Diseño e implementación de un prototipo de alertas tempranas en el proceso de recolección de basura basado en una plataforma IoT

Abstract

The objective of this study was to design and implement an early warning system for the solid waste collection process in Riobamba city. The system allows sending an early warning of the arrival of the garbage collection truck to the 24 de mayo neighborhood, through a text message to any number of a mobile operator, in turn the houses are equipped with a visual alert system, located within sight of the entire family group, optimizing the collection of waste in a city. Preserving municipal assets (eco garbage cans). From the analytical method, it was interacted with all the elements to form a single pattern of the monitoring system. The monitoring system is composed of an input block, data processing and output, a cellular communication channel and reception through a web server, showing the location events ofeach collector truck in real time. The input block is made up by a NEO 6M GPS location sensor in charge of receiving and interpreting information from satellites to determine the truck's location. In the information processing block, an ESP 32S board and a Raspberry Pi were used to assess the data obtained by the prototype and send this information to a web server. In the output block, a SIM 8001. and an ESP 32S were used to send the values obtained from the beginning of the input block to the different reception points (houses). It is concluded that an early warning system in the waste collection process reduces the over accumulation of waste in eco garbage cans, favoring the environment and giving a greater scope of warning of the arrival of the collection truck to the different areas of the city.
