IOT BASED WATER QUALITY

MEASUREMENT SYSTEM…
 2

Introduction
The most common method to detect these
parameters is to collect samples manually
and then send them to laboratory for
detecting and analyzing. This method
wastes too much man power and material
resource, and has the limitations of the
samples collecting, long-time analyzing,
the aging of experiment equipment and
other issues.
Sensor is an ideal detecting device to
solve these problems.

Introduction
• Sensors can convert analog information into
electrical signals. It can easily transfer
process, transform and control signals, and
has many special advantages such as good
selectivity, high sensitivity, fast response
speed and so on.
• Hence, Monitoring of Turbidity, PH &
Temperature & other qualities of Water will
designed and developed for future use.
• It will be based on SMS in the GSM network
to instantaneously transfer the collected
data. It also can remotely monitor the water
quality on-line by WiFi to make the system
IoT operated system.

Process description
• As shown in the block diagram, the
appropriate sensor will sense the selected
water quality and display.
• With this the readings will be displayed to
required users centers using IOT based
systems.
• If any water quality exceeds from normal
range of water quality then one alert message
will also be sent to the user to take possible
actions to make the water quality in required
range or in safe state.

Real time operations

• Although water quality is usually
sampled and analyzed at laboratories,
nowadays, citizens demand real-time
information about the water they are
drinking. During the last years, several
companies are deploying worldwide
real-time remote monitoring systems
for measuring water pH, turbidity or
dissolved oxygen levels.
• For Real Time operation we are
making using IoT(Internet of Things)
which will transfer the measured
readings to the required Users at the
actual time when the readings have
been measured.

IoT(Internet of Things)
• IoT is simply the network of
interconnected things/devices
which are embedded with
sensors, software, network
connectivity and necessary
electronics that enables them to
collect and exchange data making
them responsive.
• More than a concept Internet of
Things is essentially an
architectural framework which
allows integration and data
exchange between the physical
world and computer systems over
existing network infrastructure.

Requirements
• ATMEGA-16 controller
• pH electrode(Glass electrode)
• Temperature sensor (18B20)
• TDS electrode (TDS-10)
• Signal conditioning circuit(for pH & TDS)
• WiFi module(ESP 8266-01)

Atmega-16 controller
ATmega16 is an 8-bit high performance
microcontroller of Atmel’s
Mega AVR family with low power
consumption. Atmega16 is based on
enhanced RISC architecture with 131
powerful instructions.

In our project Atmega-16 controller is

used to interface various electrodes or
sensors through inbuilt ADC and IOT
module to get information of specific
water quality and provide it to various
user in specific interval of time.

pH combined Electrode
•Range: pH 0–14 (Some sodium error in ranges greater
than pH 12 due to thicker glass and higher impedance
values)
•Electrode type: Double-junction, sealed, gel-filled,
Ag/AgCl reference, polycarbonate body
•Membrane style: Flat glass
•Storage solution: pH 4/KCl solution (10 g KCl in
100 mL buffer pH-4 solution)
•Cable: 1 meter coaxial cable with BNC connector
•Temperature range:
0– 100ºC
12 mm OD
Impedance: ~20 kΩ at 25ºC
•Response time: 98% of full response in 30 s at 25ºC
 11

Temperature sensor(18B20)
• The DS18B20 Digital Thermometer provides
9 to 12-bit (configurable) temperature
readings which indicate the temperature of
the device. Information is sent to/from the
DS18B20 over a 1-Wire interface, so that
only one wire (and ground) needs to be
connected from a central microprocessor to a
DS18B20.
• Power for reading, writing, and performing
temperature conversions can be derived
from the data line itself with no need for an
external power source.

• The Response Time: <500ms
• Insulation Resistance: 100M Ω [Min]
• The Output One: Analog Output 0-4.5v
• The Output Two: High / Low Level Signal

WiFi Module(ESP-8266-01)
• Wi-Fi or WiFi is a technology that
allows electronic devices to connect to
a wireless LAN (WLAN) network,
mainly using the 2.4 gigahertz
(12 cm) UHF and 5 gigahertz
(6 cm) SHF ISM radio bands. A WLAN is
usually password protected, but may be
open, which allows any device within
its range to access the resources of the
WLAN network.
• Here in our project we are using WiFi
module to communicate with User
networks to provide specific water
qualities readings and alerts time to
time.

Applications
Paper and steel industries.
Water effluent treatment plant.
Ore based industries to measure TDS.
Chemical industries: Fertilizers and chemicals like
Phosphatic Fertilizers and Phosphstic acid plant.
This system is used in commercial and domestic
use.
 Water supply agencies.
For health department to identify the reason of
water dieses.

Advantages

• Due to automation it will reduce the time to check

the parameters.
• This is economically affordable for small scale
industries.
• Low maintenance.
• Prevention of water diseases.

Future scope
Our project uses Real time operation, the concept behind this is that
the readings obtained during the process would be dynamic and with
the help of GSM or Wifi module could be accessed simultanously to
the Governmental Authorities, the concerned Industry and as well as
the Controller or Control room.
It can be high useful in the Clean Ganga Projects who have a mission
of changed and comprenhensive approch to champion the challenges
posed to Ganga through different sectors like;

• Wastewater management
• Solid waste management
• Industrial pollution

All above sectors can be monitored using IOT and thus the Water
Quality can be improved by getting continous status of water quality
mesurements.
