EcoSense: IoT Waste Segregation with Fire & Gas Protection
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Internet of Things (IoT) based Smart Waste manager

Abstract
EcoSense is an IoT-based smart waste management system designed to improve waste segregation while enhancing safety through real-time fire and gas detection. The system aims to automatically identify and segregate waste while continuously monitoring hazardous conditions such as flammable gases and fire incidents in waste collection units. Using a combination of gas sensors, flame sensors, and microcontroller- based IoT modules, EcoSense detects the presence of harmful gases and fire, triggering immediate alerts to prevent accidents and environmental damage. The collected sensor data is transmitted to a cloud platform, enabling real-time monitoring and remote access through a web or mobile interface. Automated alerts are generated in case of abnormal conditions, allowing timely intervention by authorities. By integrating waste segregation with safety monitoring, EcoSense reduces manual handling risks, minimizes environmental pollution, and promotes efficient waste processing. This project demonstrates a cost-effective, scalable, and eco-friendly approach to modern waste management, contributing to smarter cities and sustainable environmental practices.
