AI applied to construction & demolition waste recycling
Plants that manage construction and demolition (C&D) waste operate under an environmental authorization that depends on defensible traceability: every incoming truck must stay linked, with no gaps, to its final destination (recycled aggregate sold or authorized landfill). Today that traceability runs on paper, spreadsheets and human memory.
This page gathers iLEAN's real use cases for this sub-sector: from photographing the intake form at the scale to the audit-ready case file that makes any inspection painless. Each case solves a concrete operational problem with the IRIS architecture (Connect + Edge + Agents), with conservative impact figures always marked as estimate to validate.
