Key Operational Features
-
Fugitive methane emission detection using Optical Gas Imaging (OGI) camera.
-
Ground behavior analysis.
-
Elements supervision: ditches, fences, restricted areas.
A waste management facility located in Madrid, Spain, conducts daily inspections to analyze ground behavior and the protective elements (ditches, fences, etc.). This is crucial for operations, as landfills are sources of hazardous gas emissions that can be harmful to health or cause negative environmental impacts if emitted at specific rates.
To address these challenges, the facility has integrated our most dynamic and comprehensive Watchbot.
Watchbot is the only robot on the market equipped with OGI camera. These cameras are designed to detect methane leaks, analyze their flow rates, and automatically alert the appropriate personnel.
The robot autonomously patrols the facility, conducting thorough monitoring of all programmed variables, navigating all types of terrain imperfections, inclines, slopes, and other obstacles.
Additionally, it performs recurrent analyses of the ground's behavior, supervising structural elements to maintain the landfill's safety and efficiency.
Implementing Watchbot at the waste management facility not only enhances safety but also ensures operational efficiency, making it an invaluable tool in managing and mitigating environmental and health risks associated with landfill operations.
