Abstract

This paper deals with the automated analyzing and retarding of the toxic industrial air contaminants let out by huge chimneys or other outlets at times of peak application process. Air pollution monitoring and control is of extreme importance as it has a direct impact over humans, and their heath conditions. Accordingly, the authors used a wireless sensor network [4] at the chimney tip, acting as a filter which evaluates all the toxic output by sensors (MG811,MQ6, MQ135), which in turn is controlled by a Atmega16 microcontroller's transmitting unit. It is placed at the industrial administration sector, and receives all the sufficient outputs from the transmitting unit. The outputs are simulated graphically and the extend of over-toxic waste are also evaluated under two conditions. The primary condition is to alarm the pollution control sector of both the private and the government department, and the secondary condition is to trip the grid of the industrial power source once the toxic output content is uncontrollable or is above the mark of the default toxic limit as defined by the pollution control board. This part of the system can also be linked with the press and the media for future references and as proof for toxic emissions. Thus, the following paper deals with the automated switching and analyzing of the industrial toxic output content and also acts as a temporary controller of the same.
