Abstract

The waste management in rural touristic area is essential both for the environmental sustainability and quality of experience. Advanced waste segregation, sorting and collection protocols helps in cutting pollution, saving resources and better public health. Industrial Internet of Things technologies offer a fresh perspective to transform waste management systems making them efficient and sustainable. Waste segregation means separating waste at the source into different categories in rural touristic areas such as organic, recyclable and non-recyclable. Sorting facilities deal with these categories and have literally based their operations on technologies including automated sorting machines, enhanced speed sensors for accuracy. This chapter focuses on deploying IIoT-based waste segregation & sorting followed by smart disposal in the rural touristic destinations can help elevate sustainability to another level. Implementation of these technologies in the way that Singapore has done is worthy blueprint, charting a course for increased efficiency and protection of our environment.
