Municipal solid waste, commonly known as garbage, is a waste category comprising of items that are discarded. The waste that is involved is very flagrant, we approach a system called as Involuntary Solid Waste Segregator (ISWS), where the segregation of the waste like metal, glass and plastic, organic and sanitary napkins are carried out.
