Smart MSW

Abstract

As a human being, we produce adverse amount of waste from our daily life chores. From preparing food to running an industry, everywhere some wastes are being disposed. To keep our environment pollution free and healthy, we should think about the disposal of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW). Otherwise, our land could be unsuitable for living. In this work, we considered our beloved city, Gazipur which is one of the largest district in Bangladesh. We evaluated the volume of waste that are generated in a particular day by a single person. In sum, we saw that around 475,000 kg of solid waste is produced in the area of 2.5 million population. To process the waste, we proposed an architecture where they will undergo some procedures indoor and hence the environment will not be polluted any more. Moreover, We designed a smart dustbin to accelerate the collection process of the MSW and it will also help to lessen the moisture content from the waste. Besides, we have done a rough estimation of the cost to run the plant and the earning. We showed that there will be an approximate profit of 185,500 BDT per day after a successful production from the waste created a day in whole Gazipur. We approached upgraded version of Anerobic digestion and Pyrolysis for Biological and Thermal treatment respectively. The numerical values of different contents were taken from Ultimate and Proximate analysis.
