Abstract: Rapid urbanization has made the amount of municipal solid waste much larger, which makes it much harder to sort and manage. Traditional methods heavily depend on manual processes, which are slow and often make mistakes. This paper describes a Smart Waste Segregation Monitoring System that uses the Internet of Things (IoT) to automatically sort waste into dry and wet categories while keeping an eye on the fill level of bins in real time. The system combines sensors, microcontrollers and a cloud-based dashboard to make it possible to automatically sort items and keep an eye on them from a web interface. The system performance is analyzed in terms of sensor limitations, communication reliability, and scalability, highlighting challenges in handling composite waste. The proposed system helps with urban city projects and makes urban waste management more efficient by improving the waste in sorted order and how it is picked up.
