Water Pollution Monitoring Using RC Boat

Abstract

Water is considered as a basic need for human in their daily life. It is needed in different situations including, at home, in agriculture, in industry and manufactures, in hospital etc. To survive in a good life the quality of water should be monitored on highly level frequently and efficiently. Water pollution can be caused by different factors including large number of people who move from rural environment to urban (as long as the city get more rising number of people the waste management become an issue therefore these can provoke pollution in environment), more industries that provide different kind of waste, erosion etc. Unsafe water could lead to different diseases such as diarrhea, cholera, cancer. Generally, the quality of fresh water is described by chemical, biological and physical content and methods used in monitoring the quality of water usually were Water Sampling, Test Sampling and Investigative Analysis. But these methods are performed by the scientists in laboratories, and are found that they are slow. In this project we proposed an affordable system design for monitoring the quality of waterremotely in river by using technology known as Internet of Things (IOT) and this technology provides the required results in real time. A prototype was designed and developed with the use of hardware component together with the software program for implementing this project. ESP32 microcontroller is used in this project data from the ph sensor, Turbidity sensor and Temperature sensor were directly send to the thingspeaks server for further investigation.
