Details (English):
On February 16, 2022, the student development team at Ratthapum College, organized a practical training project to create smart waste bins. Due to the current situation of the Covid-19 pandemic, there has been an increase in infectious waste accumulation. This project was initiated to allow students to develop a new innovation for waste disposal. The smart bin features an automatic open-close system using sensors. These smart bins can classify the types of waste to be discarded. The working principle of the smart bin involves sensors detecting the amount of waste by measuring the distance between the top-mounted sensor and the waste level. When the waste reaches a predetermined level, the control circuit processes this information and notifies the user via the LINE application on the Internet, allowing them to monitor and manage the waste, reducing the time and human resources needed to deal with waste-related issues. This innovation aims to make waste management more convenient, reduce physical contact, and minimize the risk of disease transmission. The smart waste bin project is the result of the efforts of Dr. Thosapit Wisamitrnanta, an agricultural engineering lecturer, who shared his knowledge and taught the students how to create smart waste bins. After completing the smart waste bins, the student development team will deliver them to the community, local cooperatives, and use them within the Ratthapum College community.
