Abstract

Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is a main source of fuel, especially in urban areas because it is clean compared to firewood and charcoal. Gas leakage is a major problem in the industrial sector, residential premises, etc. Nowadays, home security has become a major issue because of increasing gas leakage. Gas leakage is a source of great anxiety with ateliers, residential areas and vehicles like Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), buses, and cars which are run on gaspower. One of the preventive methods to stop accidents associated with the gas leakage is to install a gas leakage detection kit at vulnerable places. The aim of this paper is to propose and discuss a design of a gas leakage detection system that can automatically detect, alert and control gas leakage. This proposed system also includes an alerting system for the users. The system is based on a sensor that easily detects a gas leakage.

Highlights

  • Gas leakage is serious problem and a days it is observed in many places like residences, industries, vehicles like CNG, buses, cars, etc

  • The Liquid petroleum gas (LPG) or propane is a flammable mixture of hydrocarbon gases used as fuel in many applications like homes, hostels, industries, automobiles, vehicles because of its desirable properties which include high calorific value, less smoke, less soot, and meager harm to the environment

  • Gas leakage detection will provide us the significance in health department and it will lead to raise our economy because when gas gets leaked it contaminates the atmosphere and wastage of gases will down our economy

Summary

Introduction

Gas leakage is serious problem and a days it is observed in many places like residences, industries, vehicles like CNG, buses, cars, etc. The LPG or propane is a flammable mixture of hydrocarbon gases used as fuel in many applications like homes, hostels, industries, automobiles, vehicles because of its desirable properties which include high calorific value, less smoke, less soot, and meager harm to the environment. Liquid petroleum gas (LPG) is highly inflammable and can burn even at some distance from the source of leakage. This energy source is primarily composed of propane and butane which are highly flammable chemical compounds. Home fires have been taking place frequently and the threat to human lives and properties is growing in recent years. Bhopal gas tragedy is an example for accidents due to gas leakage
