Development of Arduino Prototype for the Detection of Fire, Smoke, and Carbon Monoxide from Open Waste Burning
The open burning of solid wastes has been frequently observed in developing countries like India that emits harmful gases into the environment which causes air pollution. Open waste burning leads to poor air quality, thus resulting in significant health problems. Therefore, frequent supervision of burning events must be imposed by the government authorities. This may be readily accomplished by using an Arduino-based detection system to monitor the required location. This paper presents monitoring of open waste burning and its detection using a set of sensors that is Arduino based. It comprises of a sensor node that is low-cost and easy to be installed in any required place. The sensor node consists of various sensors, which detect open waste burning by detecting the fire and smoke being emitted due to burning. It also gives the air quality with respect to carbon monoxide (CO) concentration of the particular area. The sensor node is able to transfer the sensor data to the host wherein the data is being processed for detection of open waste burning. The prototype of the detection system was put to test in order to check if it could detect the burning and give the level of CO concentration in PPM. It was tested for different cases of burning, such as burning of candle, incense stick, paper waste, cloth waste, plastic waste, and also outdoor burning of wastes.
