Early fire detection for waste and recycling facilities
Minimize fire risk in challenging environments
Waste and recycling facilities handle large volumes of material that can overheat and ignite if potential risks are not detected in time. Our AI-powered thermal camera solutions identify temperature anomalies before smoke or flames appear. The system monitors your facility in real time and analyses every frame to distinguish harmless heat sources from genuine fire risks. The result is reliable, proactive fire protection that minimizes false alarms while safeguarding people, equipment, and the environment.
Termisk EFD
Safer working environment
Early fire detection and proactive alerts help protect both people and equipment.
Cost efficiency
Prevents costly damage and reduces the need for emergency response and repairs.
Operational reliability
Detects temperature anomalies before smoke or flames appear, reducing the risk of unplanned downtime and prolonged interruptions.
98 %
of fires at waste and recycling facilities are caused by incorrectly disposed lithium batteries. When lithium batteries end up in the waste stream and are damaged, for example during shredding, they can short-circuit and even explode. This sudden reaction can ignite surrounding materials and quickly develop into a fire with serious consequences for both operations and safety. Termisk EFD detects the temperature increase the moment it occurs. The system continuously monitors critical areas in real time and immediately alerts operators to temperature changes, enabling rapid response before a fire can spread.
The system analyses every frame in real time to minimize false alarms. Powered by artificial intelligence, the software distinguishes normal operational activity from genuine fire risks, ensuring that alerts are triggered only when action is required.
The system filters out harmless heat sources, such as:
Vehicles
Machinery
Personnel
Sun reflection
Minimized false alarms
EFD-bunker
Early fire detection for waste bunkers
The temperature inside the waste bunker is continuously monitored in real time, allowing areas with elevated temperatures to be identified quickly. The system detects critical temperature changes and immediately triggers an alert, enabling operators to take action before a fire has the chance to develop.
