Abstract
The population of the urban areas is increasing daily, and this migration is causing serious environmental pollution. A larger population is creating pressure on the municipality's waste management and the city corporations of developing countries such as Bangladesh, further threatening human health. New generation technologies, such as the Internet of Things (IoT)-based waste management systems, can help improve this serious issue. IoT-enabled smart dustbins and mobile applications-based interactive management can effectively solve this problem. In this article, we combine these two technologies to offer an acceptable solution to this problem. The proposed waste management model enables smart dustbins to communicate with waste collectors or waste control centers whenever it is necessary. Additionally, city dwellers can use mobile applications to report their observations in their…
