Suitable for all high density residential and commercial centres, the Avac municipal Automated Waste Collection System (AWCS) uses vacuum pressure to transport waste up to 4km via an underground pipe network to a central Waste Collection Facility. There it is compacted into transportable bins and easily loaded onto trucks for off-site processing.
As the Avac Automatic Waste Collection System transfers waste to a central collection point, the number of garbage trucks on our local streets is essentially eliminated, improving localised air quality and making streets safer for all.
Waste collection via Avac vacuum waste transfer requires half the energy of truck and bin collection, saving money and reducing the municipality’s carbon footprint. The ability to separate organic waste means that some communities are even producing energy from the collected biofuel.
As the system makes it easy to separate waste streams, recycling contamination rates are significantly reduced, further saving on waste disposal costs.
Automatic Waste Collection Systems reduce ‘on-site’ waste storage space due to both increased collection frequency and compacting of the waste in the centralised waste collection station, meaning less ‘wasted’ space for all.
