Garbage Monitoring System using IOT
Abstract
We are living in an age where tasks and systems are fusing together with the power of IOT to have a more efficient system of working and to execute jobs quickly! With all the power at our finger tips this is what we have come up with. The Internet of Things (IOT) shall be able to incorporate transparently and seamlessly a large number of different systems, while providing data for millions of people to use and capitalize. Now a days, the major problems that world is facing today is waste management. Most of the times it is seen that the waste is been spilled over the bins and lying nearby. This lead to spreading of some deadly diseases in the surrounding environment. Also, people find it difficult to walk beside with it. All these problems are due to lack of coordination and communication among the garbage team members. Also the study has revealed that the waste management can be far more efficient if the garbage is segregated at source and then disposed in dumping grounds separately. Thus, there is a big need to have a proper waste management. Considering the above issues, this project proposes system, which will try to reduce these problems to a greater extent. The fundamental purpose of a garbage level monitoring system is to help the municipal services to pick the trash at the right time before a garbage bin overflows and cause discomfort to general public using IOT. This data related to bin level is sent to a server over internet where the system processes the real time data and raises alerts to manage the collection of Waste. Gas sensor is also used to sense the gas and again send data to the municipal authority. E.g. suppose people through lead acid battery in the dustbin and if battery will destroy then some gas will be leak. So gas sensor will sense these gases and send data to the municipal authority. Fire sensor will also use in this system. If there is fire in the garbage, then fire will sense by the fire sensor, and again message will send to municipal. The proposed system also takes care of long time goal of identifying the pattern of waste generation at various localities. This data collected by the system can be used to further plan the effective measures to reduce the waste mismanagement and to maintain cleaner environment.
