Description

Integrated Management System of Recycling Waste and Management Method Thereof The present invention relates to an integrated recycling waste management system capable of classifying, collecting, and processing recyclable waste in real time within large-scale facilities such as apartment complexes or large shopping malls, and a method for managing the same. In the modern urban environment, the efficient management of recyclable waste is an important task. The existing recycling system involves users manually sorting recyclable waste by type and disposing of it, followed by a collection company visiting to collect the waste and transport it to a processing facility. Consequently, the existing recycling system suffers from the problem of incurring significant time and costs during the collection and processing stages. In addition, there is a problem of reduced recycling efficiency due to improper sorting. In addition, existing recycling systems have the disadvantage of requiring manpower in the collection and processing stages because the work requires manual labor. FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram showing an integrated recycling waste management system according to one embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a configuration diagram showing an integrated recycling waste management system according to another embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the configuration of a smart classification unit in a system according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 4 is a flowchart illustrating an integrated management method in a smart classification unit according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating the compression process in a smart classification unit according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 6 is a flowchart illustrating an integrated management method in a transfer device according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 7 is a flowchart illustrating an integrated management method in a central processing unit according to an embodiment of the present invention. In order to fully understand the present invention, the operational advantages of the present invention, and the objectives achieved by the embodiments of the present invention, reference must be made to the accompanying drawings illustrating preferred embodiments of the present invention and the contents described in the accompanying drawings. The present invention will be described in detail below by explaining preferred embodiments with reference to the attached drawings. However, in describing the present invention, descriptions of already known functions or configurations will be omitted to clarify the gist of the invention. FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram showing an integrated recycling waste management system according to one embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a configuration diagram showing an integrated recycling waste management system according to another embodiment of the present invention. As illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, the integrated recycling waste management system according to embodiments of the present invention commonly includes at least one smart sorting unit (100), a conveying device (200), a central processing device (300), and a management device (400). At least one smart sorting unit (100) is installed above ground in a facility such as an apartment complex, an officetel complex, or a large shopping mall so that users can deposit recyclable waste, and a central processing unit (300) and a management unit (400) are installed underground in the facility. A transfer device (200) is equipped with a transfer means capable of transferring recyclable waste deposited into the smart sorting unit (100) above ground to the central processing unit (300) underground. Although FIGS. 1 and 2 illustrate an example of installation divided into above-ground (GR) and underground (B1), this is not limited to this, and if there are structural problems preventing installation underground or if sufficient space is provided to install the central processing unit (300) and management unit (400) above ground, the design may be modified and applied. At least one smart sorting unit (100) can be provided in two forms. According to one embodiment of FIG. 1, the smart sorting unit (100) can be installed individually in each generation. According to another embodiment of FIG. 2, the smart sorting unit (100) may be installed on each floor, on even/odd floors, or in a common area between floors. Also, if there are many households on one floor, at least two or more may be installed on each floor. This smart classification unit (100) normally operates in a low-power standby mode, but when a user approaches or movement is detected, it releases the standby mode and activates into an operable mode. The activated smart sorting unit (100) can operate to perform user authentication and automatically open the inlet when authentication is successful.
