Abstract
Waste management is a critical issue for cities around the world, and Parakou City in Benin is no exception. In this article, we propose an innovative solution to address the challenges of waste collection and management in urban areas. Our approach utilizes the Internet of Things (IoT) technology to create an efficient Waste Collection Management System tailored specifically for Parakou. The core of our system lies in equipping waste bins with sensors capable of detecting their filling levels. These sensors continuously monitor the status of each bin, and when a bin reaches its capacity, the system triggers an alert. This real-time data collection ensures that waste collection resources are deployed only when needed, optimizing operational efficiency and reducing unnecessary costs. The case study conducted in Parakou City highlights the significance of our IoT-based approach. Parakou faces unique challenges in waste management due to its urban landscape and growing population. With limited resources, it becomes essential to maximize the efficiency of waste collection operations. By implementing our system in Parakou, we aim to demonstrate how technology can be harnessed to tackle these challenges effectively.
