SMART GAS AND SMOKE DETECTOR

Abstract

Safety plays a major role in today’s world and it is necessary that good safety systems are to be implemented in places of education and work. This work modifies the existing safety model installed in industries and this system also be used in homes and business premises. One of the preventive measures to avoid the danger associated with gas leakage is to install a gas leakage detector at vulnerable locations. A gas detector is a device that detects the presence of gases in an area, often as part of a safety system. Gas Detector where it can sound an alarm to operators in the area where the leak is occurring, giving them the opportunity to fix or leave. This type of device is important because there are many gases that can be harmful to organic life, such as humans or animals. Containment into any area where the gas should not be present must be avoided. Because a small leak may gradually build up an explosive concentration of gas, leaks are very dangerous. Nowadays, existing gas detector is less effective in usage because the user can only detect the gas leakage when they test by using gas detector. It is dangerous since gas leakage must be identified from early of the leak. That is why the Smart Gas and Smoke Detector was invented to avoid the fire or explosion occur in the houses or premises. This kind of gas detector will detect the gas continuously as long as there is power supply. This project used Microcontroller Arduino UNO at the processor where it process the input from the sensor and to GSM module to communicate with the user by sending an alert through SMS. The benefit of these projects is to prevent the earlier stage of fire because of unattended cooking without a human supervision, could prevent the explosion because of gas leakage.
