Abstract

Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is widely recognized as a safe option for household cooking. However, in settings like Nigeria, within sub-Saharan Africa, hazardous events related to LPG are not uncommon, often resulting from inadequate handling and utilization practices. Despite LPG's growing popularity for its sustainability and efficiency, safety concerns persist. This study introduces a smart system tailored to boost gas cylinder safety and efficiency. This system incorporates a compact and robust smart platform that integrates various smart components, provides real-time LPG level information, a load cell is available to continuously monitor LPG levels within the cylinder and issues alert upon reaching predefined thresholds. Furthermore, the system can detect gas leaks, promptly alerting users via a buzzer and LEDs. It is recommended for deployment in households, offices, and industrial environments, ensuring safety, convenience, and effectiveness in LPG usage. This research makes a notable contribution to LPG utilization, presenting an innovative solution to the challenges intrinsic to its application.
