A Study on a Water-Body-Based Robotics Waste Management System

Abstract

The increase of waste material in water bodies has become an alarming threat to nature. Nevertheless, waste management has also been a challenging task for years. Though there have been plenty of technological advancements, yet no large-scale impact has been observed in the domain of waste management. Water waste is a subdomain of waste management that deals with waste present in water bodies like the sea, ocean, etc. It is essential to comprehend the aspects that lead to the generation of water waste, the nature of the waste that is to be dealt with, and highlight the issues faced while dealing with the large-scale treatment of water bodies. For better understanding, in this paper, the authors have performed a relevant survey about the recent works and technologies in the field of robotics that is targeted toward the purpose of water-waste management.
