N2  - In recent years, there has been a constant need to automate simple everyday operations and
activities for improvement, efficiency, and advancement. One of the activities is waste
management which is a very crucial everyday operation to avoid pollution and ensure efficient
means of disposal. This study aims to develop a smart waste management system to identify and
prepare user, system software, and hardware requirements, identify the waste management system
protocols and procedures, system design specification, testing, and implementation of the
software.This project covers all fields related to waste management, automation, software, and
hardware development as well as wired and wireless sensor networks. This project provides
solutions and automation to the traditional waste disposal methods as well as detection sensors.
The main purpose is to develop a smart waste bin system that accepts data generated from it and
transmits information using Wi-Fi and sensor devices through email. And also, to detect if the bin
is full notify the necessary recipients and also detects the type of waste material in the bin. This
project involves the use of Arduino Integrated development environment as well as hardware. All
these operations are displayed on a web interface for user interaction which can be integrated on a
mobile phone.Limitations include storage space capacity, user training on software use, shortrange detection signal, and also cost of resources and time constraints. Future recommendations
include mobile and web-based applications as well as an increase of storage capacity and more
task automation to improve efficiency.
