Landfill Site Safety-Technology Disaster Prevention for Landfill Sites
In recent years, the rapid pace of urbanization has led to a surge in household waste and large discarded furniture. With incinerators in various counties and cities operating at full capacity and the slow progress of converting RDF (Refuse-Derived Fuel), landfilling remains a short-term solution. Achieving the goal of reducing waste volume and increasing recycling rates is crucial. However, the impact of landfills on nearby residential environments and the high risk of fires make disaster prediction and prevention urgent. Location Context: Originally located in remote suburbs, the site has now become a densely populated area due to urban redevelopment and proximity to administrative districts. The increased frequency of fires, combined with climate change, results in severe problems such as the spread of odors and fly ash into residential areas.

Client Needs
- Smart detection of smoke and flames.
- Active notification during the early smoldering stage to prevent fire expansion.
- Reducing the need for patrol manpower.
Key Issues
- Thermal Detectors cannot detect deep-seated smoldering and smoke, making it difficult to effectively detect early-stage fires.
- Underground temperature sensors are prone to damage by excavators.
- Lack of 24/7 monitoring personnel makes it challenging to detect and address anomalies promptly.
Solutions
- Establish a decentralized structure for on-site personnel and local authorities to manage and monitor anytime, anywhere.
- Install Video Fire Detectors at high locations to avoid damage from vehicles or machinery.
- Set up a Video Fire Detection System to help on-site personnel address early smoldering stages and prevent the disaster from spreading, thus avoiding air pollution in nearby residential areas.
