        abstract = {This paper presents an automated car washing system utilizing PLC and SCADA for efficient control and monitoring. The system incorporates DC motors and pumps, push buttons, indicator lamps, a conveyor belt system, and a brushing assembly to streamline the washing process. The PLC ensures precise timing and coordination, while SCADA provides system monitoring and control. A key feature is the collection and filtration of water from surrounding residencies to reuse it in the washing cycle, promoting sustainability. The automated mechanism enhances reliability, reduces human intervention, and optimizes resource consumption. This approach significantly improves conventional car washing, making it more efficient and environmentally responsible.},
