Abstract

Difficulties encountered in the solid waste management system is no mechanism to manage the waste disposal activities even though the waste bin already full and there is no mechanism to notify the authority regarding the waste bin status when it is already full and need fast collection. Due to that, this project aims to develop a prototype of the concept, design and implementation of solar powered smart waste bin management system with level sense that consists of several modules such as sensor system, controller module, Wi-Fi module and GSM module for solving these problems. Regular trash upgraded by using solar power to generate energy to detect the height of the waste through the sensor system when the trash reaches the capacity established as 85% of the capacity of a dustbin. There are level sensors that has been used to detect the level of trash height is ultrasonic sensors and a LCD display is used to display the status of waste from the height which for more user-friendly way. Next, the status in the trash has been stored in the control unit such as a MySQL database and Java program before the data is sent to the concessionaire in charge of garbage collection at that time by text message. The Java in the control unit was trigger the controller module to send notification to the recipient via the short messaging system (SMS) through a GSM module that informs them that the waste bin is ready to be emptied.
