| dc.description.abstract | This paper presents the development and
implementation of a comprehensive gas monitoring and
leakage detection system for Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG)
cylinders, aimed at enhancing safety and efficiency in gas
usage. The system integrates load cell technology for
precise weight measurements, MQ2 gas sensors for
effective leakage detection, and the Blynk application for
real-time remote monitoring and alerts. Key achievements
include accurate gas level monitoring, timely detection of
gas leaks, and seamless remote access, demonstrating
significant improvements in gas safety management.
Challenges encountered during the project included high
costs of electrical components, calibration of the load cell,
component failures, and the need for self-taught coding
skills. Despite these hurdles, the project successfully
achieved its objectives, providing valuable insights into
electronic component integration, coding proficiency, and
critical problem-solving skills. The report also addresses
limitations such as the limited range of the MQ2 gas sensor,
the accuracy constraints of the load cell, the need for an
external power source, and the structural reliability of using
wood. Future work is proposed to enhance the system's
capabilities, including improved sensor accuracy, expanded
detection range, battery-powered operation, and the use of
more durable materials. The project's significance lies in its
potential to be scaled and customized for commercial use,
offering a robust solution for gas safety in various settings.
The system's ability to provide real-time monitoring and
immediate alerts ensures proactive measures, contributing
to safer and more efficient gas usage. | en_US |
