Abstract
Water is the most essential natural resource for human survival. Population explosion, industrialization, and technological advancement are responsible for generating solid, liquid, and gaseous waste that indiscriminately pollutes the environment. In particular, the solid waste when gets into water resource undergo decay which becomes a source of breeding of diseases causing mosquitoes that spread a number of diseases like malaria, dengue fever, chikungunya, brain fever, etc. The accumulated solids are blocking the flow of water as well as sewage. Nearly 40 million liters of wastewater are released into rivers and water bodies every day, but only a small fraction of it is properly treated. Water pollution causes diseases like Bronchitis, Tuberculosis, Asthma, Nausea, Typhoid, Diarrhea, etc., and it causes to kills more than 1.5 Indian children every year. To minimize and control water pollution, prevention of solid entering into the waterbody and the removal of the solid waste which is already present in the waterbody are important migrative actions. In the present investigation, an attempt is made to replace the manual scavenging of solid waste from waterbodies by the automated machine. The main advantage of the Automatic Scavenging Machine is to collects the trash from the water surface by conveyer, crushes it by shredder, and stores them in the trash storage tank for proper disposal. It stores large amounts of trash and cleans the solid waste within a few minutes. Hence the water becomes less contaminated and less harmful to humans and the environment.
