Abstract :
In many places, the Municipal garbage bins are overflowing and they are not cleaned at proper time. As a result of which the consequences are severe. It includes overflow of garbage which results in land pollution, spread of diseases, also it creates unhygienic conditions for people, and ugliness to that place. There needs to be system that gives prior information of the filling of the bin that alerts the municipality so that they can clean the bin on time and safeguard the environment. To avoid all such situations we intend to propose a solution for this problem “Smart Garbage Bin”, which will alarm and inform the authorized person when the garbage bin is about to fill. Now, Instead of dumping the waste on land fill area, we propose a method to separate the 5 types of plastic resins (which are not biodegradable) by using NIR spectroscopy and use the rest of biodegradable waste to produce biogas.
