Due to its high sensitivity, low price and fast response speed, gas sensors based on metal oxide nanomate-rials have attracted many researchers to modify and explore the materials. First, pure indium oxide (In2O3) nanotubes (NTs)/porous NTs (PNTs) and Ho doped In2O3 NTs/PNTs are prepared by electrospinning and calcination. Then, based on the prepared nanomaterials, the 6-channel sensor array is obtained and used in the electronic nose sensing system for wine product identification. The system obtains the frequency signals of different liquor products by means of 6-channel sensor array, analyzes the extracted electronic signal characteristic information by means of ordinary least squares, and introduces the pattern recognition method of moving average and linear discriminant to identify liquor products. In the experiment, compared with pure In2O3 NTs sensor, pure In2O3 PNTs sensor has higher sensitivity to 100 ppm ethanol gas, and the sensitivity is further improved after mixing Ho. Among them, 6 mol% Ho + In2O3 PNTs have the highest sensitivity and the shortest response time; based on the electronic nose system composed of prepared nanomaterial sensor array, frequency signals of different Wu Liang Ye wines are collected. With the extension of acquisition time, the corresponding frequency first decreases and then becomes stable; the extracted liquor characteristic signal is projected into two-dimensional space and three-dimensional space. The results show that the pattern recognition system based on this method can extract the characteristic signals of liquor products and distinguish them.

This paper presents the results of studies aiming at the assessment and classification of wastewater using an electronic nose. During the experiment, an attempt was made to classify the medium based on an analysis of signals from a gas sensor array, the intensity of which depended on the levels of volatile compounds in the headspace gas mixture above the wastewater table. The research involved samples collected from the mechanical and biological treatment devices of a full-scale wastewater treatment plant (WWTP), as well as wastewater analysis. The measurements were carried out with a metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) gas sensor array, when coupled with a computing unit (e.g., a computer with suitable software for the analysis of signals and their interpretation), it formed an e-nose—that is, an imitation of the mammalian olfactory sense. While conducting the research it was observed that the intensity of signals sent by sensors changed with drops in the level of wastewater pollution; thus, the samples could be classified in terms of their similarity and the analyzed gas-fingerprint could be related to the pollution level expressed by physical and biochemical indicators. Principal component analysis was employed for dimensionality reduction, and cluster analysis for grouping observation purposes. Supervised learning techniques confirmed that the obtained data were applicable for the classification of wastewater at different stages of the purification process.
