The large human population and rapid urbanization lead to a significant amount of garbage that needs daily collection. Improper disposal of garbage in urban areas creates an unsanitary environment and degrades the environment. To address this issue, a Smart Waste Management System is proposed, using machine learning techniques to classify air quality levels and enhance waste management productivity. This system not only proves cost-effective but also improves the well-being of individuals residing near dustbins by providing constant monitoring and reporting of air quality to city authorities.
Massive human population, coupled with rapid urbanization, results in a substantial amount of garbage that requires daily collection. In urban areas, garbage often accumulates around dustbins without proper disposal at regular intervals, creating an unsanitary environment for humans, plants, and animals. This situation significantly degrades the environment. To address this problem, a Smart Waste Management System is introduced in this paper, employing machine learning techniques for air quality level classification. Furthermore, this system safeguards garbage collectors from severe health issues caused by inhaling harmful gases emitted from the waste. The proposed system not only proves cost-effective but also enhances waste management productivity by categorizing waste into three types: wet, dry, and metallic. Ultimately, by leveraging machine learning techniques, we can classify air quality levels and garbage weight into distinct categories. This system is beneficial for improving the well-being of individuals residing in close proximity to dustbins, as it enables constant monitoring and reporting of air quality to relevant city authorities.
