An energy efficient waste collection, segregation, and processing of Municipal Solid Waste in urban area using WSN

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) solutions have been used to tackle several management challenges in a variety of domains, including the home, environment, industry, and commercial establishments. WSN may also be used in the Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) field also for efficient waste collection, segregation, and processing. In this article, we have put forth a fresh approach in an effort to create an urban area waste management system that is both effective and energy-efficient. This model has three layers: Layers-l and Layer-2 each have a twin bin deployed with a sensor node to monitor the collection of dry and wet waste separately and to determine if the dustbin is full or not. The sensor node will submit a request for data collection with a time window before the dustbin gets full to the Layer-3 or Base station (B.S), where every request will be received and based on the request reply will provide. Layers 1 and Layer-2 will notify to B.S. if mixed waste is dumped into the dustbin. Layer-3 will perform as supervisor layer and everything will be monitored and every request will be replied by this layer. Layer-3 will consists of operator, safaikarmis, driver, vehicle, scientific landfill and processing plants of MSW. The dustbin data are also collected in Layers 1 and 2 using an energy-efficient sensing technique. By using WSN, the system can reduce energy consumption, operating expenses, and enhance environmental quality.
