Abstract : Internet of Things (IoT) based smart devices are the core elements for any smart environment. The sensors and actuators make the life easier when they are connected to one another and to the Internet. The Smart city and ‘Swach Bharath Abhiyan’ projects introduced by the Government of India tried to promote clean and hygienic Environment. The constant growth of population, industrialization and urbanization increase the unorganized manner of dumping the solid waste in landfills. Smart waste management is the must in all countries due to the voluminous generation of solid waste. In this paper, a methodology for monitoring the dustbins in smart cities, household or organization is proposed. The dustbins are monitored very often to check the garbage level. Whenever the dustbins reach maximum level, alert will be sent to the corresponding authorities with the bin details to dispose the waste. Additionally, the gas sensors in the dustbins detect the bad smell and alert when it reaches the threshold level though the garbage level will not reach the dustbin’s maximum capacity. The areas which require emptying the dustbins very often are also identified. Large-scale implementation of the system will promote a clean and hygienic environment.
? When the garbage level exceeds the threshold, the ultrasonic sensor will send an alert to the block in-charge along with the bin-id.
? It is suggested to place more dustbins in the areas where the frequency is high.
? The system involves number of sensors and other hardware components. Implementing the system on a broad level will require lot of technical and financial investment.
? This paper suggests a methodology for a simple and easy to use garbage monitoring system which monitors the dustbins of an organization and gives alert notifications to the waste management department to take necessary actions to dispose the waste.
? The Internet of Things (IoT) is a boon to solve this ever growing problem. To make a clean atmosphere, IoT based automated process in waste management is necessary.
? IoT makes the real-world objects to communicate each other and also connect to the global network using various protocols and standards.
? The connectivity is checked and the problems are rectified.
? Cleanliness is one of the important issues in the modern society.
? To understand the International and National issues related to waste management system, the related recent works for waste management system using IoT were studied and analysed.
• This project deals with the waste management systems in household or institution level through which it can promote clean city.
• The garbage level and bad smell level of all the dustbins are monitored, if it exceeds the threshold level, then the block in-charge who manages the particular area will be notified to take necessary actions with the block name and bin-id of the dustbin.
• Whenever the block in-charge receives notification, the message will be automatically forwarded to the personnel who are responsible for emptying the smart bin.
• If the trash is not treated then the warning message will be sent to the cleanliness administrator of the system.
? An IR (Infrared) sensor, a moisture sensor and a metal sensor were used to detect and identify various types of waste respectively.
? Even though many efforts have been taken to handle the trash efficiently, it is a challenging dispute for all countries.
? The authors used Proteus tool to simulate their research idea to categorize the metallic and non-metallic waste efficiently. There is no real garbage segregation in their work.
? Load sensors were used to increase the efficiency of the level of garbage whereas moisture sensor was used to segregate the wastes.
? To automate the waste management process efficiently.
? Moisture and IR sensors were used to distinguish the dry and wet waste.
