Municipal solid waste deposition in metropolitan areas has become a major concern that, if not addressed, can lead to environmental degradation and possibly endanger human health. It is important to adopt a smart waste management system in place to cope with a range of waste materials. This research aims to develop a smart modelling method that could accurately predict and forecast the production of municipal solid waste. An integrated convolution neural network and air-jet system-based framework developed for pre-processing and data integration were developed. The results showed that machine learning algorithms could be used to detect different types of waste with high accuracy. The best performers were obtained from neural network models, which captured 72% of the information variation. The method proposed in this study demonstrates the feasibility of developing tools to assist urban waste through the supply, pre-processing, integration, and modelling of data accessible to the public from a variety of sources.
