Abstract

Smart city technology evolved with the developments in wireless sensor networks (WSN) and the internet of things (IoT). IoT-based waste management is an advanced waste management system offered in smart cities. The practice of monitoring, transporting, and processing of solid waste are included in the waste management. Litter bins play an indispensable role in the waste collection process at the primary level. The process of monitoring litter bins would become difficult for the ones placed at out of reach areas and remotely located sites. Smart litter bin (SLB) is generally embedded with different types of sensors where used for sensing the garbage levels and locating the bins location. Radio frequency identification (RFID), sensors, global positioning systems (GPS), general packet radio service (GPRS) are the components in smart waste management system and are discussed in this chapter. These components were used to monitor the collection, transportation, processing, and dumping. This chapter also focuses on the perception of IoT architecture to upgrade waste management in smart cities.
