Food waste is a major obstacle in managing inequality, optimizing living conditions, and promoting prosperity, specifically among the world's most starving economies. Its influences stretch to preventing food supply; it alters financial maturation, c...
Sorting municipal solid waste (MSW) at the source is a critical first step toward achieving a circular economy. Previous research has primarily focused on vision-based intelligent algorithms for MSW classification using red-green-blue (RGB) images. S...
Reverse vending machines (RVMs) are essential for promoting waste sorting at the source by offering incentives for recycling. However, current RVMs, which primarily rely on expensive sensors such as barcode scanners and computer vision systems, face ...
The economic and environmental sustainability of waste-to-energy (WtE) plants can be improved through advanced control techniques such as model predictive control (MPC), which enables stricter regulation by incorporating constraints, handling multipl...
As industrialization and the development of smart cities progress, effective waste collection, classification, and management have become increasingly vital. Recycling processes depend on accurately identifying and restoring waste materials to their ...
Healthcare activities in hospitals generate numerous types of post-use waste materials that can be classified as hazardous. This study proposes an Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) integrated framework for secure and efficient...
The construction sector is a large consumer of plastic, generating substantial volumes of plastic waste. Effective recycling of this waste requires accurate classification, as different plastic materials undergo distinct recycling processes to retain...
As the challenge of climate change continues to grow, we need creative solutions to predict better and track industrial waste carbon emissions, focusing on sustainable waste management practices. The present study proposes a state-of-the-art Metavers...
This study addresses the critical challenges of waste management and water quality in urban environments, where accelerated urbanization has exacerbated environmental degradation and public health risks. Employing advanced machine learning algorithms...
