THE MINI-SUBMARINE DESIGN FOR MONITORING OF THE POLLUTANT AND SEWAGE DISCHARGE IN COASTAL AREA

Abstract

Pollutant and sewage discharge in coastal area is most unmonitored. Its make a slow preventive action by government to protect an ecosystem of coastal area from the environmental damage. The development of mini-submarine vehicle is selected to do the monitoring of pollution and sewage discharge in the coastal area continuously. The robotic technology might be adopted to make the vehicle is most suitable to do the monitoring mission. So that, the vehicle is equipped with the wireless instrument and it can be controlled by an operator on sea surface. The camera is also installed on the vehicle in order to capture the underwater environment and send it to the operator. In this paper, the procedure of a designing mini-submarine for the monitoring of underwater pollutant and sewage discharge in the coastal area is described. Due to the particular mission, the vehicle has to have a good stability and hydrodynamic performances, and also it able to load the entire equipment requirements.
