Waste management is one of the basic and fundamental services provided by municipal authorities and it is also one of the most expensive services. Although progress has been made in recent years, much still needs to be done to make this service as efficient as possible and to increase citizens' collaboration in the process of separate waste collection. In this paper, a waste management system is proposed mainly based on the use of an innovative Radio Frequency Identification tag equipped with low-cost sensors and a cloud-based software system able to manage and extract important information from the collected data. This information will be displayed by several users (citizens, municipal authorities, waste companies) in form of web dashboard and used to improve the waste management process.

Abstract
Waste management is one of the basic and fundamental services provided by municipal authorities and it is also one of the most expensive services. Although progress has been made in recent years, much still needs to be done to make this service as efficient as possible and to increase citizens' collaboration in the process of separate waste collection. In this paper, a waste management system is proposed mainly based on the use of an innovative Radio Frequency Identification tag equipped with low-cost sensors and a cloud-based software system able to manage and extract important information from the collected data. This information will be displayed by several users (citizens, municipal authorities, waste companies) in form of web dashboard and used to improve the waste management process.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
