    The “BDWaste” dataset contains two significant categories of waste, namely digestible and indigestible, in Bangladesh. Each category represents 10 distinct species of waste. The digestible categories are sugarcane husk, fish ash, potato peel, paper, mango peel, rice, shell of malta, lemon peel, banana peel, and egg shell. On the other hand, the indigestible species are polythene, cans, plastic, glass, wire, gloves, empty medicine packets, chip packets, bottles, and masks. The research uploaded the primarily collected dataset on Mendeley, and the dataset contains a total of 2497 raw images, of which 1234 were digestible and 1263 belonged to indigestible species. Each species is stored in a fixed file based on its name and categories. Also, each species contains an indoor (with a visible surface) and an outdoor (with a surface that can be seen generally) image. The dataset is free from any blurry, dark, noisy, or invisible images. The research also performed waste classification with pre-trained convolutional neural network models such as MobileNetV2 and InceptionV3. The research found the highest accuracy of 96.70% in the indigestible waste classification and 99.70% in the digestible waste classification. The researchers presume that this data can be used in the future in different types of research, such as sustainable development, sustainable environments, agricultural development, recycling processes, and other computer vision-based applications
