Abstract
This paper provides a novel framework for envisioning digital technology application in sustainable waste management. The approach inclines on a mini-conceptual framework, which is rooted in the bourgeoning of diverse software innovation, which offers numerous digitalization of waste management recess. It first concedes that digital age brings to fore some enabling technology that offer a lift to transform traditional waste management to an unprecedented quick and cleaner dimension. Although not exhaustive, it highlights some popular digital apparatuses available for individuals, organisations and the government to take advantage for reforming traditional waste management techniques. These include ultrasonic trash can sensor, solar-powered trash compactor, image-based trash can sensors, toogoodtogo, digital mapping and cloud-based life-cycle waste cost calculator. Accordingly, this mini-framework for digital application to waste management provides a stepping ground to enable further expansion of the framework for enhanced policy, practice and scholarship
