Development of an Autonomous Remote Access Water Quality Monitoring System

<p>Due to the vast increase in global industrial output, rural to urban drift and the over-utilization of land and sea resources, the quality of water available to people has deteriorated greatly. Before the sensor based approach to water quality monitoring, water quality was tested by collecting the samples of water and experimentally analyzing it in the laboratories. However, in today, with time being a scarce resource, the traditional method of water quality testing is not efficient anymore. To tackle this issue, several electronic (microcontroller and sensor based) water quality monitoring systems were developed in the past decade. However, an in depth study of this current water quality testing technology shows that there are some limitations that should be taken into consideration. Therefore, an automatic, remote, and low cost water quality monitoring system has been developed. This system consists of a core microcontroller, multiple sensors, GSM module, LCD display screen, and an alarm subsystem. The quality of water is read from the physical world through the water quality testing sensors and sent to the microcontroller. The data is then analyzed by the microcontroller and the result is displayed on the LCD screen on the device. At the same time, another copy of the sensor readings is sent remotely to the user’s mobile phone in the form of SMS. If an abnormal water quality parameter is detected by any sensor, the alarm system will turn on the respective red LED for that parameter and the buzzer will give warning sound. At the same time, the abnormality of the water parameter is reported to the user through SMS. The system is aimed to be used for wide applications and by all categories of users. It can facilitate the process of water quality monitoring autonomously and with low cost; to help people improve their quality of drinking water, household water supplies and aquaculture farms, especially in rural areas where residents do not have access to standardized water supply and suffer from different diseases caused by contaminated water.</p>

The decrease in quality of water resources has become a common problem. The standard methods of water quality surveillance include water sample manual collection from various locations. These water samples were tested in laboratory using intelligence capabilities. Such approaches take time and are no longer considered inefficient. The old method of water quality detection was time consuming, less accurate and expensive. By focusing on the above problems, IOT can be used to monitor water quality in real time, a low cost water quality monitoring system. Water quality parameters in the proposed system are measured by various sensors such as pH, temperature and dissolved oxygen to transfer data on a platform via a microcontroller system. Therefore, to meet these needs, you can use other technologies such as MQTT (Message Sorting Delimiter Transform), allowing the Sensor and End device rankings to publish and subscribe. And the number of data simultaneously between sensors and servers with the help of the MQTT algorithm.

Monitoring the quality of water and its proper management is crucial for any industrial and economic application. The global shortage of water demands a sustainable solution to optimize its usage. The Internet of Things provides a robust and cost-effective solution for real-time monitoring of various parameters of water. The paper aims to implementan intelligent water quality monitoring system with the aid of IoT. The proposed system was successfully implemented to determine the turbidity, TDS, flow rate and the level of water for a given sample. The data obtained from the sensors are uploaded to the ThingSpeak dashboard for online monitoring purpose. Besides, an SMS alert is sent to the user whenever the turbidity and TDS values have crossed the threshold limit defined for good quality water.

Quality Of Water

<p>There is huge number of disease which is caused through water drinking that being polluted was supplied to the consumer. This is something that cannot be underestimate because it can cause high cost of treatment or death. Its not only cause troubles to the consumer which is human, it is also included all aquatic life and surrounding ecosystem. There is way to overcome this problem that created before which is take the sample of water to the lab. The result of water being polluted or not will be released by the lab. But this system going to take lot of times because there are few process that should be followed. This system is not suitable anymore because it is not portable, easy and fastest. It should be upgraded to the IoT system because it can cut times, internet base and people will be more alert to the quality of water. Therefore, a real-time water quality monitoring system is proposed in this research to reduce number of fatality happened from water.</p>

Newly developed mobile phone applications in combination with citizen science are used in different fields of research, such as public health monitoring, environmental monitoring, precipitation monitoring, noise pollution measurement and mapping, earth observation. In this paper, we present a low-cost water quality mobile phone measurement technique combined with sensor and test strips, and reported the weekly-collected data of three years of the Ayeyarwady River system by volunteers at seven locations and compared these results with the measurements collected by the lab technicians. We assessed the quality of the collected data and their reliability based on several indicators, such as data accuracy, consistency, and completeness. In this study, six local governmental staffs and one middle school teacher collected baseline water quality data with high temporal and spatial resolution. The quality of the data collected by volunteers was comparable to the data of the experienced lab technicians for sensor-based measurement of electrical conductivity and transparency. However, the lower accuracy (higher uncertainty range) of the indicator strips made them less useful in the Ayeyarwady with its relatively small water quality variations. We showed that participatory water quality monitoring in Myanmar can be a serious alternative for a more classical water sampling and lab analysis-based monitoring network, particularly as it results in much higher spatial and temporal resolution of water quality information against the very modest investment and running costs. This approach can help solving the invisible water crisis of unknown water quality (changes) in river and lake systems all over the world.
