This research proposes the use of technology to tackle the issues being faced in terms of waste management. Nowadays poor waste management has caused an increase in landfilling and dumping sites that instigated pollution and a waste of recyclable materials that can be used for recycling or remanufacturing. The method approached to solve this issue was to construct a waste separation smart dustbin by integrating proximity sensors and a moisture sensor into a microcontroller to detect metal, moist and recyclable waste while using a conveyor belt to segregate it. The constructed prototype provided sufficient results to justify the method attempted. With this research attempted, waste management system is taking its first steps into a successful system to achieve a sustainable environment for the present and the years to come.
