Sensor unit for waste management: A better method for frequent data updating system

摘要

The paper was proposed to design an electronic system, in order to provide a solution to irregular waste disposal system. The designed system makes use of biosensor sensor, weight sensor and height sensor to detect overflow of the waste in the dust bin and the extent of pollution caused by unwanted toxic gases from the bin. These sensors are further fed to the controller which would help the GSM module to send the notification to the respective authority regarding the status of the bin. Objective of the paper is to provide a solution for the waste management system. The technology which are suggested in this paper, achieved effective waste management system where sensors unit are used for sensing, microcontroller for controlling and for communication we have used GSM module. Finally for operating the system it requires power for that we have used solar energy system.
