2026 Shanghai International Environmental Sanitation Technology and Equipment Exhibition

Currently, the rapid urbanization process around the world poses challenges to urban governance, including resource scarcity, ecological pollution, and traffic congestion. To address these issues, digital and intelligent technologies have become key forces in promoting sustainable urban development. As one of China's most vibrant cities, Shanghai is committed to building smart cities and actively exploring the digital transformation in urban sanitation.

The Shanghai International Environmental Sanitation Technology and Equipment Exhibition is Asia's leading professional expo in the sanitation industry, focusing on innovations in sanitation equipment, smart sanitation solutions, and sustainable development technologies. It aims to create a high-end platform for global technical exchange, trade cooperation, and policy discussions in the sanitation sector. The exhibition gathers leading enterprises, research institutions, and industry experts from both domestic and international markets, showcasing cutting-edge technologies and equipment across the entire industrial chain from road cleaning and waste collection to resource utilization, and supporting the smart and low-carbon upgrade of urban environmental management.

During the event, several forums will be held, including:
Forum 1: Conference on Smart Sanitation and Autonomous Cleaning Technologies
Forum 2: Summit on New Energy Sanitation Vehicle Operation and Safety Management
Forum 3: Forum on Building “Waste-Free Cities” and Upgrading Waste Processing Facilities
Forum 4: Conference on High-Quality Development in the Sanitation Industry and Innovation in Market-Oriented Models

The exhibition comprehensively covers the entire chain from front-end street cleaning, mid-end waste collection to end waste treatment, including sanitation equipment, waste classification and treatment technology, solid waste resource utilization, smart sanitation digital platforms, and public health emergency systems. Exhibited vehicles and equipment include:
- Road cleaning equipment: new energy sweepers, autonomous cleaning vehicles, high-pressure cleaning vehicles, etc.
- Waste collection vehicles: smart compression garbage trucks, dedicated food waste collection vehicles, large-capacity transfer vehicles, etc.
- Specialized operation equipment: snow removal vehicles, guardrail cleaning vehicles, tunnel cleaning robots, etc.

In terms of waste classification and treatment technology, showcased items include:
- Smart classification systems: AI-recognized trash bins, intelligent recycling stations, and waste classification robots
- Recyclable material processing: plastic sorting equipment, waste paper balers, and metal recycling production lines.

For solid waste treatment and resource utilization, the exhibition will showcase:
- Efficient low-emission incinerators and flue gas purification systems
- Anti-seepage materials and leachate membrane treatment technologies
- Crushing and screening equipment and recycled aggregate application solutions.

Smart sanitation and digital management features IoT applications such as trash bin overflow monitoring and GPS dispatch systems for sanitation vehicles, as well as AI and big data tools including smart inspection drones and AI assessment platforms for sanitation work quality. New energy solutions like solar-powered garbage compression stations and hydrogen energy sanitation vehicle technologies will also be highlighted.

In regard to public health and emergency sanitation, the exhibition will introduce disinfection and sterilization equipment such as unmanned disinfection vehicles and smart spraying systems, as well as innovative technologies for public sanitation facilities like intelligent sensing toilets and deodorizing sterilization systems, all aimed at enhancing urban environmental standards and health levels.
