Recyclable Plastic Bottles Deposit and Refund System (RPBDRS)

摘要

There are numerous elements or factors which pollute the nature and the environment. Among these factors, plastic or, more specifically, plastic bottles are one of the most significant factors. Hence, through this paper, we intend to talk about a machine which can help in reducing the exponential increase of plastic contamination. This works by depositing the plastic containers at the machine inlet. Then the machine will evaluate several parameters about the bottle through an array of sophisticated sensors. After the evaluation, if the bottle turns out to be of plastic, the machine will provide feedback, in the form of reward which, in turns, will encourage the general people to use it. Furthermore, the framework has a dual power system, one of which is grid-tied while the other one is solar powered. This machine also has a Global Positioning System (GPS) that helps people to find and use it. A remote (cloud Server) observation system for device host is also in place.
