The rise in carbon emissions is partly due to the lack of discipline among
Filipinos. This trend poses significant challenges not only for the environment but
also for public health, both within the Philippines and globally. Carbon dioxide

(Bauld, 2021). Solid waste plays a direct role in the production of greenhouse gases
by producing methane through the anaerobic decomposition of waste in landfills
and by releasing nitrous oxide from combustion facilities used for solid waste
choosing reusable items over disposable ones, thus embracing the principles of
reduce, reuse, and recycle (The Nature Conservancy, 2022). Additionally, in the
study conducted by Lam (2021), he created a smart-trash bin, with the assistance
of a sensor and actuator devices, the trash bin can autonomously categorize waste.
With the existing solutions presented, this research proposes to create an AI-
powered trash bin. Despite the limited studies about autonomous trash cans, this
research’s unique feature is the ability to convert waste into reusable product. The
use Artificial Neural Network (ANN) in this project allows the AI-powered trash bin
program that makes decisions resembling the processes of the human brain (Park
