2. OBJECTIVE
To design & implement a compact, low cost and user friendly waste segregation system to
streamline the waste management process.
To design a system that segregate the waste into two categories i.e. biodegradable
and non-biodegradable for ensuring a high quality of material is retained for recycle.
To reduce the difficulty & occupational hazard for worker involved in the collection of
waste.
To reduce the pollution by collecting biodegradable waste directly for biogas.
To reduce the overall time required for processing post segregation.

8. 1. Initialize Components:
• Set up LCD, servo motors, ultrasonic sensors, gas sensor, and serial communication.
2. Measure Garbage Bin Levels:
• Use ultrasonic sensors to check bin fullness.
• If full, turn on an alert (LED) and display a warning on the LCD.
3. Receive Waste Type from Serial Communication:
• Read the incoming character (a, b, c, d).
4. Control Servo Motors for Waste Segregation:
• 'a' (Food Waste): Move Servo1 & Servo2 to dump waste.
• 'b' (Paper): Move Servo1 & Servo2 accordingly.
• 'c' (Metal): Move Servo1 & Servo3 for disposal.
• 'd' (Plastic): Move Servo1 & Servo3 to direct plastic waste.
5. Monitor Air Quality (Smell Sensor):
• If gas sensor value ≥ 700, trigger an alert and display “SMELL HIGH” on the LCD.
6. Repeat the Process Continuously.

18. CONCLUSION
Present system of management should be upgraded.
Segregation of waste at source for recyclable material should be encouraged
so that the quantity of waste to be disposed can be minimized and recycling
should be adopted.
It plays a crucial role in lightening the burden on government exchequer and
municipality by recycling.
