Abstract

Modern approaches for waste management assure effectiveness, openness, and sustainability and hence can be adopted with the aim of handling increasing waste problem globally. The use of blockchain, which is well known for its decentralization and immutability, may help to revolutionalize this area. The chapter focuses on the uses of blockchain in waste management. Better traceability is one of the primary benefits of blockchain's application in waste management. Thus, it is possible to monitor the movement of waste garbage from the time it leaves the source to the time it gets to the waste garages. The integration of the internet of things (IoT) with blockchain technology is useful in the following ways in enhancing the functionality of the system. In this chapter, the blockchain-enabled smart waste management system is proposed to change the traditional waste management system in the urban areas by using the IoT devices, smart contracts, and data analytics.
