At the policy level, Republic Act No. 9003 establishes the legal framework for solid waste management in the Philippines. This law emphasizes proper collection, storage, and disposal practices to safeguard public health and promote environmental sustainability. By enforcing structured waste management procedures, it provides guidelines that complement technological innovations in garbage segregation.
In line with these developments, the main objective of this study is to design a waste segregation system that efficiently determines the appropriate category of garbage and directs it to the correct bin. The proposed model employs a conveyor belt system with integrated sensors to detect, identify, and separate waste materials such as plastic, plastic bottles, paper, and metal. By combining practical design with modern technology, the system aims to demonstrate that garbage segregation can be made more effective, sustainable, and economically viable.
