Abstract

In today’s world, the growth of population is increasing rapidly. As population increases the new problems are also generated. Advanced technology can solve these problems. Waste management is a big concern of today’s world. Traditional methods are failing now. Therefore, the problem of waste management also can be solved with the help of new technologies. This waste management can be done smartly with the help of a technology IoT. The main objective of this system is to create a solution for smart waste management which is smart dustbin. As waste is collected by municipal employees from the dustbins, but tracking the waste level manually in dustbin is very difficult and costly. In this case, when bin is filled, waste comes out from the bin and becomes the reason of serious health hazard to the surrounding environment. Smart dustbin provides the facility to track the status of bin waste. It is connected to the Internet; therefore, real-time information of dustbin can be received.
