On July 15, the 2007 China Environmental Protection Industry Summit Forum was held in Beijing with the theme of "Looking Back and Looking Forward: Environmental Protection Industry Supports Green Development". One of the themes of the forum dialogue is "The Next Explosive Point: Integrating the Environmental Protection Industry into the Construction of Smart Cities". When environmental protection and urban construction are combined, sanitation has become an indispensable industry.

In the era of "Internet +", the use of the Internet has penetrated into all aspects of education, trade, medical care and so on. The industry of environmental sanitation seems to be an isolated island that has not yet landed on the Internet. By the end of 2015, the Intelligent Sanitation Committee of China Urban Environmental Health Association has been established. The Committee aims to realize the intelligent upgrading of the environmental sanitation industry, and is mainly responsible for the organization and development of the "Internet + sanitation" related business activities.
