Moreover, Jinkai's intelligent rubbish recognition street sweeper system also features energy-saving characteristics. The system automatically adjusts wind energy speed based on the recognized types of rubbish, achieving efficient energy utilization. This intelligent adjustment effectively enhances operational efficiency while reducing energy consumption, avoiding unnecessary energy waste. Particularly, by intelligently adjusting wind energy speed, Jinkai's intelligent rubbish recognition street sweeper achieves energy savings during operation based on different types of rubbish, further reducing energy consumption. With its unique intelligent recognition patented technology, Jinkai's Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck significantly improves energy utilization efficiency during cleaning operations. It not only makes the cleaning process more efficient, reducing dependence on manual labour, but also effectively saves energy.

Specifically, the intelligent recognition system can automatically adjust the working parameters of the street sweeper based on the identification of different types of rubbish, dynamically adjusting the working mode of the sweeper to operate at optimal efficiency when cleaning different types of rubbish, thereby minimizing energy consumption to the greatest extent possible. Ordinary fuel-powered street sweepers on the market consume 18 gallons of fuel per vehicle per day, while a Jinkai Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck only consume 14.4 gallons of fuel per vehicle per day, saving 3.6 gallons of fuel consumption per vehicle per day, equivalent to a 20% reduction in fuel consumption. Considering there are approximately 200,000 ordinary street sweepers in China and around 500,000 worldwide, using Jinkai Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck could save approximately 720,000 gallons (approximately 17,000 barrels) of fuel per day globally, and about 1.8 million gallons (approximately 43,000 barrels) of fuel per day worldwide. Furthermore, according to statistics, the daily gasoline production of Ecuador's Sacha oil field is approximately 76,000 barrels, indicating that by using Jinkai Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck, the oil production equivalent of one day from Ecuador's Sacha oil field could be saved in just two days. These data clearly demonstrate the significant effects of Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck compared to conventional street sweepers in terms of energy savings and cost reduction while achieving equivalent cleaning effectiveness. This not only helps reduce the operating costs of cleaning operations but also reduces waste of energy resources, aligning with the environmental conservation concept of energy conservation and emission reduction. Therefore, the remarkable energy-saving effects of Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck not only reflect its strength in technological innovation but also demonstrate its active contribution to the path of sustainable development.

Improve the Quality of Air

The invention patent of Jinkai Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck involves the field of road sweeping vehicle technology, including the car body, chassis, water tank, spray system, dust reduction and disinfection exhaust system, vacuum system, and sewage recovery filtration system. Among them, the chassis is connected to the car body, the water tank is set inside the car body, the spray system is connected to the water tank and located below the chassis, the vacuum system is connected to the car body and located below the chassis, the dust reduction and disinfection exhaust system are set inside the vacuum system, and the sewage recovery filtration system is connected to the vacuum system. The vacuum system provides suction to suck up rubbish; the dust reduction and disinfection exhaust system is used for reducing dust and killing bacteria and odors in the rubbish; the spray system is used for spraying and washing the road surface; and the sewage recovery filtration system is used for filtering and treating sewage for recycling. Through the above structure, the effect of water spraying cleaning and dust reduction is achieved, adding to the functionality of the street sweeper.

Jinkai Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck achieves resource recycling and energy saving by reusing filtered clean water for road washing. During the cleaning process, the sweeper treats sewage through the filtration system, and then stores the filtered clean water in the water tank for tasks such as road washing. At the same time, Jinkai Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck also achieves air regeneration during water purification. This recycling practice effectively reduces the consumption of cleaning water resources and also reduces the demand for energy, thereby achieving the goal of energy conservation and emission reduction. Jinkai Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck makes positive contributions to the circular economy, particularly playing an important role in addressing air pollution and promoting sustainable development.

Improve the Quality of Water

During the operation of street sweepers, a large amount of sewage is generated, which may enter rivers and waterways through runoff during wet weather or flow into rivers and waterways through stormwater drains in some cities, causing adverse effects on the water environment.

Wastewater treatment is an important part of environmental protection work. Sewage contains feces, filth, sand, stones, grease, rubbish, organic matter, a large number of suspended solids, microorganisms, and other substances. If discharged directly, it will cause significant harm and pollution to the environment. Studies have found a link between disease, contaminated water, and filth (Webber & Kidwell-Ross, n.d.; Cleaning Towns and Streets - a History – ECJ, 2013). Water pollution poses a major threat to human health because the human body is composed of about 60% water, which is an essential component for survival. Fatal pathogens, bacteria, and viruses may be present in drinking water, leading to serious health consequences, including death. In addition, water pollution affects various organisms such as animals, bacteria, fungi, and plants, thereby disrupting ecosystems. This disruption may lead to a decrease in biodiversity, affecting climate change and human survival. Approximately 85% of plant species live in water and are easily affected by harmful effects of water pollution, including decreased oxygen levels (eutrophication) and ocean acidification. These impacts threaten marine organisms such as coral reefs and shellfish, which play a crucial role in absorbing carbon dioxide emissions.

