Analysis on smart waste management in Malaysia
Human overpopulation is among the most pressing environmental issues. As the population growth is rapidly increasing, there will be more people who will consume more resources. On the other hand, public waste bins are filling up faster than ever and inevitably, many of the bins end up overflowi...

description |
Human overpopulation is among the most pressing
environmental issues. As the population growth is rapidly
increasing, there will be more people who will consume more
resources. On the other hand, public waste bins are filling up
faster than ever and inevitably, many of the bins end up
overflowing before collected, causing not only cluttered streets and
bad odors, but also negative health and environmental impacts.
The question that everyone has in mind but not knows what the
solution is, how to manage the issue of overflowing bins? To cater
this problem, a new effective waste disposal management can be
proposed. With the title of “Analysis on Smart Waste Management
in Malaysia”, the objective of this research is mainly to conduct a
survey that shows the current household waste management in
Malaysia, to analyze the conducted survey and to propose a subtle
solution for the garbage overflowing issues. This research will
focus on the implementation of few sensors and microcontroller
that act as the internet of things’ (IoT) devices in the dustbin. Of
the biggest benefit to develop a smart waste management system
is to notify the waste collector of the real-time status of the waste
level inside a bin through short message services (SMS), which
later will assign the waste collector crews to collect the waste inside
the bin. This system will decrease the cost and increase the time
efficiency of the services. In addition, this study is vital to provide
statistical amount of waste collected in Malaysia within the
stipulated time and to prevent overflow of the garbage from the
unattended bins. Hence, it can lead to the prevention of
environmental pollution. |
