TLDR
A smart bin application based on information self-contained in tags associated to each waste item using a RFID-based system without requiring the support of an external information system is proposed.
Abstract
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a pervasive computing technology that can be used to improve waste management by providing early automatic identification of waste at bin level. In this paper, we propose a smart bin application based on information self-contained in tags associated to each waste item. The wastes are tracked by smart bins using a RFID-based system without requiring the support of an external information system. Two crucial features of the selective sorting process can be improved using this approach. First, the user is helped in the application of selective sorting. Second, the smart bin knows its content and can report back to the rest of the recycling chain.

Environmental implications of RFID

TL;DR: Four environmental applications of radiofrequency identification tags are discussed: reduction of traffic congestions through RFID-enabled congestion pricing; rewards for recycling using RFID transponders on curbside recycling bins; environmental information about products accessed through consumer cell-phones or PDAs; and use of RFID tags on products to make recycling and reuse easier.
