At GRECO 2025, inventions and innovations applying Industry 4.0 technologies were introduced as breakthrough solutions that contribute to helping Ho Chi Minh City realize its Net Zero 2050 goal. These technologies not only focus on treatment and emission reduction, but also aim to fundamentally transform how businesses operate, use resources, and control environmental impacts.
Several notable innovations showcased include:
• Smart recycling technology using AI to sort waste, optimize recycling rates, and reduce landfill volume.
• AI-controlled wastewater treatment systems that monitor, analyze, and automatically adjust parameters to improve treatment efficiency and reduce operating costs.
• Energy-optimized production lines equipped with IoT sensors and machine learning algorithms, enabling businesses to lower electricity consumption and reduce CO₂ emissions directly during manufacturing processes.
• Automated robots supporting green production, reducing material usage, minimizing errors, and increasing precision.
• Real-time carbon emission forecasting models, enabling businesses to track emissions, make rapid decisions, and comply with new environmental standards.
These innovations not only help businesses reduce emissions, cut costs, and increase production efficiency, but also build a foundation for the city’s green technology ecosystem to grow strongly. Through GRECO 2025, Ho Chi Minh City aims to promote the adoption of Industry 4.0 technologies across society, gradually moving toward a circular, green, and sustainable economy aligned with the Net Zero 2050 vision.
