Development of an IoT Based Gas Wastage Monitoring, Leakage Detecting and Alerting System

Abstract
Leakage of any sort of gas has become a fear in present times whether it may be domestic house hold, factory, kitchen in any restaurants, canteens etc. In this paper development of an IoT (Internet of Things) based gas wastage monitoring, leakage detecting and alerting system is proposed. This paper elaborates design such an intelligent system that will help save gas and smartly prevent accidents. The system needs to be integrated with the cooker. There are a ultrasonic sensors integrated with the system that will find out if the cooker is being used for cooking purpose or not. If it is found that the cooker is not in use there is automated switching off technique in the system to turn off the supply of gas. The moment gas leakage will probably be recognized, users will be informed via SMS through GSM, so that user can solve the issue as soon as possible. The system will monitor flame and fire through flame sensor. The buzzer starts beeping whenever fire is detected. In addition to these, the system also includes cloud storage feature. With the help of this cloud storage system the use of gas for per day of per user can be monitored. This process will help to detect the misuse of natural gas of per user at the end of the day. The system has been tested and it is able to monitor gas wastage, leakage and send a SMS to the user. The resulting performance indicated its effectiveness toward saving a significant portion of the wasted gas in domestic.
