time overview of fill levels and timely pickups. The buy-back and UCO recycling companies get an exact overview of how much material they collect.
Benefits:
- Environmental Protection: The system prevents contamination of water sources and soil, reducing ecological damage in the collection area, by eliminating the overflowing of collection containers.
- Efficient Resource Utilization: Optimizes pickup routes of UCO waste collectors, minimizing fuel consumption and carbon emissions.
- Cost Savings: Reduces operational costs associated with manual monitoring and unscheduled pickups.
- Compliance: Ensures compliance with environmental regulations and standards governing waste management of hazardous waste.
- Data-Driven Insights: Provides valuable data for informed decision-making and continuous improvement of waste management practices.
Implementing the Sensoneo Waste Monitoring System for used cooking oil containers offers a holistic solution for efficient waste management, emphasizing environmental protection, resource optimization, and regulatory compliance. By leveraging radar sensors and advanced analytics, the system enables proactive monitoring, timely pickups, and data-driven decision-making, contributing to a sustainable and cleaner environment.
