Smart Waste Management.

It is the responsibility of every individual to ensure the cleanliness and sustainability of the environment. We have created a waste management model that utilizes various sensors such as soil moisture sensors, ultrasonic sensors, and inductive proximity sensors, along with a conveyor belt, to automate the process of waste segregation. The ultrasonic sensor is used to detect dry waste based on its distance from the sensor, while the soil moisture sensor is employed to identify wet waste by measuring the moisture content in the waste. The inductive proximity sensor plays a crucial role in identifying metal waste by detecting any metallic objects present in the waste stream. The entire system is designed to streamline the waste separation process, thereby minimizing the need for manual sorting and enhancing overall efficiency. By integrating these sensors with the conveyor belt mechanism, the system enables real-time waste detection and segregation, thereby optimizing waste management operations. The proposed intelligent waste management system offers numerous advantages, including enhanced precision in waste categorization, reduced human errors, increased efficiency in waste collection, and the potential for recycling and resource recovery.
