WASTE MANAGEMENT USING BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY

Abstract

Block chain is a share, immutable ledger that makes simpler to track assets and recording transactions in a network. Here, the primary objective of our project is to look into how block chain technology may enhance existing methods for handling waste. The project's main goal is to employ block chain technology to monitor and handle waste from its generation to final disposal. The collection, transportation, processing, and environmentally suitable disposal of waste products are all parts of waste management. Glass, paper, and plastics are examples of waste items that can be recycled and used again. The terms "collection,""segregation," and "recycling" each refer to a distinct block that is integrated using immutable block chain technology. The project's overall goal is to develop a more efficient, transparent, and sustainable waste management system that benefits both the environment and the economy.
