Team Metaphor SIH1575 Smart Dustbin Demo

Environmental sanitation, and more so safe disposal of waste, continues to be a major concern across the world, especially in the developing nations where urbanization and inadequate adequate infrastructural development has enhanced increased use of landfills and GHG particularly methane. As for India, for instance, rapid population growth coupled with an unfolding economic growth means that a large amount of waste is being produced but the waste management systems are not evolving necessarily at a similar rate. The primary objectives are currently focused on drastic minimization of landfill disposal, enhancement of recycling efficiency, and minimization of negative effects of inadequate waste management on human health and the environment.

New, local, and technological intervention is the key current need. Net Zero Waste Communities therefore embrace Accountability on waste Collection, Recycling and converting waste to wealth for instance through the torrefaction of MSW Pellets, which is the process of converting waste to Bio energy. Also, *Landfill Gas (LFG) Collection and Treatment m; methane’s use as a renewable energy porn can greatly lower emissions.

Other related technologies that improve waste management include: sensor-equipped dustbins and the **eConnect app. These tools enhance collection procedures by observing the fill levels in real time and afford citizens the ability to be involved in the waste management process, while municipalites gain more control. In combination, these approaches lead to the construction of cleaner, more efficient, lighter on the environment urban spaces.
