Design and Implementation of a Wireless Gas Monitoring System for Industrial Applications
International Journal of Mechanical Engineering · 2023
The aim of this study is to design and implement a wireless gas monitoring system for industrial applications.The system is designed to detect, monitor, and alert workers of gas leaks in real-time, providing a safer working environment.The system consists of a gas sensor, a microcontroller unit (MCU), and a wireless communication module.The gas sensor is used to detect gas leaks and send the data to the MCU, which processes the data and sends it wirelessly to a monitoring station.The monitoring station displays the data in real-time and sends alerts to workers in case of a gas leak.The system is powered by batteries, making it portable and suitable for use in remote areas.The design and implementation of the system involved the selection and integration of suitable components, as well as the development of software to control the system.The system was tested in a simulated industrial environment, and the results showed that it was able to detect gas leaks accurately and provide realtime alerts to workers.The system is easy to use, reliable, and cost-effective compared to traditional wired gas monitoring systems.It has the potential to be used in a variety of industrial applications, including oil and gas refineries, chemical plants, and manufacturing facilities.
