Deploying artificial intelligence for occupational and environmental health in waste management: a systematic review
By Li W, Ge Z, Wang H and 2 others.
Abstract
Objectives
This systematic review examines how artificial intelligence (AI) mitigates occupational and environmental health risks in waste management, a sector where workers and communities face infectious, toxic, and physical hazards.
Methods
Following PRISMA guidelines, we systematically searched the SCOPUS database and reviewed 81 peer-reviewed articles. The analysis focused on the types of AI technologies applied, their deployment across waste management stages, and the specific health risks they address.
