Waste management is an important requirement for ecologically sustainable development. Efficient sorting of waste is a major issue in today’s society. The main goals of this discussion are to come up with solutions for the following problems using technology as a tool.

1) Reducing waste production
2) Ensuring that wastes are properly disposed
3) Recycling and re-using disposed products

“Swachh Bharat Abhiyan” or the "Clean India Mission" is India's biggest cleanliness campaign that aims to accomplish the vision of "Clean India". Waste management is an integral part of this campaign. To assist the “Swachh Bharat Abhiyan” initiative, projects may be setup to create products which are solar-powered trash receptacle and trash compactor that alerts sanitation crews of municipal authorities, when it is full.

Also E-Waste (obsolete, discarded, broken and surplus electrical and electronic devices) is of immediate and long term concern as the industry is unregulated and recycling can lead to major environmental degradation posing a major threat to human health.

Internet of Things (IoT) is a new generation technology which allows integration of small devices/gadgets with web based system .The devices send signals through sensors using constraint application protocol (CoAP), Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) etc. and interact with the web-based system using the HTTP protocol, So the existing solution architectures are getting extended.

We would like to welcome your ideas on how a smart waste management system using IoT can be implemented in order to achieve the target of “Swachh Bharat Abhiyan”.

Waste mngmnt shud begin frm home, where d in house waste should b segregated. Waste paper, vegetable peels &other biodegradable wastes shud b separated frm non-biodegradable wastes such as plastic wrappers, packets, sanitary napkins, razor blades & d like. Once dis partially segregated waste is collected by d local authorities, it should further b segregated 2 recover glass pieces, metal objects/scrapes(work done by rag pickers but if done systematically, will b a good waste management practice)

These days sweeper takes salary from the municipality and also gets per month fixed amount from a house to collect garbage. There should be a system that municipality can give a contract for 50 houses to a single sweeper to collect the garbage and charge for the same can be a minimum fix amount . It may help to reduce the salary burden of municipality and in waste management. Municipality can issue a helpline no with ID of sweeper for any assistance.

For effective implementation model project should be start with capable Municipal corporation where new idea can me implemented. For example gov can select Surat Municipal corporation where one particular zone may be selected. training to each society , subsidy for keeping three types of dustbin, collection as per colour of dustbin, creation of compost and use of compost as dry fertilizer . Entire process can be monitored and streamlined and then more wards/zone can be added.

कूड़े को उसके source से ही अलग करना चाहिए. घर में दो तरह के कूड़ेदान होने चाहिए. एक में सूखा कूड़ा, एक में किचन का गीला कूड़ा. वही से कूड़े को अलग अलग डब्बों में रखना चाहिए. कूड़ा उठाने वाले भी दो तरह के डब्बे लायें. दोनों को आरंभ से ही अलग रखने और फेंकने से कूड़े की समुचित व्यवस्था हो सकेगी. धन्यवाद!

to my mind for a good waste management system we need to first segregate waste in to two parts i.e 1. dry waste includes plastic and e wastes 2. wastes of perishable natures . these should be collected separately at every household and same needs to collected by local authorities for further processings. we should encourage each and every household to segregate their wastes into plastics and of perishable nature. this will help to take care of our environment. thanks

There is no system of collection of daily household wastage & public sewerage in rural areas in West Bengal. If there is waste collection system like corporation or Municipality the villages would became clean. At present people dump their household wastage here & there and that makes the villages dirty. Above all most of the villagers don't have their own land to dump the wastage as well as to drain the daily used water & they face big problem.Huge Wastage of 70% Indian can generate huge energy

1.Collection of waste by Municipal corporations from each and every house hold into 3 categories a.Degradable waste b.Non Degradable waste c.E-Waste. 2.All companies manufacturing E-Products should be asked to make their own cells for collecting E-Wastes from the people and have toll free no. for their clients. As these companies do in other countries. 3.Waste to energy should be encouraged.
