Abstract: Waste Management is the pervasive problem. Nowadays and rising continuously with rise in urbanization. Waste is always the mixture of different types of material. The main goal of this project is to design and develop a sorting system that is portable and also sorts the waste automatically. It’s an eco-friendly automatic system. With the Proliferation of Internet of Things (IOT) Devices as Such as Smart phones and Sensors, this Project describes the effective management of solid waste using embedded system. The solar panel and H-bridge are used by the motor to make the system portable. The moving system stops when a non-living obstacle arrives and takes a turn. Otherwise gets the inputs from the waste dumped by the person which is detected by the sensor. The sensor sends a signal to micro-controller where it decides the type of waste (biodegradable and nonbiodegradable) and separates it automatically and moves forward. Here the IOT module is used to control and monitor the waste. The system consist of mobile app which receives a message when the dustbin is full (3kg) makes the system to alert and the information is sent to the authority who own the and it resend the meesge to the bin for automatic disposal to the dump site. It even includes database of wastage collection on the particular day.
