Abstract: ABSTRACT E WASTE CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM The present invention discloses an E-waste classification system portable, automated, and used for effective segregation and recycling of electronic wastes. The invention is innovative as it comes with a powerful feeding mechanism which takes in any and every form of E waste and carries it through a set of rollers thus making the process more effective. The fans place the dust and plastic pollutants in a position to be blown away, and with the trash clean enough to let the particles be correctly categorized. Employing an advanced Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) algorithm, the system shall be able to discriminatively classify e-waste according to large and small sizes immersively and volumetrically. Sorting efficiency is expected to increase as the rate in which the e-waste types are sorted improves. The e-wastes which were classified are then directed to an output bin fitted with several collection bins for more processes and recycling operation. The e-waste classification system has been constructed in such a way that only a minimum amount of physical activity is required to achieve the sorted operational functions. The model is compact, lightweight making it appropriate in various places like recycling centers and collection places.
