ABSTRACT : Solid  waste  is  the  majority  in  our waste generation, so its disposal and proper management is a top priority. Most of the societies in India now have made it compulsory to segregate wet and dry waste, but  you know  how  the  average Indian  citizen is  – ignorant and so eagerly looking forward to breaking the  rules.  Many  times  in  our  city  we see  that  the garbage bins placed at  public places are  overloaded which creates unhygienic conditions for people and at the same time it creates a great problem for its proper management and disposal. Also, its segregation at the primary  level  is difficult.  So  we  came up  with  an innovative solution  to the  abovementioned problem by creating some advancements in a

traditional bin for efficient  segregation  and  proper  as  well  as  timely disposal of solid waste. In  this  paper  we  have  proposed  a  system which timely detects the type of waste i.e. dry or wet waste and segregates it, also it reduces the problem of overloading of the bin and the whole system is run by itself by  some mechanism  attached which generates electricity and  runs the  system or  contemporary the system can also be run by using solar panels.