Jinkai Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck adds a sewage disinfection and filtration box inside the vehicle, equipped with filtration and disinfection equipment. When the sweeper is in operation, road rubbish is sucked into the rubbish bin, and sewage is filtered and sterilized through the sewage filtration box located at the bottom of the car body. This system effectively filters out impurities in the sewage and thoroughly sterilizes harmful substances, achieving a sterilization rate of 99%. The cleaned water is then conveyed to the clean water tank for further road dust suppression tasks by the sweeper. This system greatly reduces the harm and pollution of sewage to the environment and reduces the occurrence of diseases. If humans come into contact with contaminated water, whether through swimming, drinking, or consuming contaminated fish products, they may experience discomfort. In some cases, contact with contaminated water may even be fatal (Nick, 2022). It also protects the balance of the ecological environment. For example, if sewage no longer flows into rivers, more small organisms will be introduced into the food chain, helping to purify the water (Ranger Kidwell-Ross, 2021).

Jinkai Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck becomes another model of the circular economy by comprehensively applying sewage treatment principles. It effectively solves the adverse effects of large amounts of sewage generated during the operation of street sweepers on the water environment. The design and operation mechanism of this system not only effectively reduce the pollution and harm of sewage to the water environment but also prevent sewage from flowing into rivers and waterways, thus protecting the integrity and stability of the water ecosystem, leading to increasingly better water quality.

Minimize Dust and Pollen Pollution

Jinkai's Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck proposes a solution to the problem of lack of rainfall during the summer road cleaning season through its patented dust (dust and pollen) filtration system. This technology adds a filter box inside the Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck and has a quantitatively high dust removal liquid inside the filter box. This dust removal liquid is used to treat the dust suction pipe of the dust suction device, with the air outlet partially submerged in the dust removal liquid, while also having a covered dust collection net. During the operation of the Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck, roadside rubbish is temporarily stored in the rubbish bin through the dust suction port. At the same time, mixed high-pressure air with (dust and pollen) passes through the air outlet, splashing the water droplets in the dust removal liquid, causing the water droplets to adhere to the dust on the dust collection net and precipitate. Then, all these particulate matters are dissolved into the circulating water tank through water circulation. This system effectively filters dust and pollen, purifying the air and reducing air pollution, thereby having an important and beneficial impact on human health.

Jinkai's dust (dust and pollen) filtration system captures fine particles efficiently and does not release them into the environment during cleaning tasks, controlling the distribution of dust in the atmosphere, reducing dust accumulation, and reducing the likelihood of such problems occurring (Nick, 2022). After rigorous testing by professional testing agencies, the results show that its filtration interception rate exceeds 98%. This high-efficiency filtration performance indicates that Jinkai's dust filtration system can effectively capture and filter dust and pollen particles in the air, thereby improving air quality and protecting users' health.

While addressing the difficulties in summer road cleaning, Jinkai's Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck actively practices the concept of a circular economy and has become a leader in the circular economy industry. This technology adopts a unique dust filtration system, including filter boxes, dust removal liquids, and dust suction devices as component parts. The design of the filter box and dust removal liquid allows for the effective capture and separation of pollutants such as dust and pollen, achieving centralized pollutant treatment. The dust removal liquid dissolves these particles into the circulating water tank through water circulation, realizing the recycling of water resources. In addition, the technology employs an efficient filtration system, which also plays an important role in energy conservation and emission reduction, reducing reliance on fossil energy and energy consumption. Meanwhile, the well-designed filtration system in the cleaning machine technology has a long service life and reliability, helping to reduce resource waste caused by equipment failure or upgrading. Through these measures, Jinkai's Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck not only achieves the recycling of resources while solving environmental problems but also sets a good example in the field of circular economy, becoming a leader and pioneer in the industry. Its systematic design concept and sustainable development strategy have a wide-ranging influence and demonstration effect in the field of circular economy.

Minimize Noise Pollution

Jinkai's Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck's noise reduction and energy-saving technology is an innovative solution to the noise problem generated by cleaning machines during operation. This technology relies mainly on Jinkai's unique rubbish recognition system, which can accurately identify and classify various types of rubbish. Through the intelligent operation control system, the cleaning machine can automatically adjust its operation mode and working parameters based on the feedback information from the rubbish recognition system, avoiding unnecessary mechanical operations and the operation of moving parts, reducing the noise generated by mechanical friction and vibration. Meanwhile, Jinkai's Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck adopts shock absorption and sound insulation measures in its design. By optimizing the mechanical structure and using vibration reduction materials, it effectively reduces the conduction and diffusion of mechanical vibration to the surrounding environment, thereby reducing the radiation of noise. In addition, Jinkai has optimized the acoustic design of its Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck, using sound-absorbing materials, sound insulation covers, and other technical means to effectively control the energy loss of noise during propagation, reducing the impact of noise on the surrounding environment and personnel.

Therefore, Jinkai's Intelligent Identification Sweeper Truck's noise reduction and energy-saving technology, through the application of rubbish recognition system and intelligent operation control, as well as the optimization of mechanical vibration and acoustic design, effectively reduces the noise generated by ordinary cleaning machines during the operation process, improving the working environment, enhancing operational efficiency, and benefiting the protection of the surrounding environment and personnel's health.
