Abstract: Waste has been a major environmental issue everywhere. Besides the waste we create at home school and other public places, there are also those from industries, farm and other sources. Generally waste could be liquid waste or solid waste, both of them could be hazardous to human, plant and animal life. The segregation, handling, transport and disposal of waste are to be properly managed to minimize the risk. Currently there is no system for segregation of dry, wet and metallic wastes at household level. Smart trash: smart system for waste segregation and monitoring is designed to sort the refuse into metallic, dry and wet waste. The proposed system is cheap, easy to use at households, schools, public places etc. and can be monitored effectively.
