Abstract

Nowadays all types of garbage are dumped into the dustbin at the buildings (houses), hospitals etc., Hence it is difficult to segregate it. To avoid all such problems, we are going to implement a project where segregation of wet, dry, plastics and metallic wastes automatically using automated smart dust bin and afterwards signal is sent to the Mobile phones. The automated smart dust bin has several features and the main feature of it is to separate the waste automatically. The bin will have four compartments for the segregation of the wastes: for plastic waste, for wet waste, for dry waste and finally for the metallic wastes. Apart from this the bin will have motor for the rotation of the bin. This project makes it hands-free and evidently more hygienic method of separation. The bin will also notify about the amount of wastes filled through an LED. The bin will also alert by sending a message to phone to tell that it is time to throw the garbage. This idea will help us to dispose the waste in a hygienic manner. This project mainly concentrates on domestic wastes whose value is unrecognized since people do not spend time in separating the wastes. Instead of sending them to municipal corporation, waste can be sent directly for recycling if waste is separated at household level.
