Description
Summary:Waste is a significant threat to our environment also to the human health, it influenced by many issues such management practices and large amount of food waste. As for the issue, a project named “Eco-Friendly Fertilizer: A Composting Solution Using Arduino for Food Waste Reduction” is introduced. The development of the project is a combination of the hardware and Internet of Things (IoT). The aims of this project are to build a composting system where the food waste is being converted to organic fertilizer for environmental eco-friendly system. The project is developed using an Arduino as a microcontroller, sensor like temperature sensor, pH sensor and moisture sensor. These sensor works as input of the project. While LCD and LED work as output. Besides, the Blynk software are integrated to the hardware as an IoT for monitoring and controlling purposes. Each of the input and output will be combined to get on complete system. Through this combination of components, the project expected to produce high- quality of organic compost that used for fertilizer while reducing the amount of food waste
