Current activities

Utilization of the Internet of Things concepts to improve the efficiency of product services management (Medical Waste Management)

The research focus is to propose a framework for adopting the concept of the Internet of Things in product service management and narrow to Medical Waste Management. Medical waste can be infectious and also the source of virus spread. Until today, medical waste is disposed of by either landfilling or incineration process. The generation of medical waste is increasing and WHO has come up with advice on the best way to handle them safely. However, this advice has not been practiced well enough in some countries as waste management can be an expensive but not commercial industry. Thus, this research looks at the best way to monitor medical waste management objectively to have the same direction as in the Sustainability goal.
