- La solución IoT basada en LiDAR proporciona un modelado 3D de las pilas de residuos para optimizar el proceso de reciclaje al tiempo que se reduce el impacto medioambiental de la planta.
- Los datos LiDAR permiten a la solución de medición de densidad de residuos priorizar la incineración de residuos.
- Los sensores LiDAR de Quanergy ofrecen una precisión y una densidad de nubes de puntos 3D líderes en el sector.
Sunnyvale, CA 27 de julio de 2021 - Quanergy Solutions, Inc. proveedor líder de sensores LiDAR de estado sólido basados en OPA y soluciones 3D inteligentes para automoción e IoT, ha anunciado hoy un nuevo despliegue de LiDAR inteligente que automatiza las operaciones de una planta de residuos, para garantizar la eficiencia del proceso y minimizar el impacto ambiental de una planta de incineración de residuos a energía en China.
Desplegados en colaboración con la Universidad de Hunan, una de las principales universidades chinas de investigación en ingeniería, y Hunan Qiaokang Bridge Health Intelligent Technology for Puxiang Bioenergy, los sensores LiDAR 3D de alta precisión de la serie M de Quanergy se aplicaron para escanear la superficie de las pilas de residuos de la planta incineradora y crear una imagen de nube de puntos 3D, con el fin de calcular con precisión el volumen de los residuos. La solución LiDAR de Quanergy ofrece una alta precisión líder en el sector, gracias a su resolución angular de 0,033 grados y una densidad de nube de puntos de hasta 1,3 millones de puntos por segundo.
Mediante datos precisos sobre el volumen, la planta de residuos puede estimar la densidad de los residuos y aplicar una lógica de estimación para determinar el valor calorífico. Por ejemplo, los residuos secos son menos densos y tienen mayor poder calorífico que los húmedos. Con estos datos tridimensionales tan completos y precisos, la planta de reciclaje puede dar prioridad a la quema de combustibles secos de alto valor calorífico y dar más tiempo a los residuos húmedos para que se sequen. Esto mejora la eficiencia global y reduce las emisiones de carbono.
"Los datos de los sensores LiDAR de Quanergy nos permiten generar conjuntos de datos digitales que luego podemos utilizar para optimizar y escalar el proceso de reciclaje de residuos en toda una ciudad y más allá", dijo el profesor Xiaogang Zhang, vicedecano de la Escuela de Ingeniería Eléctrica y de la Información de la Universidad de Hunan. "Una potente aplicación de IoT industrial, los datos de los sensores de Quanergy también permiten conocer el funcionamiento de la central eléctrica para supervisar, medir y predecir la cantidad de energía que se puede generar a partir de la incineración de residuos."
"Antes de LiDAR, no había manera de medir con precisión el volumen y la densidad de los residuos, puntos de datos críticos para la estimación precisa del valor calorífico", dijo Enzo Signore, CMO de Quanergy. "LiDAR 3D abre perspectivas claras y valiosas que antes eran inaccesibles en el mundo 2D, no sólo mejorando la eficiencia operativa, sino también haciendo el aire más limpio y saludable mediante la reducción de las emisiones."
Además de su precisión, los sensores LiDAR 3D de Quanergy son robustos y fiables, incluso en las duras condiciones de la planta incineradora, proporcionando más de 60.000 horas de tiempo medio entre fallos (MTBF). Los sensores pueden instalarse en cualquier entorno, interior o exterior, y ofrecen un rendimiento fiable independientemente de las condiciones de iluminación ambiental. Además, la solución puede ampliarse fácilmente, lo que aumenta su valor para la ciudad.
