Abstract:

Source segregation, the first important step for effective solid waste management, is practised by a handful of organizations in limited areas in Nepal. The inadequacy of source segregation and ineffective collection system in Nepal have led to maximum waste reaching the landfill site. Though several researchers have studied the role of stakeholders and the importance of youths in the waste management sector, there is a paucity of studies on the role of youths, particularly in waste segregation in Nepal. In this regard, this study was conducted to understand the at-source household waste segre

Medical wastes generated by healthcare facilities, such as sharps, and chemical, pathological, infectious, and pharmaceutical wastes, are hazardous and have been known to cause various infections such as Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and Human-Immune Virus (HIV). Various studies in MW have established that source segregation is an effective step in managing hospital waste and, therefore, the most important step in reducing health hazards and environmental pollution. Hospitals are therefore required to put in place sufficient infrastructure such as personal protective equipment, storage as well as

Abstract:

Residential waste is a substantial contributor to solid waste generation, which is approximately around 36.5 million tons annually in India. The waste created in households is not separated at the source. All waste is accumulated in a single waste bin and stashed in a nearby public waste bin, resulting in a massive amount of waste being dumped in landfills and also infused with other types of waste, causing environmental pollution. The core objective of this research is to develop a household waste segregator using the TensorFlow object detection model and Arduino microcontroller. The SSD Mobi

Abstract:

Waste segregation is an essential aspect of a smoothly functioning waste management system. Usually, various recyclable waste types are disposed of together at the source, and this brings in the necessity to segregate them into their categories. Dry waste needs to be separated into its own categories to ensure that the proper procedures are implemented to treat and process it, which leads to an overall increased recycling rate and reduced landfill impact. Paper, plastics, metals, and glass are just a few examples of the many dry waste materials that can be recycled or recovered to create new g

Municipal solid waste management is a huge challenge specially in the developing countries. The first and fundamental step to solve the problem of municipal solid waste management is by waste segregation at source and separate collection of waste, which will help to recover recyclable materials and reduce the amount of waste that needs to be disposed at the dumpsite or landfill site. In Nepal, waste segregation at source is mandated by law but the government is not able to implement it successfully.

In this study, we examine the economic and environmental significance associated with the implementation of an EU waste-separated collection scheme in a developing context – Lebanon. Two scenarios, S1 and S2, representing different intensities of source segregation were analysed. In S1, the average source segregation intensity reached 25% and 13% for the Italian test area and Lebanese test area, respectively. In S2, source segregation intensity increased to 48% and 68% for the Italian and Lebanese test areas, respectively. Passing from S1 to S2 increased collection costs significantly, up to 4

Abstract:

The Automated Smart Waste Segregation Bin is an innovative waste management solution that leverages artificial intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT) technology, and automation to efficiently classify and dispose of waste. This sensorequipped system is designed to distinguish between biodegradable, recyclable, and non-recyclable waste, significantly improving waste segregation at the source. By addressing the inefficiencies in traditional waste disposal methods, this smart bin enhances waste management practices, encourages sustainable recycling efforts, and minimizes landfill waste accum

Abstract:

Waste management struggles with the segregation of biodegradable and non-biodegradable waste due to improper disposal, leading to contamination and reduced recyclable material quality. This study addresses these challenges by developing a machine learning-based waste classification system. Utilizing image classification techniques, specifically the VGG-16 Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model, the system categorizes waste into biodegradable and non-biodegradable using a dataset from an open-source website. The methodology includes eight phases: preliminary study, knowledge and data acquisit

Abstract:

Domestic waste is gradually becoming one of the sources of severe environmental pollution. Phan Dinh Phung ward is one of the central wards of Thai Nguyen city, with a dense population, so the amount of domestic waste in the ward is large. This study was conducted to assess the current status of domestic waste classification at the source to have a basis for proposing practical solutions to improve the efficiency of domestic waste management in Phan Dinh Phung ward. The methods used in this study include document analysis and synthesis, sociological investigation, and data processing. Research

Abstract:

The growth of public awareness about environmental concerns is triggered since the late 1960s. Today, it becomes an international highlight on the importance of protecting the natural environment by developing the environmental consciousness and awareness to society. Besides that, there is an increasing trend in the daily generation of municipal solid waste due to the human consumption patterns lately. Therefore, the best way to manage this public health issue should be started from the waste segregation-at-source. Ultimately, by realising the scarce knowledge and research within the field, th

Abstract:

<em>Recently, garbage disposal in the world has become a significant cause of concern. A large quantity of waste generated is disposed of through methods that have a negative environmental impact. Open dumping at landfill sites is the common method of disposing the waste. This approach is harmful to human health, plant and livestock life. This hazardous waste disposal system can pollute soil and ground waters, and therefore can transfer diseases. When the waste is divided into basic forms such as wet, dry, and metallic, the sorted waste has a higher recycling capability and is processed and ut

The high volume of waste generated in Cepogo is a severe environmental problem, totalling around 72 tons per month. One of the leading causes of this problem is the lack of citizen participation in segregating waste at the source. This study aims to identify factors that influence waste segregation behavior by using the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) as a reference model developed by adding variables such as government role, law enforcement, social norms, environmen
