The river pollution has become a prominently environmental problem to human survival. Thus it is in urgent demand for real-time monitoring of river water. However, traditional methods have some disadvantages such as complicated instrument, high cost and cumbersome operation. Herein, we developed wireless conductivity sensor, which forms a monitoring network system based on ZigBee. The node of the...
The change of ecosystem and the surrounding atmosphere by different forms of pollutants (Chemicals and energies) are called environmental pollution. Pollution affects the climate most. The issue of environmental pollution and climate change has become an international concern due to their affects to the physical and biological entities of the environment. In this paper, the main objective is to find...
With the problem of water pollution is more and more prominent, online measurement of various parameters has been a basic requirement for the sake of water quality protection. However, the online monitoring equipment is very expensive, which hampereds the scope and effect of monitoring. Thus, soft measurement technology in industrial sewage which using neural networks and data driven method can be...
Water bodies have seen a rise in chemical pollutants in recent years. Therefore quality testing has become an essential part of treatment. Currently in India, monitoring of water quality is done by physically going to water bodies and collecting samples which are then sent to be tested in laboratories. This is time consuming and inefficient method. To automate this process, water quality monitoring...
Water resource monitoring is very essential in recent years since many factors pollute the water resource and ecosystems, now they are facing increasing threats. Surface gliders are small, reusable autonomous underwater vehicles designed to glide through the water surface while measuring pH, oil spill and other parameters. Here it deals with an accuracy-aware diffusion process using surface gliders...
We present the Autonomous Microbiological Alert Sensor (AMAS), an automatic and remotely-controlled microbiology sensor for field Total Coliform (TC) and Escherichia Coli (E. coli) quantification at remote or difficult-to-access sites. Deployed directly in the environment like a floating buoy, the AMAS is fully waterproof and is capable to perform up to seven independent microbiological determinations...
This paper presents AquApp, an information system for a collaborative sensor network. AquApp deploys information collected from the water bodies of the city of Cartagena. The goal is to monitor the water bodies surrounding the city and to establish the current state of the sea. The system can determine the degree of pollution, water levels and environmental conditions of marine fauna and flora through...
Protection of the natural water resources becomes more and more important issue. Usual way to deal with this problem is to build on-site monitoring station capable for independent measurement of water quality parameters where all the measurement equipment is installed and where all measurements are done. But, in this case a dedicated person is needed which on regular basis will collect the data from...
The development of a surface water monitoring network is a critical element in the assessment and protection of water quality. We developed a prototype of easy to install technology by which the different surface water (e.g. rivers, lakes) quality indicators can be measured. The project pilot area is the Sajó river with 5 monitoring station. Thanks to the modular design of the sensor-tube, the equipment...
Food safety is very crucial in the food industry. It is vital to producing a healthy food for consumers. This research is to determine the critical production processes that cause hazardous effects of the oyster mushroom chips production in a small and medium industry Boyolali Indonesia. Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP) system was applied to analyze the process. HACCP which used in...
This study investigated contamination problems through physical and chemical surface water monitoring. The physical parameters were temperature, conductivity and turbidity while the chemical parameters were dissolved oxygen, pH and ammonium. These parameters were measured at two locations on the lake to monitor the water quality and possible sources of contamination. We evaluated the relationship...
With the raise of global concerns about climate changes and pollution in general, water monitoring became a major topic of interest in geospatial applications. There are a significant number of parameters that need to be monitored in a watershed, and varieties of sensors are used for this purpose. In modern sensor networks, sensors are not just simple data collectors, but also actuators that need...
Monitoring water quality in rivers and treated surface water is crucial to the health and welfare of rural populations. The present research discusses work on the Napo River in the Peruvian Amazon. Several challenges surrounding consistent water quality monitoring exist worldwide. These include resources that must be expended to manually measure water quality, as well as similar resource barriers...
Modern industrial quality monitoring systems are based on optical fibre sensors, microelectronic sensory technology and miniaturized infrared spectroscopy systems based on low-power, low-cost, high-efficient and innovative hardware solutions. The proposed paper presents development work related to create remote control system for monitoring water pollution petrochemical products using optical fibre...
The paper presents development setup we use for design of adaptable sensor node interface to be used as a part of Wireless Sensor Network for wAter QaUAlity monitoring (WSN-AQUA) hardware infrastructure. We introduce WSN-AQUA concept and a set of basic sensors we plan to use for water quality monitoring. Core components of our experimental adaptive hardware node are modern low-power precision ADuCM360...
This paper presents a low cost and holistic approach to the water quality monitoring problem for drinking water distribution systems as well as for consumer sites. Our approach is based on the development of low cost sensor nodes for real time and in-pipe monitoring and assessment of water quality on the fly. The main sensor node consists of several in-pipe electrochemical and optical sensors and...
Continuous real-time water parameters monitoring is a necessity in the context of contemporary water resources management. There is an important research direction towards the development of monitoring systems, which make use of wireless sensor networks for water parameters acquisition. In this paper, we present our on-going work and preliminary findings on the development of a water parameters monitoring...
This paper presents the design and development of a low cost system for real time monitoring of drinking water quality at consumer sites. The system consists of several in-pipe electrochemical and optical sensors and emphasis is given on low cost, lightweight implementation and reliable long time operation. Such implementation is suitable for large deployments enabling a sensor network approach for...
The construction of Gezhouba dam has blocked the migration path of the Chinese sturgeon and forced the formation of a new spawning ground for Chinese sturgeon natural reproduction in the downstream of Gezhouba. The operation of the Three Gorges dam changed the natural course of the river flow and the hydrodynamic characteristics of the Yangtze river. This is bound to affect the aquatic environment...
Combining with the low level of national monitoring and pollution increasingly serious problem, a kind of intelligent environment system for water based on scientific decision-Making and remote analysis is developed, full-coverage and real-time water monitoring network is established because the system possesses remote fixed sites, mobile wireless sites, biological monitoring sites. It can be seen...
