AUTOMATIC RECYCLING WASTE SORTING PLANT
Project Area of Specialization Shared EconomyProject SummaryAutomatic is watch word of today. Garbage is a serious problem now a days, everyday the huge amount of garbage is to be disposed in increasing population and the quantity of items used in daily life. Burning the garbage creates environmental hazards and harmful gases which pollutes the environment. This is need of green technology to combat the problems. In this study we will discuss one method to resolve that problem successfully and economically.
As technology increased, life style changes and a lot of products are in disposable forms which create garbage in huge amount. This garbage can not be burnt or disposed easily and safely. Therefore there is need of a system in which we can sort out different type of garbage on the basis of their material that can be recycled or disposed accordingly.
Project Objectives- To design conveyor belt type system to move material continuously.
- To find out and implement the sensors required to sort out the garbage on basis of material type.
- To built moving arm for sorting material accordingly.
- Test and run the final project.
ADDITIONAL ( If time allowed)
- Sorting material on basis of weight.
- Sorting material on basis of color.
First of all we will design the conveyor belt system i.e. conveyor path to move the materials continuously. It will be done by using DC motor and necessary items. After designing conveyor system sensors are to be used for detection purpose. Next these sensors to be added to the conveyor path side by side. By utilizing servo motors we will built an arm for sorting the material to the desirable box. Arm will also be placed to conveyor path side by side accordingly. An arduino will be used for performing required operations with the help of programming.
Benefits of the Project- Reducing pollution
- Utilizing needed material from garbage
- Environmental friendly
- Increase employment
- Produce cheap recycle products
- Controlling of arm by arduino.it required 5v for working.
- Detection of material using sensors.
