Smart Waste Segregation and Monitoring System Using Iot

Abstract

Due to urbanization and the growth of the human population, waste production has been rising. Cities with overflowing trash cans have unsanitary conditions. This has an adverse effect on the environment, so an "Automatic Waste Segregator" was developed to lessen the workload for ragpickers because doing so by hand puts workers' health at risk. Wet, dry, and metallic waste are divided into three categories under the suggested system. This newly created technique makes garbage management profitable in addition to being cost-effective. The appropriate sensors identify each type of garbage, which is then separated into the bins that are allotted to it. Information about the amount of waste disposed of is updated on the server on a regular basis.
