Research Progress on the Digital Transformation in the Process of Building "Zero-waste Cities"
Journal: Architecture Engineering and Science DOI: 10.32629/aes.v6i3.4356
Abstract
Carrying out the construction of "Zero-waste Cities" is an important measure for building a Beautiful China. Governing waste through digitalization is of great significance to advancing the construction of Zero-waste Cities in China. This paper analyzes and summarizes the application progress of digital technologies in four major sectors: industry, agriculture, residential life, and transportation. It systematically summarizes the significance of digital empowerment in building Zero-waste Cities, and offers recommendations from three aspects: industrial structure upgrading, new models of environmental protection, and technological empowerment, providing a reference for the development of digital technologies in the process of building Zero-waste Cities.
