The waste segregation system that is developed here is a prototype which segregates metal, paper and plastics from the wastes that are being dumped into the hopper using ARM. Once IR sensor detects the presence of the wastes conveyor belt starts to move, simultaneously blower and sensor turns on. The wastes that are carried along the conveyor belt are made t of all on respective waste bins. We are placing sensors at the top of the bin to detect the wastes once it gets filled. An astounding 0. 25milliontons of waste is generated each day in India. Sadly, only 4. 5% of this colossal amount of waste is recycled. One possible solution for this problem could be segregating the waste at the disposal level itself. In India, the collection, transportation and disposal of waste on outskirts of cities has created overflowing landfills which are not only impossible to reclaim because the hazardous manner of dumping but also has serious environmental implication in terms of groundwater pollution . This project is mainly developed to make our nation, Clean India, go Green to implement as Swatch Bharat
