IoT BASED SMART DUSTBIN

Abstract

Every single person on Earth disposes of their garbage in a trash can or some other designated area. The trash consists of both 
biodegradable and non-biodegradable polymers. Everyone is making an effort to use the trash can or recycling bin exclusively. 
It is common to observe overflowing trash cans and other waste containers in public spaces around cities. The result is an 
unsanitary environment. On top of that, it causes certain very dangerous illnesses. Simultaneously, a foul smell permeates the 
whole city, causing environmental degradation. Recycling bins are really a kind of waste management procedure; however, 
unlike regular trash cans, they do not need more waste. Effective waste disposal is the process of removing trash from public 
and commercial spaces like schools, universities, malls, and companies. We need to plan the project such that we can track 
when the garbage can is full and how much rubbish has been deposited inside. One piece of hardware needed to measure the 
trash can is the NodeMCU, which works in conjunction with an ultrasonic sensor. An IFTTT Webhook is the software 
component that is used for receiving notifications.
