Design and Development of Dry Waste Management System for Electricity Generation

The rise of the waste will be the bigger issue of all over the world. The majority of the waste will normally dump to fill the lands, this will become the major issue and creates the environmental issues in surroundings. To overcome this, we placed an idea in this project initially to segregate dry waste and wet waste automatically in view of minimizing the man power. In this project microcontroller will acts as a central unit of the system. The sensors are used to identify dry waste and wet waste. In our work, we consider dry waste like paper, wood, plastic etc., and send to the heat chamber and then after burning, heat energy is converted into electrical energy using thermos electric generator. The investigations are carried out by different finite elements to analyze the electricity generation w.r.t temperature variation in the system. The best part of this prototype system is not only reducing the waste but also generates electricity.
