IoT enabled dustbins

Nowadays, waste management is one of the problems on which million of dollars are spent worldwide. the key issue in waste management is waste collection and sorting. Also, one of the issues in the waste management is that the garbage bin at public places gets overflowed in advance before the commencement of the next cleaning process. This, in turn, leads to various hazards such as bad odor & ugliness to that place which may be the root cause for the spread of various diseases. To tackle this problem, we propose the IOT enabled dustbins in this paper. these bins, use RFID tags for tracking of the wastes linked with a web-based online system and according to the weight of waste added, host server calculates the points and updates in the database of virtual wallet. Also, it measures the fullness of the dustbins and updates the status of each dustbin on the municipal server. It notifies them when the dustbin is full and provides the shortest route to empty all the dustbins based on the capacity of the municipal waste loading vehicles. The Capacity of trucks is calculated and updated each time according to the number of dustbins serviced by the trucks, as soon as it completes a route assigned to it. Furthermore, the user is assisted in material waste classification through our application and also the smart bin knows its content and can report back to the rest of the recycling chain about its contents. Our system, target two crucial problems, cost efficiency in waste sorting and waste collection processes.
