IoT Based E-Waste Management: Towards a Sustainable Environment

An evolving field that blends technology and environmental sustainability is Internet of Things (IoT)-based smart e-waste management. The IoT is a paradigm shift that uses linked devices and sensors to collect real-time data and make e-waste management procedures more effective and sustainable. The main elements and uses of IoT in managing e-waste are discussed in this article, including inventory management, data analytics. E-waste collection bins and containers can be monitored using IoT-enabled sensors and devices, resulting in optimised collection routes and decreased operational costs. RFID tags and sensors provide more effective inventory management by ensuring accountability and traceability throughout the whole e-waste supply chain. Real-time data analytics help manufacturers create more environmentally friendly goods by providing useful insights into the patterns of e-waste generation.
