The invention belongs to the field of public facilities, and particularly relates to a garbage can capable of achieving dry-wet separation and automatic lid opening. The garbage can comprises a can body, the can body is fixedly connected with a transmission ground, the side wall of one side of the can body is fixedly connected with a liquid collecting can, a support is fixedly connected between the can body and the liquid collecting can, and a transmission cavity is formed in the support. According to the garbage can capable of achieving the dry-wet separation and automatic lid opening, by means of the gravity of a human body, a double-trigger switch acts, automatic lid opening can be achieved, meanwhile, electrorheological fluid can be converted between solid and liquid, a cover plate canbetter press garbage and close the can body, meanwhile, a sliding plate can be matched with the cover plate to move, waste liquid in the can body is sucked, dry-wet separation is achieved, a degradation cylinder can be matched with material scattering to realize pretreatment of the waste liquid and avoid irritant gas generated by fermentation of the waste liquid, and in addition, the device is powered by solar energy, so that the cost of additionally laying a circuit is avoided.
