A Micro-Controller Based Biogas Leakage and Fire Detection System
Most biogas units in the rural area have no smoke or fire alert safety mechanism. This has always resulted in indoor air pollution and or property damage in case of fire incidence. This unfortunate incident are preventable by installing a simple automated device to alert the owner in the event of smoke or fire for necessary action. This study focuses on a biogas leakage alarm system that alerts the owner via a buzzer, SMS, and call. The device uses an MQ-2 sensor to detect ignitable gas spillage and smoke. This high signal monitored by the Arduino Uno also leads to red LED lighting when the set smoke threshold is exceeded. The systems are portable and can be positioned in an appropriate position in the kitchen. This device is highly recommended in all the kitchens using biogas or firewood to alert the user in case of smoke indoor air pollution or fire breakout.
