An apparatus and method for feeding and conveying material in a sorted manner in a pneumatic material conveying system, in which at least two material fractions re fed from a feed aperture and conveyed in a channel space further to a delivery end of a material conveying channel by gravity and/or suction Material is fed from at least one feed aperture of at least one input point and a first material fraction is conducted to the channel space and stored temporarily in the channel space or conducted to the outside of the channel space, and material is fed into a feed-in container, in which a second material fraction fed therein is held in temporary storage by a stopper means.

A method for handling material and conveying air in a pneumatic conveying system for material, which conveying system comprises at least one input point (1) for material, a material conveying pipe (100), which is connectable to an input point (1), and at least two separating devices (10A, 10B), in which the material being conveyed is separated from the conveying air, and also means for bringing about a pressure difference and/or a transporting air flow in the conveying pipe (100) at least during the conveyance of material, which means comprise at least one partial-vacuum source (21). In the method, material is conveyed in a transporting air flow in a material conveying pipe from an input point in a selected manner into one of at least two separating devices (10A, 10B), and that at least one of the aforementioned separating devices (10A, 10B) is configured to function as the standby separating device of a second separating device. The object of the invention is also a separating device arrangement and a waste conveying system.

A vehicle waste disposal system connected to a vehicle, the vehicle waste disposal system including a waste receiving container connected within a passenger compartment of the vehicle to receive at least one waste item therein, a waste storage container connected within a trunk of the vehicle to receive the at least one waste item from the waste receiving container and store the at least one waste item therein, a pipe connected at a first end to at least a portion of the waste receiving container and connected at a second end to at least a portion of the waste storage container, and an air dispensing unit connected to at least a portion of the waste receiving container and the pipe to move the at least one waste item from the waste receiving container to the waste storage container in response to extracting air from the waste receiving container and expelling the air into the pipe toward the waste storage container.

The invention relates a device for suctioning off waste products of the production machine comprising a suction chamber at which at least a suction element is assembled which extends into a suction space, which is outside the suction chamber in order to convey waste products into the suction chamber, wherein the suction element comprises an inlet area, which is facing the suction space and an outlet area, which ends in the suction chamber.

Method for treating outlet air in a pneumatic waste conveying system, in which the outlet air is at least partly the conveying air to be used in waste conveying. In the method in a first phase additional air is brought into the body of conveying air in the partial-vacuum generator of the pneumatic waste conveying system before the output aperture of the partial-vacuum generator, and that in the method in a second phase additional air is brought into the body of outlet air as a consequence of the suction effect brought about by the outlet air in such a way that the outlet air and the additional air mix with each other at least partly. The invention also relates to an apparatus.

The disclosure generally pertains to systems and methods for trash collection management. In an example embodiment, a dumpster monitoring apparatus may determine that an amount of garbage in a dumpster exceeds a threshold level (such as, for example, above a full-level marked on the dumpster). If the garbage exceeds the threshold level, the dumpster monitoring apparatus automatically transmits a request to a dumpster management apparatus to dispatch a garbage truck. In an example scenario, the dumpster monitoring apparatus may further determine that a current location of the dumpster is stationed is inaccessible to the garbage truck. Consequently, the dumpster monitoring apparatus may automatically transmit a request to a robot vehicle (such as robotic forklift) to move the dumpster from the current location to a new location that is accessible to the garbage truck. The dumpster monitoring apparatus may then inform the dumpster management apparatus of the new location.

An apparatus for processing material in connection with a pneumatic material conveying system includes a waste container/separating device, into which material is configured to be conducted from a conveying pipe of the pneumatic material conveying system via an inlet aperture and which is configured to be connected to a partial vacuum generator. The apparatus further includes a press device/compactor device, which is arranged to act on the material (w) conducted into the waste container/separating device, via at least one aperture formed in the container, and that at least one wall that is transverse with respect to the input direction of the material is arranged in the container space of the waste container/separating device, which wall is configured to guide the material into the operating range in the container space of the compressor of the press device/compactor device.

This description relates to garbage chutes and more particularly to recycling of waste management utilizing intelligent software and computer hardware along with mechanical hardware to implement protocols to properly separate recycled waste into corresponding waste receptacles. Each deposit is logged into a database where software management of analytics aids in the proper management of disposal of waste and timing of separation of recyclable goods creating a more efficient recycling management system.
