Abstract

In this research, waste management system is introduced to efficiently handle waste in large cities without the need for continuous manual monitoring. The system addresses the challenges take place with respect to unorganized and non-systematic waste collection by implementing an embedded Internet of Things (IoT) system that monitors individual dumpsters for deposited waste. The proposed solution includes an automated mechanism for segregating wet and dry waste, achieved through a mechanical setup that separates the waste into dedicated containers using sensors. Sensor is utilized to detect the presence of any type of waste, while a moisture sensor is employed for identifying wet waste. The system employs ultrasonic sensors at the top of each container to measure the distance, allowing for the quantification of waste volume. When one of the containers reaches its capacity, an alert message is automatically sent to the respective personnel.
