Biomedical Waste Management Using IoT Tracked and Fuzzy Classified Integrated Technique

Improper handling of biomedical waste from a healthcare facilities and common biomedical waste treatment facilities can lead to serious implications like causing mass infections and significant environmental damage in terms of air, water, and land pollution. Every year there is an increase of about 8% of the biomedical waste generation in comparison to previous years. To effectively and efficiently manage the biomedical waste in a proper manner, several attempts have been taken to make the waste management system more improved through the implementation of an automated waste management system comprised of wireless systems. Segregation of waste helps in minimizing large loads of hazardous waste that is potentially hazardous to the environment as a whole requiring a treatment process that is costly and requires skilled manpower. It also helps in labeling and packaging of waste in a proper manner In this paper, we will discuss how Information Technology and Internet of Things play a crucial key role in detecting and tracking of biomedical waste along with treatment and disposal of biomedical waste in best possible manner The fuzzy system is used to categorize the waste according to four parameters. Then the fuzzy acts as feedback to Internet of Things based tracking system.
