This paper shows the critical role of robotics and automation in waste management, presenting a broad analysis of their integration as a transformative step towards Industry 4.0. However, focusing on the challenges faced by growing cities in efficiently handling waste, the study emphasizes smart waste management solutions and the growing demand for innovative. Key components of Industry 4.0, including Artificial Intelligence (AI), Big Data,the Internet of Things (IoT) and Robotics, are explored for their potential to revolutionize waste management practices. The discussion involves the multidimensional impact of these technologies on waste process such as collection, sorting, and disposal processes. Examples such as the Pneumatic Waste Collection System 4.0 (PWC 4.0) and swarm robotics illustrate practical applications, highlighting their involvement to efficiency, sustainability, and inclusivity. By delving into the soft aspects of smart cities and the domains defined by Professor Dr. Rudolf Giffinger, the paper highlights the broader implications of Industry 4.0 in enhancing the quality of life for citizens. The integration of digital technologies into waste management processes aligns with the global agenda of sustainable development and environmental conservation, positioning it as a significant stride towards smarter and more environmentally conscious cities.
