Abstract	The rising number of people in cities that are experiencing fast urban growth creates new challenges for municipalities to handle their solid waste. The combination of improper waste segregation from its origin point, low recycling rates and limited public participation leads to two problems: environmental contamination and ineffective waste treatment. The waste management systems of the past depend on human labor to sort waste materials because they do not have automated sorting systems or public engagement programs which offer rewards to encourage community participation.
