PyroPure® for Apartment Blocks
Cost effective and sustainable waste management in multi occupational apartment blocks can be particularly challenging. There are numerous considerations:
- Residents may have to walk some distance to communal recycling bin areas
- There is often a high annual turnover of residents so it is difficult for recycling campaigns to have a widespread impact
- Infrequent or missed collections can mean communal waste chambers overflowing quickly and causing an unsightly hygiene risk
- In crowded high rise estates, it is often difficult to get large waste trucks to safely manoeuvre in the tight spaces
With these conditions in mind, the PyroPure® designed for apartment buildings provides an ideal solution that can be included in a new build design or can fit into the pre-existing infrastructure. The system is particularly designed for apartment blocks with a chute system where residents deposit waste into a chute opening on every floor and the waste is fed down into a waste chamber at the bottom of the building.
The system incorporates a waste handling system that automatically loads the PyroPure® units and ensures amounts up to 150 kg per day can easily be destroyed.
Extensive studies on our Apartment Unit concept have been undertaken and a full trial of the system in the London Borough of Wandsworth. See Case Studies section.
