Abstract:

Rapid increase in volume and types of solid and hazardous waste due to continuous economic growth, urbanization and industrialization, is becoming a burgeoning problem for national and local governments to ensure effective and sustainable management of waste. In India about 60 million tons of waste is being generated every year. Thus we have proposed a cost effective “Waste disposal segregator” for proper management of waste. In the proposed system garbage will be placed into conveyor belt which is used to move waste from one place to another then the capacitive proximity sensor detects the non degradable waste and send a command to servomotor which will push the waste in 90 degree rotation where the embedded c program will be dumped into arduino board for detection of sensor by dielectric constant and servo motor by time delay .this will capably help to segregate non degradable waste which can be used for recycling and reuse.
