        abstract = {Waste management is a problem in cities because there is so much waste and nobody is really keeping an eye on it. This means that the trash overflows and it smells really bad and is not clean all. The smart dustbin system is an idea. It uses a sensor to see how much waste is, in the dustbin and an MQ135 gas sensor to find out if there are any bad gases around. The Arduino Uno is the part that makes everything work together. It looks at what the sensors saying. The system also has a servo motor that can open and close by itself. There is a little light that shows if the dustbin is full or not. The smart dustbin system is a good way makes environment clean and to keep an eye on the waste. Waste maintained is important. The smart dustbin system can really help with waste management.},
