IOT Based Smart System for Controlling Co2 Emission

Abstract

Pollution has a major role in damaging our earth. The rapid industrialization, fast urbanization , rapid growth in population, drastic increase in vehicles on roads and other activities of human beings have disturbed the balance of natural atmosphere. It changes the quality of climate and those climate change is brought about by the accumulation of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. One of the greatest environmental problem facing the world today is global warming caused by emission of greenhouse gases. Cabon dioxide ,which is an important constituent of environment is causing a warming effect on the earth’s surface. To save our environment, monitoring and controlling these changes is a big challenge. In terms of a long range control of CO2 emission at their source is a more desirable and effective method through preventive and control technologies. The main objective of this paper is to implement IoT to measure the CO2 emission from public transports, industries and forest fires using Raspberry pi which is sensitive to CO2. The amount of Carbon dioxide emitted is sensed continuously in a city and also finding the area which is polluted the most. Also implement a smart system for early detection of forest fires or wild fires. wild fires, are uncontrolled fires occurring in wild areas and cause significant damage to natural and human resources and the wildfires emits more CO2 gas than assumed in state climate target. These are then integrated to the IOT which is more securable and many services of can be used along with it. This would enable a Simple Notification Service (SNS) to the mobile phone if the particular area is causing higher level of CO2.
