The system allows users to send their own waste collection requests through an application, and then the waste collection vehicles visit people's houses, weigh the waste and purchase it from them.
“In this system, people can send their own waste collection requests, then garbage collection vehicles visit their houses and after weighing the waste, they buy it from people,” said Qamari, the managing director of the company.
He underlined that the municipalities can contact his company through the ‘Behroub’ website and submit their request to activate the system in that city. “Another point is that people are connected to the payment portals after delivering the garbage and can pay bills with their garbage money or use the services of internet platforms,” he said.
“We have also prepared the Arabic and English version of this system and now we are negotiating with several Iraqi cities to introduce this system to the Iraqi market,” Qamari added.
In a relevant development in April, experts at an Iranian knowledge-based company used home-made technology to produce smart monitoring systems to measure the amount of air pollutants and implement waste treatment and management plans.
“Our company is active in the field of production of environmental pollutant sampling and measurement equipment, and it is involved in the development of management systems for treatment plants and finding technological solutions to control the release of air pollutants and produce biogas from waste,” said Hossein Karimian, the managing director of the knowledge-based company.
He added that portable industrial smoke detector, environmental gas meter, car exhaust turbidity meter, car exhaust gas meter, environmental sound meter, free air particulate measurement device, and urban air pollution monitoring stations are among the products of the company.
“In addition to setting up water and air purification systems, the design, installation and management of solar systems are also carried out by our knowledge-based group. Measuring and reducing air pollutants, water and sewage pollutants and waste and providing calibration services of measuring equipment are other activities of our company,” Karimian said.
