Fabrication Of air pollution monitor

ABSTRACT

The aim of this project is to DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF air pollution

monitor using sensor. Currently, most world cities have just a few stationary sites

to monitor these pollutants; these are insufficient for providing the spatially and

temporally resolved data that is necessary for properly assessing personal

exposure. This is especially true for complex environments with large and highly

variable emission sources, such as megacities in the developing world (India,

China, etc.). Dense networks of low-cost sensors can provide the granularity

needed to begin to understand the personal exposure complexities that arise when

living and working in an urban environment.

The goal of this project is therefore to develop a more complete

understanding of urban atmospheric chemistry in megacities using low-cost

atmospheric measurement devices, gathering data that can be leveraged by

governments and researchers to mitigate air pollution.

WORKING PRINCIPLE

A catalytic converter is a vehicle emissions control device that converts toxic

pollutants in exhaust gas to less toxic pollutants by catalyzing a redox reaction

(oxidation or reduction). Catalytic converters are used in internal combustion

engines fueled by either petrol or diesel engines.

For automotive catalytic converters, the core is usually a ceramic monolith with a

honeycomb structure. Metallic foil monoliths made of (FeCrAl) are used in

applications where particularly high heat resistance is required. Either material is

designed to provide a large surface area.
