Abstract

The motive of the project is to automate the sewage cleaning process in drainage, to reduce the spreading of diseases to human. The black water cleaning process helps to prevent pest infestations by reducing the residues that can attract and support pests. It also improves the shelf life and sensory quality of food products. In the proposed system, the machine is operated with remote control to clean the sewage. Hence, this system avoids the impacts from the sewage waste and its harmful gases. This helps to prevent the mosquito generation from the wastage. The system has a wiper motor that starts running as soon as the set-up is switched on. Two power window motors are connected to the wheel and it is driven with the help of the remote control set-up. The process starts collecting the sewage wastes by using the arm and it throws back the waste into the bin fixed in the machine at the bottom. An arm is used to lift the sewage and in turn a bucket is used to collect them. The set-up runs even in sewage area with water (limited to a particular amount) so that the wastages which floats on the water surface also gets collected. The garbage which affects the drainage is also picked up and removed. This system has limited human intervention in the process of cleaning and in turn reduces spreading of diseases to mankind.
