DEVELOPMENT OF IOT ENABLED FRAMEWORK FOR LPG LEAKAGE DETECTION AND WEIGHT MONITORING SYSTEM

Electronics & communication Engineering

This project outlines the development of an Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled framework for an LPG leakage detection and weight monitoring system, designed to enhance the safety and efficiency of LPG usage in various environments. The core components of this framework include an Arduino controller, gas sensor, LED indicators, a buzzer for audible alerts, a GSM module for real-time notifications, and GPRS for sensor value uploading to the Thingspeak server. The primary goal of this project is to detect LPG gas leaks and monitor the weight of LPG cylinders, ensuring timely warnings and remote monitoring. The system collects data from the gas sensor and load cells, processes it using the Arduino controller, and communicates real-time information to users via SMS notifications and cloud-based data visualization on Thingspeak. The IoT-enabled framework leverages the power of Arduino as the central processing unit, interfacing with a gas sensor capable of detecting LPG gas leaks with high precision. When a gas leak is detected, the system activates LED indicators and a buzzer, providing immediate visual and audible alerts to users in the vicinity. Moreover, the integration of a GSM module ensures that users receive SMS notifications, allowing for timely responses and safety measures. Additionally, the GPRS connectivity facilitates the seamless uploading of sensor values to the Thingspeak cloud server, where users can access real-time data and historical trends through web or mobile applications. This comprehensive project addresses the critical need for LPG safety by combining hardware and software components into a robust and user- friendly solution, ultimately minimizing the risks associated with gas leakage and ensuring the efficient management of LPG cylinder weight.
