Automatic Medical Waste Segregation System by Using Sensors

EasyChair Preprint 3615

Abstract

In India, the collection of medical waste is becoming an issue. Unwanted dumping of waste on outskirts of towns and cities creates nerdy and these overflowing landfills are impossible to reclaim. In the existing system, the manual effort has been needed so it may cause chronic disease to the person involved. Developing a mechanized system to save the lives of many people and making the world a cleaner and a greener place is the noble objective of the proposed system. To overcome those problems, an automated waste segregator at the hospital and medical clinic is used. For we are using proximity sensor, moisture sensor, gas sensor, ultrasonic sensor are used to detect and segregator the types of waste. This information can also be indicated to the head or the in-charge through a message by using cloud through arduino controller. For this system arduino IDE has been used to implement the program. This proposed system will save the lives of many people from toxic wastes.

Keyphrases: using IoT, using sensor, waste segregation
