3. Brief description of ongoing/past research done in this area by other institutions: The research aims to develop composting systems that use IoT technology and sensors to monitor and optimize the composting process. The systems are designed to automatically adjust the composting process based on real-time data collected from sensors. The research is being conducted by different universities and institutes around the world, including the University of British Columbia, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, the University of California, Davis, and the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi. There has been ongoing research in the area of IoT-based composting machines and related technologies. Ongoing and past research in the area of IoT-based composting systems has gained significant attention from various institutions worldwide. Here are a few notable examples: University of British Columbia (UBC) [1-2]: Researchers at UBC have been exploring the various methods of making composting systems. Their work focuses on developing smart composting systems that optimize the composting process by monitoring factors such as temperature, moisture levels, and oxygen levels. The goal is to enhance compost quality and reduce the time required for the composting process. Researchers at UBC also identifying Sustainable Markets for Compost Products. University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign [3]: The University of Illinois has been involved in research to develop IoT-enabled composting systems. Their studies involve the integration of wireless sensor networks and data analytics to monitor and control composting parameters. By collecting real-time data on temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide levels, and other variables, the system can make adjustments to optimize the composting process. University of California, Davis [4]: Researchers at UC Davis have been investigating the use of IoT technology in large-scale composting operations. Their work focuses on developing sensor networks that can monitor composting piles and provide real-time feedback on key parameters. By analysing this data, the system can optimize the composting process, improve efficiency, and reduce environmental impacts. Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi [5-8]: The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi has been actively involved in research on IoT-based composting systems. Their studies include the development of smart composting machines equipped with sensors and actuators. These devices monitor and control the composting process by adjusting parameters such as temperature, moisture, and aeration. The aim is to automate and optimize composting operations to achieve better compost quality. The research conducted by different institutions contributes to the development of innovative composting systems that can optimize resource utilization and promote sustainable waste management practices.

5. Description of the project including methodology to be adopted with a special focus on testing and validation of data at each stage of the project: To design an intelligent IOT-based composting machine for households & communities. This start-up initiative will have two revenue-generating models i.e. residential (kitchen-based manuring) and commercial (kitchen-based manuring integrated with vending machine). Residential Based Model of VendCompost Commercial Based Model of VendCompost

6. Residential Model: The residential composting model as shown in Fig. 11 is designed to facilitate kitchen-based manuring for households. It consists of two types: solar-powered and electricity-powered variants, providing customers with options based on their sustainability goals and available resources. The composting process begins with the waste inlet, where users can dump their kitchen waste into the machine. The model incorporates a two-container system to efficiently manage the composting process. Container one serves as the composter, providing the necessary environment for decomposition. It ensures proper aeration, moisture control, and temperature regulation to facilitate the conversion of kitchen waste into compost. Container two is designated for the storage of processed manure. Once the composting process is complete, the composted material is transferred to this container, where it is collected and stored until it is ready for use. The separation of the active composting stage from the storage of the final product allows for a structured and efficient composting process. To ensure user convenience and assistance throughout the composting journey, an IoT-based alert system is incorporated into the model. This system sends notifications and alerts directly to the user's mobile phone, keeping them informed about each upcoming step or action required by the composting machine. The alerts can include reminders for adding more waste material, emptying the container, or any other necessary tasks. By providing timely notifications, the system ensures that users stay engaged and actively participate in the composting process while minimizing the chances of potential issues or mistakes.

8. Commercial Model: The commercial composting model as shown in Fig. 12 builds upon the infrastructure of the residential model but integrates it with a vending machine. This model offers an additional revenue generation opportunity by providing processed manure through the vending machine. Similar to the residential model, the commercial model consists of solar-powered and electricity-powered variants. Customers can choose the power source that aligns with their preferences and available resources. The integrated system combines the composting machine with a vending machine, creating a unique offering. Customers have the option to purchase the processed manure using a point-based system or through cash payments. The point-based system rewards regular users, encouraging them to actively participate in the composting process. To enhance the user experience, the composting and vending machine is IoT-based and equipped with an incorporated display. The display can be connected to a mobile app, providing customers with a seamless interface for managing their composting activities. Customers can enter their details either through the app or on the screen, generating points by regularly depositing waste into the machine. This interactive system promotes customer engagement and participation in the composting process. Furthermore, customers who prefer not to compost can still benefit from the system by purchasing the processed manure directly through the vending machine. This provides an additional revenue stream while promoting sustainable waste management practices within the community.
