Objective
The main aim of this project is to implement the best Garbage Management using IOT sensors and mobile technology.
Abstract
The smart bin containers are equipped with ultrasonic, gas and fire sensors. The level sensor inside the smart dustbin provides the collection team with real-time information about fill level through the app, and helps to decide when and where to prioritize the collection. The flame sensor can alert the supervision team if incandescent waste is deposited through which the trash is set on fire. The gas sensor detects harmful gases like methane that are present in a dustbin. The garbage bin has GPS tracker that identifies the location of the bin. When the bin is about to overflow the notification of the location of the bin will be processed in the application. The nearest garbage collecting vehicle will receive notification about the situation. It will allow more flexibility in managing garbage locations. In some cases, the trash may be overflowing in the area where there are no bins or no proper maintenance of trash. In such a situation, citizen takes a picture and report through the app. The trash collector will be notified through the location embedded in the picture. This project helps to optimize waste collection and allows trash collector to deal and take necessary action immediately. The app allows to lodge complaint if no action taken, which will be monitored by the municipal corporation.
Proposed System
In this project, we propose a system (hardware, software and communications) intended to improve waste management and prevent hazardous wastes from exploiting the soil and environment and enable citizens to participate. This system follows an IoT based approach using smart bins that integrate several sensors such as ultrasonic, gas and fire sensors to supervise the state of the trash. Data is stored and processed through a mobile application which provides information about where trash can be found and collected. Notification alerts including the location will be sent to the nearest garbage collector truck if the waste exceeds threshold level through mobile application. Citizens can make use of this application to capture and upload pictures of unusual waste dumps apart from the garbage bins. The location of the waste dump will be embedded in the picture that the user takes and sent to the nearest garbage collector trucks to take necessary action.
