Flow Chart: Design Circuit Block Diagram

The document describes the design of a waste segregation system with three motors and sensors. The system uses a conveyor belt to move input waste past an inductive proximity sensor that detects metals. A moisture sensor then determines if non-metal waste is wet or dry. Wet waste is diverted by motor 3 while metal is diverted by motor 2 into separate bins, with dry waste falling into a final bin. The process is controlled by an Arduino UNO microcontroller.

Chapter 3

Design Circuit
 Block Diagram

The components of the proposed system are:


 M1: Motor driving the conveyer belt.
 M2: Motor driving the segregator to put metal waste into the bin.
 M3: motor driving the segregator to put the wet waste into the bin.
Once the input waste is placed on the conveyer belt, the conveyer belt
starts moving and all the sensors are turned on and the sensing and
segregation start. The metal sensor, the moisture sensor, the feedback
sensors and the motor sensors that are used to get the segregators in
place are given as input to Arduino UNO. The output is the final segregated
wastes into different bins.

Flow Chart
The algorithm of the project is as follows:
 Step-1: When the waste enters the conveyer belt motor turns on and the
conveyer belt starts moving.
 Step-2: The microcontroller, all the motors, and sensors are turned on.
 Step-3: The waste is sensed by the inductive proximity sensor to detect if it
is a metal or no.
 Step-4: If the waste is metal waste then M1 is turned off and M2 is turned
on and the waste is pushed into the metal waste bin. Also, the counter 1 is
incremented (keeps a count of a number of metal waste dumped).
 Step-5: If not a metallic waste, M1 is kept on when it comes in contact with
the moisture sensor that decides whether the waste is a wet waste or dry
waste by checking the moisture content of the waste.
 Step-6: If the waste has some humidity it is detected as wet waste and M1
is turned off and M3 is turned on and the waste is pushed into the wet
waste bin. Also, the counter 2 is incremented (keeps a count of a number
of wet waste being dumped).
 Step-7: If not a wet waste M1 is kept on and then the waste is dropped into
the dry waste bin placed at the end of the conveyer belt.
 Step-8: Finally the wastes are dropped into the respective bins and the
segregation process is completed.
