Monitoring and Measurement of Air Pollution Using Internet of Things
Abstract
Now a days, due to increase in emission of smoke from vehicles, smoke emitted from industries pollution in air density is increasing rapidly and creating health issues day by day in the environment. Since we are unable to control the pollution as an individual, we propose a model which will help the individuals to have a control on them and protect them with their smart phones with the help of an application called Blynk. More than 35% people reside in urban cities in India. The proportion of urban population is constantly climbing and is expected to cross 50% in next decade. This will call for more traffic, more construction and more industrialization. In addition to this, the pollutant can cause acid rain, global warming and distressing the herbal progress. Mostly, a humanoid cannot forecast or decide whether the airborne is good or bad. Therefore a measuring tool is required to check the air quality. The proposed research design is to measure air quality by using esp8266 module and sensors for detecting gases (MQ135) and measuring temperature (LM35) in PPM .The final results of the air quality can be displayed in a smartphone by connecting to Wi-Fi through ESP8266. The recent tech trends based on Internet of Things (IoT) in our research on air quality monitoring plays a significant part. A BLYNK app is created in smartphone where values are directly monitored easily by the users and receives a notification or warning when the quality of air worse.
Keywords: IOT, ESP8266 module, BLYNK, air quality monitoring, air quality index
