Abstract: This invention pertains to an AI-Blockchain Smart Waste Collection & Carbon Credit System, which is a sustainable, transparent, and intelligent waste management system, comprising Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Blockchain, GPS, and Smart Contract-based carbon credit management system to address deficiencies of traditional waste collection systems. It is composed of IoT-powered smart waste bins, which are fitted with sensors for measuring waste level, its weight, and the environment surrounding them. Collected information from the waste bins is processed using an AI-based processing unit that performs analysis of patterns in the generation of waste, predicts when the bin will reach its maximum capacity, identifies waste material types, and creates an optimal route for transporting the waste. GPS is used in this system to confirm the process of picking up the waste by noting the location, time, and details of picking the waste. A blockchain-decentralized ledger stores all information r
