Abstract
Conventional methods for collecting floating waste from water bodies, such as manual labor, boats, and trash skimmers, are often risky, costly, and time-consuming. To address these challenges, we have designed a remoteoperated river cleaning machine that enhances efficiency, safety, and eco-friendliness. The Water Floating Wastage Cleaning Machine targets water bodies polluted with debris, garbage, and plastic waste. It employs DC motors, a receiver, propeller, and a chain-driven conveyor system to collect and remove floating waste. This machine tackles the ethical and health risks faced by manual laborers in waste removal, providing a safer and more effective alternative. The system features metal teeth-based jaws mounted within a vertical frame that allows water to pass through while capturing solid waste. Periodically, the jaws lift and dump accumulated waste into a filter basket, powered by a motorized shaft. This automated mechanism requires minimal power and operational effort, making it an efficient solution for cleaning rivers, gutters, and drains. The innovation significantly improves waste management in water bodies, reducing environmental impact and health hazards associated with traditional cleaning methods.
