Android-based incinerator efficiency in handling Covid-19 infectious waste

The domino effect caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has become a serious problem. One of these problems is the increasing volume of infectious waste and household waste from handling COVID-19. The form of handling is often destroyed in incinerators, namely machines used to burn waste involving high temperatures. This paper will try to apply the Internet of Things (IoT) on an android-based incinerator. The stages include design, making tools, designing software and testing tools. The Android-based Incinerator is useful for minimizing the inhalation of particulates by the user, besides that the user also avoids the transmission of diseases or viruses that exist in infectious waste because the incineration process does not need to touch the incinerator. The results of the incinerator test also show that the longer the combustion time and the higher the temperature, the less residue produced, the longer the combustion time and the higher the temperature, causing the less ability to remove ash residue.
