Abstract

Gas leak is one of the main reasons of causing accidents in the petrochemical industry. The effective technical means for timely, accuracy monitoring gas leak is imperative for accident prevention. With recent advances in wireless communication and embedded computing technologies, Gas leak monitoring systems (GLMS) incorporated with wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have become practically feasible. A gas leak monitoring scenario of ZigBee WSN incorporated with the GPRS and ultrasonic gas leak detection (UGLD) is proposed to provide continuous, timely and reliable monitoring and analysis of gas leak parameters for increased sensitivity and specificity. The hardware and software development platform of GLMS is also presented. With its low power, flexible and compact design, the gas leak monitoring system provides a versatile environment for installation, maintaining.
