Abstract

Abstract: A growing amount of medical waste needs to be physically segregated. We are recommending a medical waste segregation device for it. The primary goal of this project is to suggest the segregation of waste in municipal offices of India, where the majority of debris is separated using rag pickers which primarily separate the trash from hospitals, which are harmful and dangerous containers made up of toxic metals, by hand. Unfavourable linger leads to health properties such as tuberculosis, tumour, and poisoning metals, which may result in a lower standard of living, decreased longevity, and other side effects. An automated medical waste segregation device is being offered to solve this issue. In medical facilities like hospitals and clinics, this is helpful. India generates 62 million metric tons of waste each year, of which 45 million are disposed of in ways that are dangerous to the environment and human health. Waste management must be effective in intelligent cities. The study proposes an Internet of Things (IoT)-based garbage system that separates waste from various streams, including wet and dry, plastic, paper, metal, and glass. Establish a management system that will improve the chances of recovery and subsequent recycling. The process is simple to control because the system uses an Arduino microcontroller. This separation system's phases include an infrared sensor, an inductive proximity sensor, a raindrop sensor, a photoelectric sensor, and a separation bin. The sensor on each piece of waste detects it and directs it to a specific container for additional processing. The isolated data status will be available in the cloud for monitoring and management
