Chapter 3: Underwater Waste Segmentation, Design, Implementation, and Experimentation
- Overall architecture and data presentation
- Data preprocessing, augmentation, and splitting
- DL models proposed for segmentation (Mask RCNN and YOLOv8)
- Evaluation metrics and implementation details### Introduction to Underwater Waste Management
- Globally, annual solid waste is expected to exceed 2.2 billion tons by 2025, resulting in waste management costs of $375.5 billion.
- Poor waste management can devastate the economy, public health, and the environment.
- The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has identified recycling of municipal solid waste (MSW) as the second most environmentally friendly method for managing urban waste.
Waste Definition and History
- Waste is defined as objects or substances that are disposed of, intended to be disposed of, or required to be disposed of by national legislation.
- The concept of waste management has evolved over time, from ancient civilizations to modern-day practices.
- Notable events in the history of waste management include:
- 3,000 B.C.: The first landfill was established in Knossos, Crete, Greece.
- 2,000 B.C.: Recycling and composting techniques were developed in China.
- 500 B.C.: Athens, Greece, passed legislation mandating that waste be disposed of at least a mile outside of the city.
- 1757: Ben Franklin launched the first street cleaning business and encouraged people to dispose of their rubbish by excavating pits in the ground.
Waste Management
- The goal of waste management is to reduce the negative environmental, health, and aesthetic impacts of waste.
- Waste management strategies focus on managing municipal solid waste, which is the main type of waste generated by households, companies, and enterprises.
- Integrated import/export techno-economic systems, efficient disposal locations, circular economy management, and environmentally friendly product design are examples of waste management techniques.
Underwater Waste Segmentation using Deep Learning
- The project aims to segment waste into several categories: mask, metal, glass bottles, plastic bottles, plastic bags, electronics, tires, and other waste.
- The approach uses deep learning methods, specifically Mask RCNN and YOLOv8, to segment, recognize, and classify waste in underwater environments.
- The models achieved a mean average precision (maP) of 83.3% for Mask RCNN and 84% for YOLOv8.Here are the study notes:
Waste Management
- "7R" approach: Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Repair, Repurpose, Recycle, and Recover for efficient waste management
- Waste hierarchy: Product reduction, reuse, recycling, and prevention, with the last phase being disposal (landfilling or burning without energy recovery)
Waste Life Cycle
- Begins with design, proceeds to manufacturing, distribution, and primary use, and ends with waste hierarchy stages (reduce, reuse, recycle)
Resource Efficiency
- Minimizing environmental impact of creating and using products, from raw material extraction to disposal
Waste Reduction and Sorting
- Reduce: Focus on needs, fewer purchases, and reduced waste management requirements
- Reuse: Using items for different purposes, such as containers for home or school projects
- Recycle: Boosts economy, creates jobs, and cuts expenses; 10,000 tons of debris generates 36 jobs
Waste Management by Region
- Global waste production projected to increase by 70% by 2050
- Population growth is a main contributor to increased waste production
Smart Waste Management
- Uses intelligent systems to address solid waste management issues
- Provides data on waste trends and behavior, enabling sustainable decisions
Underwater Waste Management
- Waste that ends up in seas, oceans, or other large bodies of water
- Sources include boats, offshore structures, land-based waste, and storms
- Difficult to clean due to large amounts and difficulty in reaching underwater waste
Underwater Waste Risks
- Threatens human health, ecosystems, and marine life
- Plastic waste, chemical, and radioactive waste contaminate the ocean
Underwater Waste Reduction and Sorting
- Essential for marine conservation efforts
- Involves gathering, classifying, and processing waste items found underwater
Underwater Waste Valorization
- Adds value to waste materials found underwater through recycling or processing
Conclusion
- Waste management involves reducing, reusing, recycling, and valorizing waste
Artificial Intelligence
- Simulates human intelligence and problem-solving capabilities
- Includes machine learning, deep learning, and computer vision
