IoT-Based Application for Real-Time Monitoring and Segregation of Solid Waste in Urban and Municipal Environments

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Conventional waste management systems are unable to cope with fast-paced urbanization, resulting in over flowing garbage cans and mounting expenditure. With the inclusion of wireless modules and ultrasonic sensors, an IoT-based smart dustbin management system driven by Arduino can efficiently track the fill levels of bins. Authorities are notified when bins are full, allowing for timely collection and minimizing fuel usage. A servo motor prevents unauthorized dumping and facilitates waste separation. The YOLO algorithm sorts the waste in real time, routing it to correct compartment. The system sends information to a cloud dashboard, maximizing recycling processes and collection schedules for a smarter and more efficient waste management solution.
