Abstract
Internet of things (IoT) integrates many technologies and is bringing about a paradigm change in the way of living across the world. With the fifth generation of modern wireless communication, it is rapidly gaining popularity enabling numerous and diverse applications. Assorted and heterogenous devices and soft wares can be connected to form one single logical architecture. A smart world with energy saving, pollution control as well as smart transportation, industries, cities, home are a reality made possible by IoT technology. Despite some benefits, traditional management of waste which often involves manual collection, followed by disposal or recycling through a defined process, also involves a significant number of errors of judgement e.g., bins may get overfilled or remain underfilled. Waste pickup trucks collect waste on schedule regardless of bin fill status. Unoptimized routes can waste fuel and pollute. Bringing together garbage at the central location further complicates sorting and recycling. Without appropriate technologies and tools, waste management is laborious and inefficient. This paper aims to provide an insight into this trending technology and explore its application in making of a smart city by smart garbage disposal. This paper includes an overview of the technology, the importance of maintaining biodiversity, and the use of IoT in smart waste management to safeguard urban biodiversity.
