| description | Metal recycling is an issue that needs attention
and should be practiced by people as it has many advantages to
human and Earth. In order to get a metal from Earth, the
process called mining are needed where it can harm our
natural resources due to depletion of the area to be mined. If
the process is not controlled, most of the areas on Earth will
have huge excavation holes. So, people should be responsible to
prevent this from happening to preserve the environment in a
good quality by recycling the metal material. By metal
recycling, it can save an energy and resources as it can reduce
the demand for raw materials, hence maintain the natural
resources for the future. The proposed automatic metal waste
separation system is intended to ease the people to separate the
waste material. Besides, it will make the metal recycling
industry work easier because the metal waste is already
isolated at garbage collection side. The purpose of the project is
to design a system to separate the metal recyclable household
waste automatically and record the data waste collected. There
are total of four detectors used to separate the non-metal, steel,
copper and aluminum metal waste. The average time used to
complete metal separation process by using the proposed
prototype is 14.5 seconds. This project includes a mechanical
part, programming part and an electronic design. The system
will be programmed using Arduino Mega as a microcontroller
to control all the electronic component in the system. |
