IoT Based Smart Segregation Chamber for the Recovery of Metals from E-waste

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Electronic garbage, or "e-waste," is a major problem in today's technologically advanced world due to the extensive usage of electronic gadgets. Pakistan is a country where the problem is extremely prevalent, and Karachi is among the most impacted cities. Severe environmental and health dangers arise from improper disposal of e-waste, and the situation is made worse by the region's current, frequently insufficient and unregulated recycling procedures. A cutting-edge technology has been proposed that ensures the safe handling and processing of e-waste to address this problem. This creative solution effectively separates valuable metals from electronic waste with sorting accuracy of 95% and shows the parameters like conveyor motor temperature and current for safe handling of the conveyor system through IoT platform and monitoring.
