Abstract

Rapid waste creation contributes to the spread of infectious illnesses in the environment. The present rate of population expansion generates an unsanitary environment for a society's citizens in terms of waste output. This paper describes an Internet of Things (IoT) innovation for a smart garbage bin with a real-time monitoring system that incorporates numerous technologies. This study proposes a Medical Waste Collection Management (MWCM) for hospitals and clinics in smart cities through IoT to keep the city clean and monitor waste bins in real-time. An Android application is utilized to provide truck drivers with root mapping navigation directions. As a result, truck drivers have an easier time deciding where to collect medical waste in cities. The MWCM contains real-time statistics about each bin to avoid overpopulation. The purpose of this research is to develop an effective as well as outlay MWCM system that will deliver a clean, healthy, and green environment. Optimization algorithm help in route optimization in garbage collection station occupancy is maintained under control, and vehicle fuel economy and carbon emissions are reduced. Furthermore, the proposed system supports several of the sustainable development objectives to find the optimal solution. The proposed system decreases costs and saves time and labor work.
