Industrial Safety Application Using Ardunio (UNO R3)

Abstract

The aim of this work is to mitigate the destruction engendered due to fire outbreaks in industries like petroleum, chemicals, oil which leads to loss of life and property. It is very important to have some system that can keep the industry premises secure and also to notify the authorized people within the stipulated time in case of an emergency. The IOT industry The IOT industry protection system using Arduino is a system designed to protect industries from losses due to accidents using Internet of things. Gas leakages may lead to fires leading to huge industrial losses, also instant fire detection is needed in case of furnace blasts or other conditions. Also low lighting in industries may create improper work conditions increasing the probability of accidents. The system makes use of Arduino to achieve this functionality. The system makes use of temperature sensing along with light are gas sensing to detect fire, gas leakage as well as low lighting to avoid any industrial accidents and prevent losses. The system consists of light, gas and temperature sensors interfaced with arduino and LCD screen. The sensor data is constantly scanned to record values.

Introduction

I. INTRODUCTION

Internet of Things (IoT) is a network in which all physical objects are connected to internet through network devices or routers and exchange data. IoT allows objects to be controlled remotely across existing network infrastructure. It mollifies human effort and enables easy access to physical devices. It also has autonomous control feature by which any device can control without human interaction. The versatility of IoT has become very popular in recent years because of its low power embedded system, cloud computing, availability of big data networking condition. IoT can be any device with any kind of built-in-sensors with the ability to collect and transfer data. An industrial safety system is a counter measure crucial in any hazardous plants such as oil and gas, nuclear plants. They are used to protect human, plant and environment in case the process goes beyond the control margin. Mechanical Engineering is primarily concerned with industries and their applications. This prototype will benefit the above requirements. The best way of preventing accidents is to be aware of your surroundings. The environmental care has become one of the prime concerns for almost every country in the last decades. Even though the number of industrial accident has been increasing in the last few decades, the current scenarios in the industry have not improved. They tend to be more a dangerous environment rather than a safe one even with a wide range of modern technologies. Recently the current industries have been demanding sophisticated instrumentation for monitoring and control of environmental risk parameters in the danger-prone areas. Human safety and property losses are the essential to maintain a balance between industry and industrial environments.

II. LITERATURE SURVEY

1. Accidents occurring in most Indian industries are a source of concern to everyone. Industries that take worker’s safety and health issues into consideration have a long run. Palanivelu Rajmohan [1], in his paper a survey was initiated in different industrial sectors to obtain reliable data for the research. The results show that the main criteria “Human safety acquired a weight of 72.5% while the respective weights of primary criteria machine security and work environment safety fall to 8.9% and 18.4%.”
2. It is not only used in industries but also in cold storages. Due to increase in concerns of food safety, supply chain management has been developed to integrate with the refrigeration and environmental monitoring especially in the storage and transportation.
3. Y. P Tsang, K. L. Choy [2] propounded the IoT model to ensure occupational health and safety, the limited duration exposure and monitoring review cycle can be customized according to the personal health status of worker. In order to ensure the occupational health and safety in cold storage facilities, the IoT environment is management with real time information exchange and information.
4. A paper by S. Arun Mozih [3] has demonstrated the feasibility of wireless conditioning monitoring system for application in high voltage electrical substations. This system can be used as a device to measure leakage current and voltage in a variety of equipment.
5. A paper by Kartik Srinivas [4] in which he implemented industrial safety automation using IoT by successfully integrating industry safety to the digital world.

III. DESIGN METHODOLOGY

This method can place at the mountain roads, curve roads, and bends. When vehicles is approaching the IR sensor will sense the vehicle. supported the IR sensor instruction the LED changes its respective colours. to point the motive force coming back from the opposite end. If vehicle moving far from the sensor, the sensor will sense the vehicle and therefore the green LED will glow. If vehicle present at either side the LED turns to red colour which indicates to manoeuvre slowly.

V. FUTURE SCOPE

Among recent technologies, the smart sensor technology has been in the spotlight because of its potential, significance, and wide range of application areas. These new systems represent a potentially new generation of detection capability and self-awareness, which are key components of future intelligent systems. Smart sensors, which work as part of micro electro-mechanical systems, work with an increasingly diverse and highly accurate input. Complex multilayered operations such as collecting raw data, adjusting sensitivity and filtering, motion detection, analysis, and communication are the main functions expected of intelligent sensors. They are used in all areas of life, from HVAC systems to traffic management, air conditioning systems, and agriculture.

Our system is such a system which will In the future, smart sensor technologies will have a profound impact on applications such as food safety and biological hazard detection, safety hazard detection and warning, environmental monitoring, health monitoring and medical diagnostics, industrial and aerospace applications, smart antennas, automobiles, and smart highways.

Conclusion

Industrial Safety Automation using IOT has been implemented successfully. The project is cost effective and can be easily implemented for other real time applications. It can be realized with the usage of less power. This project is secure and user friendly and can be employed by the government in large scale to help industries too. By automating an industry, a safe working environment can be created with the available advanced mechanism and the entire system integrated into one network. The industry is substantially safe from fire accidents, voltage fluctuations and gas leakage.
